I simply offer this up as a theory for discussion.  This is not meant to inflame either side.  Let's set the Wii aside for a moment and talk about the HD consoles.  The point I wish to make is that I believe that a significant portion of the sales difference between 360 and PS3 may not be due any differences in the game libraries, but due to people who only have a SDTV.  Let me explain.  Part of what may or may not justify the price of the PS3 is the inclusion of a Blu-ray player.  This is a great value......to someone who has a HDTV.  However, for someone who wants next-gen games and only has SDTV, the Blu-ray player is of no value except as a forward thinking purchase.  I propose that SDTV owners primarily choose the cheaper 360 because of this.  I believe that these SDTV owners make up a large portion of the sales difference between the consoles.  Your thoughts?
