Reminds me of how I bought a PS2 in 2003 and my cousin bought a Xbox and 2 years later his $250 he invested in all that hardware went poof! and he had to buy a new console, the chose a 360. 6 years later I'm still enjoying my investment.
He made the mistake of buying a 360, forked over $500 in hardware: chargers, battery packs and LIVE. I forked over $500 for my PS3, no extra hardware bought for it since. In 2010 when DVD is finally too little to develop games on, he'll have to fork over another $400-$500 on the new Xbox to keep on gaming. I won't. BD will be able to handle the growth in the size of games till 2012,2013,2014...or even longer. We both paid the same but I'll enjoy it longer. He plays Gears? I play Gears on the thing I'm currently typing on. He plays Mass Effect? So can I. He plays Viva Pinata? So can I! I play MGS4. He can't. He needs a second console. I play Uncharted. He can't! I play Resistance. He can't. I play LBP. He can't. I'll play Killzone. He won't. He needs a second console to play my favorite PS3 games. To play the majority of his favorite games, I don't.
