Comments on: Xbox 360 price cuts imminent?

Joystiq says Xbox 360 price cuts are a done deal--and posts a Radio Shack newspaper circular advertising the lower prices to prove it.

What can I do with a $200 360? Seriously, don't you need a hard drive for most things? At that price though, it is a Netflix streamer (a la Roku) with the ability to play videogames. Not half bad except for the need to buy a HDD anyway...

Well let's see $200 360 Arcade and $180 for the 120 GB hard drive so for $380 you can have the same thing as an Elite for $20 less than the new Elite price.

I would not buy an Xbox unless online gaming was free and the price drops a little more than the current price drop. With computers you get free online game play, plus more graphic power.

I agree. It's very tempting to go buy a 360, but after factoring in fees for Live it makes the PS3 look affordable.

If the Xbox 360 goes down just £30 in england then i'd defently buy it!

Are the Best Buy ones the 20gb or the new 60gb. The 20gb units where lowered a couple of weeks ago but the 60gb units currently sell for $349 in most places.
