The price was dropped quite a while ago, and it's still making such a difference? Hawt damn.



^$200 price point still makes it the cheapest this gen at the moment. Not that it reflects on the sales kind of lately, though...

I am just surprised by how long the effect has been going. I laughed when Microsoft called it the "magic price point", but I'll be damned if it doesn't seem to be right at this point in time.

1m up for 360 and 0.25m down for PS3 is amazing really.

 

That's the price drop causing that YoY change.

Now, the big 360 week over week drop, is interesting.  Why is PS3 so close this week, at its price?  What will happen with Advent Children?

Hah, might as well be a quote from Sony.  Come on guys, drop the price!!  Actually, I think they're content with steady boosts from big releases through the holidays when they'll explode the shit with a price drop.
