PS3 has nice 09 exclusives, but at $400 its still hard to justify a purchase.

Why spend $400 + 60 for a PS3 and KZ2 when you can spend $200 + 40/60 for a 360 Arcade and a copy of Halo 3/Gears 2.

Because a....

400+ 60(Killzone 2) + 60(LittleBigPlanet) + Free Online=520

While...

200+60(Gears of War 2) + 40(Halo 3) + 20-30(Controller batteries) + 50 a year(Live) =370++++(Depending on how long you keep it.)

Lets say you keep them equally for 3 years....

PS3 gaming= 520 still

360 gaming= 520+

Plus Killzone is twice the game Gears 2/Halo 3 is lol (JK JK! Please don't FLAME me!)

 

those are accessories. Im talking retail prices of the console and the console alone. Last I checked PS3 has accessories too that 360 has out of the box that PS3 doesnt have (headset, component cables, pack-in games, backwards compatibility).

My theory works.

An Arcade and Gears 2 is better gaming value then A PS3 and Killzone 2 (for the average consumer, not the hardcore elite like us who post on gaming forums :p).
