About Me

Hey, my name is Travis. I have played vidja games since I was a wee lad, growing up on the N64, followed by the Saturn, Dreamcast, Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii, and lastly, the PSTriples. I think this is the start of a beautiful relationship.

Scrixx owes me 5 dollars. NEVAR FORGET.

360 Price Drop: REDUX!
T-rav \| 12:41 AM on 07.15.2008	9 comments

According to an interview by MTV Multiplayer with Shane Kim, Microsoft Corporate VP, Microsoft will be giving the Xbox 360 yet another price drop at an undisclosed date. This goes without saying, so what's the shocker? The aimed price point is said to be a paltry $199. The "Xbox 360 is some time off from hitting $199, but Kim said they’re on their way.".

With the 360 just recently getting a $50 cut and a number of triple-A titles on the way for the holiday season, I can't see this happening soon without Microsoft taking a huge financial blow. It just seems a bit unrealistic to expect this any time soon. Although it would be nice...delicious even. When do you guys think we will see such a massive price drop?

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

5 months before the next Xbox comes out.

Yeah, I don't see this happening soon either, but the thought of a $199 Xbox 360 tickles my fancy. Reminds me of the Dreamcast, that price point does. <3

T-rav

@Brainderailment: Yeah, I see your point. We have DLC for triple-A titles, does that count? XD But yes, I know what you mean, it's a bit of a buzz word.

nail on the head Mrsadistic *appluase*

50$ price drop to the version that is already 249$ without a HDD, just take away the game and add a wired controller and you got yourself a 199$ system.

It'll happen next spring once 360 sales slump off again.
