According to the new report from WMS. Sony will "likely" cut the price of PS2 from $149 to $99 at or around the same time as the introduction of Xbox 360 in late November. It's thought unlikely that Microsoft will follow suit. Talk of the company's "support" for current generation systems won't stretch to it taking yet more losses on its expensive-to-produce debut machine. Sony has been far more efficient in its manufacturing costs.
WMS forecast for (European and U.S combined) hardware sell-through is 12.2 million for PS2, 5.1 million for Xbox and 2.7 million for GameCube. It says Xbox 360 will sell 2.5 million.
The company says total hardware sales for this year will hit 40 million up from 35 million last year.
