The latest rumour in the soon to be released issue of EGM (August 08) speculates that Microsoft is set to announce a huge price cut on Xbox 360 SKU's this fall.

Could this be the final nail on the PS3's coffin when Sony just announced that the Playstation 3 has so far cause SONY to lose $3 billion. Can Sony afford another price cut just to play catch up with Microsoft. That will sure put another big hole in Sony's bank account.

We're discussing about this $3 bil lost in the Playstation forum. The general consensus is that Sony doesnt mind at all since, they've already won the format war. And frankly, xbox360 will have to use the blueray sooner or later. DVDs are so... 90's

Who cares whether 360 gets a price cut or not, it is still using DVD anyway that has a maximum capacity of only 8GB T_T

Damn... now I'm confused... should I buy 360 or PS3...

WAIT! I got both! So it doesn't matter... I can afford so I don't spam anti PS3 thread around. AND I'm too smart to do that.

Yup, whenever anyone ask me about the 360, i'd ask them, TAK TAKUT 3RROD ker?

ROD ROD ROD, READ or DIE and ROT ROT ROT.

Unless they are thinking to follow Sony's footsteps and introduce a slim 360.(which i'm sure they won't)


Manatau Xbox tgh sambil2 nie dalam plan nak buat Xbox 720 ke. Nanti tu plak dua kali ganda jadinya = 6ROD.

LOL.

Analyzing the situation.... EGM just wants to fire up Microsoft and pressure them to cut their prices so that they have MS as winner.

I say, Nasik ayam rocks!

When Microsoft cut price...PS3 fanboys jealous and can only curse the 360 with 3ROD. Who cares!!!

Oh..btw I just bought 20 games and it cost me only RM140. Imagine how much that cost if its RM200 a piece.....RM4000 = 4 3ROD. But my360 still going strong and i'm laughing all the way to the bank.

When jasper comes out. there will be no 3rod. so the ps3 fanboys have nothing to pin the 360 with. and with the price cut summore. So you can understand their concern. rofl. But in the end, fanboys always lose out the most. Get the best of both man!! if you can afford ps3 and its games then u can definitely afford an 360.
