The Mole gives up the goods on Sony and Microsoft hardware plans this fall: price drops on both systems, with the 160GB PS3 model replacing the 80GB model before the PS3 Slim is released. Expect the Elite to replace the Pro models on the 360 side after Microsoft adjusts prices as well. New bundles are coming as well.

I think Sony will benefit most from price cuts. 360 has already been low enough to see the benefit & Wii's demand has made up for its price. So Sony will benefit the most % wise relative to current sales, while Nintendo could benefit most in actual numbers sold. Included Nintendo even though it's probably only PS3 and 360 getting cuts this year.
