Early Sept price reduction on X360 hardware:

* Arcade (no hard drive) to $199
* Pro (60GB) to $299
* Elite (120GB) to $399

We should also expect hardware and game bundles for all hardware versions coming in the fourth quarter, just in time for the holidays.

In addition, the mole revealed that the upcoming release of Forza 2 Platinum Hits will include all the DLC tracks that were made for the title, which is a good way to add value to the game.

The last time the mole talked to me, before he became a super-villain, he told me the 60GB model of the hardware was coming, and he was right on the money with that one. Those prices should be considered rumors, but I'd be very surprised if this wasn't accurate information. Very sexy pricing.

Arcade - Right price
Pro - Needs to be lower
Elite - That spread is too wide for just 60GB more of HDD space, black case, and an HDMI cable

they'll laugh you off the stage, at those price levels they'll lose money in the qtr. seeing they're going for profit and failed in the recent qtr at current price point I'm skeptic at this rumor.

Am I the only one that thinks the prices are too low? I mean when a console cost the same amount has a hand held, something is wrong.
