July 13 2008 - Microsoft today announced the long anticipated price drop for its popular 20GB Xbox 360 console in both United States and Canada to $299, a price cut of $50. This price cut of Xbox 360 premium also brings it closer to the price of Nintendo Wii.

Microsoft also announced an upgraded Xbox 360 with a 60GB hard drive which will go on sale in stores, starting early August. This 60GB Xbox 360 console will carry a price of $349 (U.S). This new model is similar to the 20GB model, albeit with a bigger 60GB hard drive. It also comes with HDMI connection.
