Probably just a type on the gamestop newsletter, but who knows.

thatd be way too quickly...

would be a nice gameplan for us. Release the console with barely any releases, then price drop it just in time for the boat-load of games coming out

looks like a typo...i\'ve heard that sony might possibly drop the price for this christmas season, probably nothing significant, if there is one, i\'d say the new price at the most would probably be around 550.00 and at the very least 570.00....still pretty pricey...

Nah I dont think the price drop will be that less. Sony knows that they need a price drop and this is what they are discussing right now I am sure.

I am expecting $100 the least(price drop).

i\'d be shocked if they dropped it by 200$.

although it would give me a reason to rofl at the haters that have been puking all over the internet that the PS3 is a failure.

probably faked, very easy to edit the html locally and printscreen it.

sega seems to think sony needs a price cut....


http://www.gamespot.com/news/6173530.html?tag=latestnews;title;3


Some of what sega is sayin\' is true as far as exclusives are concerned. Sony\'s lost alot of their exclusives, not really sure if that is due to the technology of the ps3 or just bad marketing. Heh, some of the comments made by people following the article are funny...people in the gamespot audience are extremely young and ignorant, they must have strickly kids no older than 12- 14 years old postin\' over there...

Sega needs to start making good games again before they start whining.

Funny that there are a few PS3 exclusives from Sega coming up, notably Rally 3, so they obviously have alot of faith in the platform.

That should be lack of userbase, PS2 wasnt as easy to develop for as the competitors and it was the least powerful yet developers choose to make exclusives for it than XBOX or the GC

Noway they are gonna drop it by that much. I don\'t see them dropping it all. Still losing a boat load on each machine. Hey would be nice but like MM said I think its fake.

who\'s driving the price cut in those ad\'s? It seems like the stores themselves are doin\' some type of sale on ps3\'s rather than it being an official price cut from sony....either way i\'ll take it tho...:)

that look like a 100$ price drop starting just after E3.

add this with the 5 free BR movie promotion/ and it makes a real deal :D
can\'t see why not!

Welcome back to the console war, Sony. I am starting to regret buying a 20gb ( i did swap out the HDD for a 120), but it was all i could find at launch. I think they should drop it to 479, and an HDMI device, to compete directly with the Elite, and Sony should emphasize the large 360 failure rate. (MS did just announce a 3 year warranty, which will cost them 1.5 billion.) They said they hardware failure rate is unacceptable. I am on my 3rd 360 myself.

I\'ve had my 360 for more than a year, and zero problems.
