Sorry mate but bullshit appears to be pouring from your mouth. Could you please detail the number of price cuts the PS3 has taken and then those for the Xbox 360? I fear that you'll find them to be relatively extremely similar.
Of course, the highly paid marketing executives at Sony decide to release a product with their pricing plan clearly labelled: 'meh, see how it goes.' They don't plan price discriminatory sales plan.
both consoles pricing scheme is considered to be "creaming and skimming" its a stratergy where upon release they sell at a high price for those with alot of money who can afford it,they sell it to the cream if you like 1st,then they will saturate that and skim a little off for the next buyers and so on.its a frequently used marketing stratergy.i did business back in the day

Sale figures of 360 and PS3 this year are practically identical. There has literally only a few thousand more 360's sold. "Experts" predict that the gap will be slightly larger come end of the year, but that was said before the PS3 price-drop and 40GB version was released/announced.

On a serious note
I know more people over here (Spain) that have a PS3, I think with Britain wanting to be very much like America it's normal for the Xbox to out sell Sony over there. Sony will always have the Asia market in their pocket so I don't think they're too worried.
With Pro out this month its going to be a console buyer and I can see more people who still haven't gone next gen going for Pro on the PS3. Especially now with the price drop.

Sadly no. There was a brief explanation similar to mine on C4 teletext a few weeks back, but that page changes everyday, and there was some actual figures on gametrailers.com, but the search function on there is fucked so I've no way of finding it :/

Latino, sorry, but you're full of shit.
Most people in the UK hate America, so saying we want to be like them is a lie. The sales of the PS3 will stay strong because there are a hell of a lot of fan boys about.
Fuck im too cool for skool

They may hate them but many people in Britain are greatly influenced by things that are made in America.
I saw a thread on gametrailers that backs up this 10 to 1 claim! I hovered over it and saw the website which the guy used as a source, I think it was, www.lettucemakeupshitgamingfax.org/delaystation3isgehy. :wave:
