It wasn't any secret that the Xbox 360 was getting a price cut in the next week or so, and now it's official -- Major Nelson just confirmed that as of September 5th, the Arcade will be $199, the Pro will be $299, and the Elite will be $399. No motion controller, goofy Live starter pack, or tweaked controller to be found, but we're not arguing with price cuts.Update: Here's the Microsoft press release.

Is this preparation for a sequel to the 360? XBox 720 anyone? It's all just pretty graphics to me. I didn't really increase my fun factor any more than a souped up PC. If it's just all graphics you want, just wait for the 720 or PS4.
