Give it a few days to really sink in. Everyone was waiting for a PS3 drop because of how expensive it was, I doubt the same was felt for the 360 even if it is still pricey. I doubt people really know about the 360 price drop just yet.

The 360 is not doomed. the PS3 is when the price goes back up to 599$. People are just rusing for PS3's right now because they know the price wont last.

the Information is updated . Why can Xbots just accept that this price drop wont help the 360 . Its reputation is very bad , and people just wont buy it until M$ fix it.

Exactly how long did it take for the PS3 to get to that rank on Amazon after its price drop?

The sales fall after this amount of time because the majority who wanted one by now have got one (they just have to work on extending its product life cycle now and tbh I doubt the elite did much for them). Lets just see the PS3 sales after its slow down period. Plus give microsoft a little longer to extend its product life cycle (and I may I will give the PS3 the same respect to get started), plus plenty of morons are gonna just get the thing for halo 3 (Ive seen it lol). Maybe the PS3 will get a boost after the end of the year because of the exclusives on that catering for a different market to the 360.

Not long but the news was plastered all over the internet because it was announced at E3. I havent seen anythign about the Xbox prop on sites like cnn.com or MSNBC.com like I did for the PS3.

nice self ownage... the price drop doesnt start untill madden releases.. i.e. 6 more days. Who the hell would buy a system 6 days before a price drop? 360 sales will be 3x that of PS3 in august and september.

Evidently you didn't hear the news. The same source that correctly predicted this price drop including the price amounts of each SKU has also stated there is to be an additional drop in October when the 65 nm units are rolled out.

Considering most Amazon shoppers (AKA adults with credit cards) would just be getting home from work, or soon leaving work, is anyone surprised that the sales haven't changed that much?

Kind of hard for people to shop on Amazon in the middle of their shifts, after all.

Actually the extra heatsync has been coming with the newer systems for a few months now (there are pics all over the internet with people opening up their XBOX360s showing them). They are basically getting rid of the old 90nm chip 360s, but those weren't the problem with the system.

True, I do see PS3s 600 dollar sku going down to 500 excluding the motorstorm at the end of september. I could be wrong though.

if sony didn't drop their price 100 bucks, since the damn thing was so expensive, it makes the 360 price drop look cheap. if sony had no price drop and Microsoft would have done a $50 price drop, people would have gone nuts for it.

thats just a guess, but it makes sense to me.

On its first the PS3 was at #1.

Exactly how long did it take for the PS3 to get to that rank on Amazon after its price drop?
