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.
