This is all you need to consider.

WiiU = $300 to $350.
XBone = $500 + $60(Live).
PS4 = $400 + $60(PS+).
PC = $700 to $2000 +$60(controller).

Any more is bullshit and unnecessary for comparison.

Games' price tag isn't bullshit imo. The 700-2000 PC price tag can be easily offset by the amount of games a person buys per year. Say ~10 games a year. ~50 games across 5 years. That's a total of 500 discount on games alone. Even with a 1000 dollar PC, which will get you a very decent Game-PC, that will still put you below the total costs of the PS4 with 5 years of PS+ and 50 games.

And like i have mentioned before that advantage is offset by all the free games you get with PS Plus and Live Gold.
