I agree, and I think they'll cut price by another $100 early next week.

well there's always rumors about the next sony big move weeks before it happend so next week seems unlikely but I think it would be a really stupid move by sony, I mean they already getting their ass kick with a 299$ by the xbox this week, I'm sure they don't want to get their ass kick again next week with a 199$ ps3, you smell me

Well, they were also getting their asses kicked with a $399 PS3 but were forced to cut prices or suffer an even bigger beating over the holidays. I think this vicious cycle will only continue. I predict more and more price cuts until we see them handing out free PS3s by New Year's, and they'll be paying consumers $50 to take a PS3 by no later than April 2010.

So it's been two weeks since Sony annouced the Slim and the price cut and the Ps3 still ain't selling Sh!t, so another pricecut should help it. when do you think Sony will drop the price again, and please no fanboy biased keep the ''it's doing fine'',''it's only been 2 days since the official release'' to yourself


I think Sony will drop the price again in early 2010 they'll be to depresse during Christmas time to do it, also the Ps3 doing bad might force them to pressure PD into a early gt5 release and keep in mind this is 100% serious matter

In the future, do some research before beginning with such an OP. Also, the price is fine where it is, and I imagine it'll be this price until at least late 2010, if not till Summer of 2011.

I don't get it, didn't they annouce it on august 23?



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

hmmmmm.... there's a lot off sence in your reasoning, this might work for sony. Ps3 FTW

Oh dear...well anyway, I will post!

I reckon that in the US the price will remain at $299 until late 2010 at the very least...I reckon it could be 2011 before the price drops again in the US.

In the EU especially the UK I reckon the price will drop quicker. The current £249 price is only £30 cheaper than what retailers were selling the 80Gb's at previously. But I reckon they will reduce the price in the UK to £199 sometime in 2010 maybe mid year or so.



Prediction (June 12th 2017)

Permanent pricedrop for both PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro in October.

PS4 Slim $249 (October 2017)

PS4 Pro $349 (October 2017)

Er, PS3 Slim was just release today in Japan.

Next price cut in my opinion: Summer 2011, $50 price cut.
