Shack PSA: Xbox 360 $50 Price Cut Made Official, Target Adds $25 Gift Card
The cut lowers the price of the 20GB Xbox 360, coupled with a wireless controller, to $299.99. The company is offering a $25 gift card on top of the cut for an in-store promotion.
There is no word yet on whether or not the sale is indicative of a forthcoming 60GB Xbox 360 console. Stay tuned for news out of Microsoft's E3 press conference, scheduled for 10:30 AM PST this coming Monday.

Down 50 bucks? Cool. With a $25 gift card, even better. Kinda makes the arcade pointless now though.
Hopefully it'll die off and developers will be able to do more with the hard drive soon.-

I don't know what's wrong with you idiots who ask for the Arcade unit to be removed completely. What needs to happen is that unit needs to get priced more aggressively, as in sub-200-dollars aggressively. The moment that this generation of games is under 200 dollars will be the moment that it begins to become mainstream, with all the goodness and gaming and proliferating products that entails. The Arcade, without a hard disk, is the one most easily within reach of that price-point. You could argue that the Wii could make it sooner, but I don't see Nintendo wanting to price it that low while it's selling the way it is. If the 360 reaches that price and sells like gangbusters (and it will, if it does) then Nintendo would have incentive for it, but not before.
