Again, someone build a PC with $400 that outperforms the PS3, that's the only fair comparison, I know it can be done but i'm curious of the combinations, i won't do it because my gaming rig cost wayyyyy more (too much power there)...

That's not a fair comparison. A $400 PC needs to be built. If it's built that means you are buying the parts at a premium. They aren't being sold to you at a loss. The PS3 is sold at a loss until we are told otherwise.

 

 

The sad thing is the PS3 and XBox 360 perform in a similar range to my 3 year old PC (Athlon X2 3800+ and Geforce 7800GT) and Squilliam's Chumpzilla ( http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=47030 ) was a $327 PC which outperforms my PC by a wide enough margin to easily claim that it should outperform both the PS3 and XBox 360. Certainly, everything in that PC was on sale, but I think that is a good balance for the PS3 being sold at a loss.
