Do you think they'll drop to 299? I wouldn't be surprised since Phil said they're expecting a PS4 price cut and have a plan to counter it. They did 349 last year and have to better that, too.I highly doubt it. The last thing you want to do is condition consumers to expect an annual $50 price cut. Not to mention, last year, going from a $399 standalone console to a $349 package of a console + 2 games is a huge leap in value. There is very little chance MS will match that kind of jump even with a $50 price cut unless they want to eat big losses. MS can't do a temporary price cut either because XBO sales tanked at the beginning of January. When you cut the price, you can't go back.
