Damn, an Xbox 360 Pro for $250? That’s just about good enough of a price to tempt me to get a second system.
If these Target ads that we saw on engadget are real and correct, the Xbox 360 60GB Pro will cost only $249 (free 2nd controller!), while the 120GB Elite will only be $50 more. These are supposed to be next week’s ads, so these prices may be set to go into effect by Sunday, August 30th.
We all expected Microsoft to go toe-to-toe with Sony and their price drop, and now it looks like it’s happening. To me, it seems to have less of an impact than the PS3 drop did. Not to sound like a total PS3 fan boy, but I would rather Microsoft stuck in WiFi and kept the price the same.
It’s still great news, though, and it will surely pay off this holiday for them.
