Playstation3 looking at a $100 pricedrop?

March 20th, 2007

Analysts have long been rumoring a price drop for the Playstation3 due to lack of sales and the hefty price at launch.  Now Goldman Sachs analyst Yuji Fujimori predicts that Sony will drop the price of the PS3 by $100 dollars this October.

I think dropping the 60GB model down to the $500 range will sell more consoles for sure, but just how many are we talking about.  Most of the diehard Playstation fans have already bought their consoles, so Sony needs to cater the middle class families that don’t have one yet.  Offer a decent bundle for a nice price, or atleast include a few controllers with it instead of one would work well.

What do you all think about a Playstation3 price drop?  Would you run out and buy a 60GB model for say $500?
