XBOX Price to drop...

[no1cardfan]

Estimates around $149

[Soocrates]

Could be do to the fact that the new PS2 with a HD is coming out. MS drops their price cause they already have a HD, and it hurts Sony... JMHO.. Could be wrong.. Peace..

GO !!!

They're trying for one last horrah.


They still havent' cought PS2 in terms of console sales, and are still swimming in red ink. I think the division is just trying to cut their losses and build the name to try and get a second generation xbox on steady ground.

BBZ,

I don't think the XBOX is quite dead yet. I have several customers with them. They do have a very shitty power supply I will say that. We have about 35 to 40% demand for games for them tho. Just could be our area tho too. It does hurt Sony on pricing the PS2 with the HD tho.. Interesting take on your part tho.. Peace..

GO !!!
