This topic was not started as flame bait, but rather to figure out the total cost of ownership for systems which is interesting. It might also be interesting to add in the steambox and a gaming pc when more is known about the steambox.
With a lot of people discussing the price difference between consoles lately, I think the topic is both useful and not an argument that favours any specific console. One does not need to buy all options, a PS4 can be run offline with a single controller for instance.
I think that with all options included this gen of consoles will be a much smaller price gap with gaming PCs than previous gens. For example the alienware X51.
