    Sony Makes The First Move......PS2 Price Down To $199

    The only problem with your theory Jed, is the fact that Nintendo is still minting money. Sega didn't pull out of the industry because they didn't have exclusive third-party titles; they pulled out because their accountants were seeing red. For Nintendo to pull out of the next generation, their...

    Sony Makes The First Move......PS2 Price Down To $199

    More rumours. According to a PGC informant at a retail chain, stores are recieving new signage indicating a "New Low Price" for the GameCube. My guess is they'll drop it to $149.99. I already have one, but an Xbox is in my sights for next week.

    Well things are getting hectic. Rumours are all over BBS's across the 'net that Microsoft upped their price-drop date to tomorrow. Even though it's a rumour, I'll bet a pretty dime on it.

    Steve, you assume that because Sony didn't announce the price-cut weeks ahead, that it didn't have it planned. This would also mean you assume all business stategies are announced to the public, which is not true. Microsoft had an inflated price-cut balloon just waiting to burst during E3...

    Sony Makes The First Move......PS2 Price Down To $199

    $150 or less for an Xbox is wishful thinking. At that price, people would snap them up ungodly quick. I'd get one just to use as a secondary DVD player. $199 will hold though. Even though there's a price war, both companies don't want to run each other into the red that quickly. $150 for...

    Sony Makes The First Move......PS2 Price Down To $199

    Here are a couple quotes to chew on. The first one is regarding Nintendo's Euro launch: "The average age of a Nintendo GameCube owner, however, is according to Nintendo itself 23 years." This next one deals with Capcom's lineup into 2003. Here is simple proof why Sony has unmatched developer...
