Well it's only natural. Very sweet price point, and very enticing design. Along with great software coming, this will be Sony's best Holiday period this gen yet.

I love when people say this will be Sony's best holiday season this gen... Of course it will be, it can't be much worse can it?

Elaine: I will never understand people

Jerry: They're the worst.

Yet even at the higher price points PS3 has outsold 360 over the same period. So so terrible. But now, the price cut.

PS3 fanboys got insecure on GAF when 360 dropped to $199 a year ago

According to amazon.com

http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/videogames/ref=pd_ts_zgc_vg_video_games_display_on_website_more?pf_rd_p=475985451&pf_rd_s=right-5&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=468642&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=00GEDEX8GH9AHK9NKV07

The slim version of the PS3 has now raced up to the #1 selling video game item , the PS3 80gb has come back from the grave from its 63rd spot on amazon to now the #10 spot and quickly rising.

As for gamestop,

http://www.gamestop.com/browse/search.aspx?N=0&No=48

The ps3 has now moved up to the top selling console on the site thus far

Well duh!! lol!! It just got a $100 price cut, so of course it's going to race up the charts. Same thing happened when Microsoft cut the price on the Xbox 360 last September. This is no surprise. We'll see how they do during the holidays.
