    (rumored) Early Sept price reduction on X360 hardware:

    • Arcade (no hard drive) to $199
    • Pro (60GB) to $299 
    • Elite (120GB) to $399


    whats your reaction?

    makes sense as an answer to sony's mgs4 bundle and 80gb $399 ps3

    I don't care because I bought a Premium when it was $499.

    Still like Sony's pricepoint better though.

    Lower prices help sell more consoles.  Doesn't affect me since I've already got two and don't need a third.

    they can drop the price as much as they want, there still won't be any good games for it.

    Why do you have to be a fanboy, are you forgetting Fable 2, Gears 2?

    I'm very much looking forward to Gears or War 2, but not at all interested in Fable 2. Every other game that I've liked has had serious problems, like Viva Pinata, Forza 2 and Mass Effect.

    It's just my personal taste in games, but Xbox 360 doesn't have a lot of exclusives I'm interested in.

    My reaction reflects that. You can call me a fanboy if you want, mr. sony loyalist (what does that even mean?) but I can't change the way that I feel.

    'PlayStation Loyalist' means I favor PlayStation more then the alternative, basically. Like a fanboy, minus all the bullshit. But yeah I guess I see what your saying, kinda. In terms of this year they don't have THAT much, and in 09, well they have almost nothing compared to PS3. Now look what you have done, got me talking PS3 in a 360 board. Enough! XD
