As you might know, Sony recently confirmed a lower price for PlayStation 4 in Japan. However, it seems like we're going to get this deal in the West as well - at least if Microsoft is to be believed.
In an interview with IGN, Xbox head honcho Phil Spencer told the site the following:
"I fully expect they [PlayStation] will drop price. When I think about the playbook they've used in the past, we feel good about the plans we have in place going forward in the holiday. If history tells, then we'll see a price drop from them coming."
Microsoft has prepared for the autumn with plenty of big and exclusive games like Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, Forza Motorsport 6, Halo 5: Guardians and Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Spencer thinks more competition only is a good thing:
"It's great for gamers when price competition happens. We saw that last holiday, and we saw crazy sales numbers on all of the consoles."
