I think the price will drop when the PS3 comes out. That's just a prediction though.

hahhahaha, it will never be 200mevery! 300 in 4 years
It will not drop when the ps3 is realsed.
300 for core and 400 pre.
250 for core in 3 years and 350 as well
Ps3 will be 500 or more

it's well publicized that microsoft loses about $122 for each 360 they produce. this is a bigger hit than they took for the last system. the cost will only drop for the consumer once the price of chips for the system goes down. where microsoft hopes to make money is in game development and sales.
but yeah. people were paying like $1000+ on ebay for them two days before they came out. two fucking days. you have to wait for them to ship it to you anyway. morons...
i'm not gonna lie though, they sweet. we're getting one for our 3 year.

I say first price drop will be me around april, may (or right before PS3 comes out), and to get under 200... um 3-4 years maybe/ a year before their new system comes out

those of you waiting on PS3, better start saving up now. The estimated MSRP is $700+ . And if that Bluray goes through like they say... you can expect even more. $90 - $100 for games. My brother works ar circuit city, and he talks to the sony reps all the time.
yeah fuck that.

under 200 new? consoles drop down to their $199 or $150 price point in the 5th year of its lifespan but seing how the Xbox 360 and PS3 are the moset expensive consoles to date, industry experts doubt that it will ever reach that price point within its lifespan

since it is called 360, the only available option for the next would be 720, not 540
there was never a 180
