Well, it's been confirmed now by a few different ads on websites so now that the price drop has come, will you be buying one? I for one will be.

I'm waiting for the Premium price to drop below 300, and for the Falcon chips to be proven reliable.

I already have one. But if you're going to buy one, I would suggest waiting for the new chip. That will fix the reliability issue.

If you haven't gotten one yet, I'd wait for that new chip. I think that will fix their reliability issue and by then, there should be an even larger and more worthwhile game library. Plus the worthy titles that are out now will be even cheaper. You can't lose. That's my strategy with the Wii and PS3.

I already have a 360,but if I didn't have/want one at $399, I wouldn't want one at $349. It's not that drastic of a difference, to me.

I'm getting a PS3 first since it has the most games I want, and that's gonna be my primary console this gen but I want a 360 and Wii eventually. But yeah, I won't buy the 360 until they fix the hardware. By that time the price should be cool too.

it's still to unreliable, maybe if one day they make a statemant about it being fixed. I'm not fixing to buy a broken system no matter what Fanboys say , it's broken. they basically said, it's Broken and we'll fix it anytime it breaks within those 3 years. no thank you. Would you buy an Ipod if it had such a defect, i think not. Ignorance is Bliss for Lemmings(as long as it doesn't happen to me)

The difference in sales won't be drastic... It'll be enough to give the 360 a slight boost when H3 and GTA IV come out... However I think because of all the controversy surounding the 3 red lights, people will be reluctant to pick one up. Hell I know of a handfull myself who won't get one because of that reason alone.

Microsoft could lower is by 200 and I still wouldn't get one, until the reliability is below 5 % I will never buy one.

Yes exactly. Unless the 50 dollar price drop comes with the new CPU then I'm not buying one. Fyi I already have one but I'm trying to sell it to get an Elite with the 65nm chip.

I'm not certain if I will ever buy one, but if I do I think I'll get it off of Ebay. $50 price drop is a sign of good prices though.

I will get one when they start making consoles that arent defective. The 360 game library is just too good to miss. Hopefully they get it out soon. The cheaper the better.
