Now this news comes as only a rumor to be sure. I cannot stress how much so it is a rumor, because no one has sited a source. All of this is speculation based upon the current state of the world market and the price drops that Sony has made in the past. Nonetheless all of the gaming sites have blown up with this story.
It is rumored that this August at Gamescom in Cologne, Germany, Sony will be announcing a European price cut for it's PS3 console. The price cut is rumored to be dropping from £255 to a much more affordable £179.99.
This would correlate to a price drop of around $50 to $100 dollars on US markets, meaning there would be a significant drop from the current $299.

Sony reiterated that it ‘doesn’t comment on rumour or speculation’, when questioned about upcoming price activity.
So what are your opinions? Do you think a price drop is likely? Do you think a price drop is necessary to help Sony increase sales after the PSN hack? Would the lower price encourage any of you Xboxers to invest in a PS3 as a secondary system?

A price drop doesn't give people the ability to hack, what the hell are you saying?

No lol, I mean like ps3s are cheaper to buy, so someone with another ps3 can hack, but then I forgot they ship ps3s out with the latest firmware, ****ing noob ^ lol.

It might increase people buying ps3's then putting them on CFW or 3.41 not necessarily give them the ability to hack just letting them do it at a more affordable price.
