Isnt competition fun?]]>Jul 9th 2007 1:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/360 is outselling the PS3 and I doubt that it will ever be able to outsell the WII.

To have a price difference of just $50 for the Elite is ludicrous.

Microsoft should include the overpriced ($100) WiFi lan adapter and sell the ELITE for an even $500.

You could leave the Premium at $399 and still keep selling well.]]>Jul 9th 2007 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/if the core had a HDD, I could use it as a media center extender, and literally Play 360/watch whatever i wanted in the 2 rooms with HDTVs in the house, for $250 thats not that hard to swallow.

As for Big,
why the hell would you want something less consumer friendly?
Also, a price cut boosts sales.
while i agree that the wifi adapter should be built in on the elite, they could STILL add that and then sell the elite for $450, since a wifi adapter only costs about $15-20 wholesale. Price cuts don't usually come when the company isn't making a profit off the system(in Sony's case), but the 360 has been profitable for quite a while now, there's no reason MS shouldn't look to boost sales with a price cut, which in the end will benefit MS more than by keeping the current price point, with the profits from games and accesories likely exceeding the profit on the console it's self.(I myself would buy an extra game with the money saved, and others who couldn't afford a 360 before, now can).

As for not outselling the wii ever... don't make me laugh. In enough time people will realize that the Wii only has about 3 games, and i doubt the wave of popularity that is driving the wii's sales can last until the games coming at the end of the year. As a wii owner, thats the opportunity i'm looking forward to, to buy myself a 3rd game for it finally.]]>Jul 9th 2007 3:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 3:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 1:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 1:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 1:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 3:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 5:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
Funny thing is I bought my PS3 from Best Buy for $599.99 on July 2nd to take advantage of the free 5 Blue Ray movies deal. So, when I saw this news this morning I immediately printed Circuit City's ad with $499.99 so I could bring to Best Buy for price match. I then noticed that Best Buy online had the same price so I also printed that one. I then did a little experiment. I went to my nearest Best Buy, Natick, MA, and showed the CC add to the Customer Service rep there. They said that couldn't be true as the lowest they could sell was $599.99. So what I did next, and you guessed it, I pulled out the Best Buy print out for the guy - TOUCHE! Cue in cash register catching sound byte. Got my $115.00 back :) That's Best Buy's 110% price match promise for you.]]>Jul 9th 2007 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
Now i don't claim to be an expert at math in the least.... but i fail to see how a "110% price match" on a $500 console is $115.
even if it was a 110% on the difference($100), wouldn't you have just got $110? unless the tax was $5... then i want to live in your state. stupid 8% sales tax. ]]>Jul 9th 2007 3:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Elite at $380
Premium at $299 -
Kill the CORE SKU... it's useless.

Now your closer to Wii with the premium. For $50 over the Wii, MS can more effectively compete against the Wii on price just on the fact that 360 is HD and has a MUCh better processor... and games.

You're a retard!

Why would M$ want their sales handed over to Nintendo, its better for them to continue producing a small percentage of cores for the people who cant afford/dont want/dont need a HDD. ]]>Jul 10th 2007 12:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
Anyway, MS's hand is pretty much forced here. Halo is great but with the games the PS3 has got in the pipe for this holiday season a $20 price difference would have easily been justified.

Problem is with this new 3 year warranty that's really gonna hit Redmond's pocketbook pretty hard...large and as stuffed with money as it may be.]]>Jul 9th 2007 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 9:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
if this comes true count the ps3 as still dead, not to mention come christmas when the 360 "premium packs" start again with 2-3 games for the same price lol]]>Jul 9th 2007 1:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.digg.com/xbox_360/XBox_360_Price_Cut_in_the_Works_as_well]]>Jul 9th 2007 2:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
More likely related to the channel stuffing Microsoft did at Christmas. Expected move from Microsoft. Though I have to imagine the hit they are taking financially is getting crazy. And the other problem is. They still haven't fixed the design defects in the 360. The 360 will help but I keep hearing reports that it's more than just the heat problem (s). Scratched disks come to mind.
A billion.That's like a hit of $85 dollars per console. Unbelievable. I respect MS for doing the honourable thing, but I still don't trust the hardware.]]>Jul 9th 2007 6:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
Elite = $399.99
Premium = $324.99
Core = $249.99

However, MS has a history of keeping the price static and including more pack-ins. So it is also likely that the prices will remain the same (or drop less like maybe $25) but they will add Forza 2 for free.

I hope they just drop the price as much as possible rather than go the bundle route.

Right. Microsoft will continue to put out consoles that break and all of a sudden, Sony and the PS3 will drop off the face of the earth. Sony has too much money to let the PS3 become a failure. Every game you've seen up until this point is a port or a crappy rushed copy (with the exception of a couple).

Someone in another Anti-PS3 article said it best, the PS3 was released too soon. We'll see how things fare this holiday season. For the record, I'm not a fanboy, I too own all three consoles. Just wish some people would be a little more open-minded. ]]>Jul 9th 2007 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
Core Price Drop + small HD
Elite will become the Premium
New Elite will emerge at 65nm w/ 200GB drive and/or WiFi

If that happens I'll gladly pick up the "New Elite" with HDMI and the die shrink and will run it as a Media Center Extender/Gaming Console at home. Of course, I'm probably wishing for too much, but I remember reading that the Elite was only a limited time deal and would eventually drop to become the de facto Premium. I think that Microsoft's double dipping us. It offered a new SKU for two reasons...one was to test to see whether a third tier of hardware would sell (it will) and the other was to provide a sort of downstream sales pipeline for aging inventory as the technology and hardware mature. The 360 still has 3-4 years in it as a top-tier piece of equipment before they come out with a next-gen console and it could continue with strong sales if they keep refreshing the SKU's throughout that period.

Microsoft has already injected Media Center into Vista to get themselves into the living room. The 360 was a further effort to continue that trend. I suspect our next-generation Microsoft gaming console will have CableCARD support and will seek to be an all-in-one device. Media Center Extender, Gaming Console, Set-Top-Box. ]]>Jul 9th 2007 2:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 2:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
I'm waiting until the new revisions of the 360 come out with the smaller-process CPU/GPU. That should keep power consumption and heat down.]]>Jul 9th 2007 3:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
With this price drop happening (if it does), I will get an Elite for sure.]]>Jul 9th 2007 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 7:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/

As you can see, before the price drop, for both of them to have equivalent functionality, the Xbox 360 Elite is cheaper.

Once the price of both systems drops, the 360 will win again.]]>Jul 9th 2007 10:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/

No, the 60 Gig won't work. You need to have an equivalent amount of memory in order to have similar functionality, but if you wanna' go that route thats fine with me.

Oh, I was also talking about before the price drop, so I guess I will just mark down the 360's impending price drop as well.

Xbox 360 premium - $350
Wireless adapter - $45 (Any one will do)
HD-DVD - $200

$595

PS3 - $500
Bluetooth headset - $50
HDMI - $10 (cheapo)
Blu-ray remote - $25 (forgot that last time)

$585

Win: PS3

If you want to get the best that can come with your system.

Xbox 360 Elite - $480
HD-DVD - $200
Wireless Adapter - $50(Linksys adapter; higher quality than the Xbox adapter)
Remote - $20

Total - $750

PS3 - $600
BlueTooth headset - $50
Sony HDMI cable - $50 (a ten dollar cable is not going to have equivalent picture quality to the 360's included or the Sony's home brand cable or even high quality top brands)
2.5" Laptop hard drive 120GB - $70 (cheapest on NewEgg)
Blu-ray media remote - $25

$795

It depends on what you get to determine which one costs more, but heres the thing. Xbox has a TON of EXCELLENT games coming out as well, while PS3 has a few alright ones, and the rest are all crap. Not to mention that Sony is losing a LOT of their exclusives to the Xbox. Add in the fact the superior online community and online services, download speeds, customization, download library, and the fact that the 360 is more powerful over all than the PS3 is. Their pretty matched systems, but the 360 is the better machine.

PS3 - 10% restocking fee - $60 (when you realize you bought an inferior product :P )]]>Jul 10th 2007 1:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
Your own math, even after the price cuts you speak of place PS3 in a better light.

Further, there has been no price cut announcement of XBox, and the PS3 is the only True 1080p system on the market! No doubt the HDDVD (which is a crummy platform doomed to failure to begin with) drive that you get for the XBox is a component connection.

Bottom line: XBox specs can't touch PS3]]>Jul 10th 2007 9:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/

Really? Macs blow ass. That ends that issue...

No, it depends on what you purchase. In most cases, it puts the 360 in a better light. Besides, wireless fidelity sucks for online gaming, and is and always will and should be a last resort. Otherwise, it is totally useless, therefore, nearly all Xbox users wouldn't use it even if it was built in. Why do I say this? Because most people's routers are right beside their television, meaning that WiFi is simply stupid.

Only true 1080p system on the market? Uh, Xbox 360 Elite? That is 1080p. Besides, 1080i is pretty much NO different than 1080p, especially when you sit more than 1 inch away from your TV. Also, I can get 1080p out of my standard Xbox through my component cables.

HD-DVD is a crummy platform? Well maybe its a good thing that Microsoft DIDN'T build it into the 360. Besides, for movies, there is no reason to get Blu-ray over HD-DVD. They look exactly the same and play at the same resolution. There is no need for 50GB discs for games OR movies.

Component connection? Really? Its actually USB, meaning you don't necessarily have to use it for your Xbox; you can also use it on your PC. It also depends on what Xbox you get as the Elite has HDMI.

Bottom line (if you look at the numbers and know what the fuck you are talking about without just spouting shit): Xbox's system specs rape PS3. It has more power than the PS3, and as you know, there is no replacement for displacement.

supposedly the "falcon" 65nm GPU/CPU's are being produced as we speak and are going to be ready for sale this fall, just in time for HALO 3 and a price cut.

Things might get VeRy interesting in the coming months...]]>Jul 9th 2007 5:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/Jul 9th 2007 6:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
You don't know whats going on, do you? The new chips don't add any performance advantages. The only thing it does is keep it cooler inside the case and uses less energy. If people could keep their systems cool (ie: remove it from an enclosed space), then their won't be any problems... Especially since Gears of War uses more of the GPU and CPU than Halo will since the graphics engine is much more complex than Halo's.

Oh, and for you Halo fanboys, those "campaign" screenshots are not any indication of what the game will look like in single player. It will look like the beta but with antialiasing effects, anisotropic filtering and better effects. No way will it look better than GoW.]]>Jul 9th 2007 6:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
cooler chips and MUCH cheaper to produce too, hence the talks of price cut. Maybe this is why there's a shortage of 360's??? there are only 2 manufacturing facitilies now (flextronics and celestica), Wistron's contract expired July 1.
SO, if they moved over to the new manufacturing process, i could see why there'd be a shortage (hinted at in the engadget OP)... Or, maybe it's just b/c wistron quit, leaving only 2.... But, we know they're going to do it, no matter how little they say about it....

I dunno if Sony's close to 65nm either, but, it's obvious they had to do SOMETHING..

A price drop for PS3 after only 7 months is pretty much unheard of.... so, that was a desperation move.

i think MS will be more ready for theirs, even with the billion dollar payout for the 3year warranty.

If this is the case, MS is in a GOOD spot right now, even with Sony's announcement.. next step will be even smaller/cheaper (45nm)... but that won't come until the "slim" 360, lol....]]>Jul 9th 2007 7:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/microsoft-has-xbox-360-price-cuts-in-the-works-as-well/
