More price cut proof: full page Kmart ad for $299 Xbox 360
More fuel for the Xbox 360 price cut fire as Joystiq has gotten its greasy little hands on what appears to be a full-page version of the Kmart Xbox 360 price cut ad discovered yesterday. Again we see an Xbox 360 Pro console offered for the "new low price" of $299. One interesting new wrinkle, Joystiq's tipster says that the ad is for the week of July 13, not July 6. That actually makes pretty good sense, as July 13 is the week of E3, which would be a good time for Microsoft to make the announcement. So, if you still haven't taken the 360 plunge, we suggest you wait another couple of weeks because the price cut definitely looks like the real deal.

Trying to get my boy to get one for a while, this might be the nail in the coffin for him to get in on this, finally we can do some coop halo3 on legendary.

thats what I'm doing w PS3 ;)
Since I'm not a movie buff, I don't need blu-ray, and their lineup doesn't include a final fantasy yet.
So yeah, bring on the 250.00 PS3.
lol

I'd like a Blu-Ray player, so hopefully MS will announce at E3. Otherwise, bring on the $250 PS3 and I'll finally get one.

July 13 eh? And I thought MS was going to forget my birthday this year...

My only problem with this, I was hoping they would announce a 60GB model at $300

Nooooo! I've got $330 of in-store credit at GameStop, and I was planning on getting my 360 today. I don't really wanna wait but that sucks if it's gonna go down $50 in 2 weeks.

buy it now, then in two weeks, price match it. Every retailer nowadays have a "30-day price match guarantee"

I'm starting to see them throw out the Arcade, Make a 60 Gb system lower the cost on all these accessories and then M$ can break the market so Next gen xbox can own it.
