Price War

I recently bought a PlayStation 3 (I promise I will stop going on about it) because they slashed...that seems a bit dramatic, they took away fifty pounds from the asking price, bringing it down to £245. This sent me into a bargain frenzy and I went out to buy one, how many did this remains to be seen, official word will come when the CEO of Sony is seen dancing naked on a roof top.

Well in a case of tit-for-tat retaliation it seems that Microsoft are trying to start a pricing war. Rumours are circulating that the Xbox is to drop around $50 from it's price, for us English folk that is around £25. I don't see how this will attract anymore people to the Xbox however, with the three versions ranging in price from £130 to £220, the only reason the PlayStation 3 was hit with reservation was because of its ridicilous high price, a price drop in 360 will only bring about a shrug surely?

Nintendo must be sitting smugly right now, looking more pleased with itself than a dog sniffing it's own gasses.
