We saw retailers giving discounts earlier today but now we’re hearing more and more anecdotal evidence that a price cut is going to be announced at Sony’s conference this evening in Germany.
The figure looks like it will be around €239 for the 320GB model which we assume will drop to £199 in the UK. That could bring the 160GB model down to under €200 and possibly as low as £150, if retailers choose to squeeze it as much as possible.
With stacks of consoles being marked down already, the price cut announcement, if it comes, is likely to be one of those “effective immediately” things. We’ll keep you informed of anything official as we hear it.
