360 price cut not coming anytime soon

The other day we reported on rumors that internally Microsoft was taking an Xbox 360 price drop seriously. Well, the Gamerscore Blog crew was quick to squash our hopes of a cheaper 360 by getting an official response from the guy who made the comment, David Hufford. In response to Bloomberg's article, Hufford says that "the comment, which is accurately reported, unfortunately has now been taken way out of context and being reported as if I am signaling a price drop. I was not, I am not". David says that his comment was made two months ago in regards to discussing NPD sales numbers and chatting generally about hardware pricing. So, he wasn't commenting on Microsoft's specific 360 pricing strategy and therefore no price cut ... sorry guys.
