Microsoft’s Xbox 360 is old enough to stand on its own feet, feed itself, and at this point even have a crush on the young girl next door. So don’t you think it’s time for a price drop? Even though Microsoft hasn’t announced it to the public yet, plans to lower the Xbox 360 base price is expected, some analysts say.
The 20 GB Xbox 360 formerly known as "Pro" looks like its price will be going down by fifty bucks, from $349 to $299 according to a Best Buy employee who used his phone to give us this blurry picture. The ad, photographed off-screen from the Best Buy computer system, is said to run the week of July 13th. That matches up with previous price drop rumors from Kmart and an unnamed "major retailer." Could this just be a one week promotion or is there a whole other SKU involved, in which case the price drop would remain constant?
We’ll all find out once E3 week is upon us.
