The new rumor, based on a K-Mart sales sheet, is stating we’re going to see an Xbox 360 Premium price drop this summer (July 6th, 2008). The new price is said to be USD $299, down USD $50 from the last price drop on the 360 hardware.
The sales sheet only shows the 20GB Premium product, but this is probably going to hit all units to keep pricing competitive. This wouldn’t be the first time a price drop has been slipped from a sales sheet for a current generation console and we’re sure Microsoft will deny it this time as well.
This brings the console closer to a Wii price tag, making it much more desirable by the average gamer; will Wii respond with a price drop? More than likely the answer would be “no” due to their inability to keep up with demand. The dry channels for Wii consoles makes the product highly desired but also impossible to promote and market further than saying “we have Wii in stock” because demand is just so high.
Sony will have to watch out, their PS3 product is catching up in terms of hype and demand but a drop in 360 price will yet again put them behind the 8-ball in terms of competitive pricing.
Will you consider a 360 for $299?

All of this and Listener Feedback.
Hi guys.
Thanks as always 🙂
I played a lot of Magic the Gathering because a new expansion was released. And since wrath of the Koch king classic was released for WoW I got back to it for a lot of hours 🙂 I already wrote that to episode 663 which I listened directly before this episode 🙂
First of all: enjoy your holiday in LA Jonah!
Death stranding? Chapeau! I was so damn excited for this game and I was so hard disappointed … can’t remember whenever a game disappointed me that much. I think I managed to play 10 hours to give it a try, but I don’t think I will ever return to it 🙂
GTA6 Leak: I think the only GTA I played was the first one together with a friend sitting together and he played it, I watched it 🙂
KOF: isn’t there a new Street Fighter coming? I don’t know anything about KoF per Samurai showdown … only Street Fighter 🙂
Sorry that I can’t say so much this time, but I don’t know what to say regarding games I don’t know 🙂
Please stay healthy and keep on gaming!
Greetings from Germany
Ralf
