The price cut will be effective August 1, 2007.
Microsoft is also adding five free HD DVD movies with the purchase of a XBox 360 HD DVD player between August 1 and September 30.
Toshiba has made the same "five free" offer with the purchase of a Toshiba HD DVD player.
With the price cut, the XBox 360 console and HD DVD player is now priced at roughly $580 combined.
