I think a lot of times the general public sees the price, and not the value of a console in the long terms, as a buying tool.
I own all 3 of the consoles and, imo, I think that the Xbox 360 should have wi-fi built in, just in case if someone wanted to use in the future. Microsoft charging an extra $80 (if it's on sale) to $100 extra for something that even the Wii comes with standard is a tad bit much. The main reason I bought a PS3 is because of the FREE online, even if it's not up to par with XBL, blu-ray disc player, built in wi-fi, and reliability.
All of the features that the PS3 has that the Xbox 360 doesn't gives reason for the value argument. However, for me this hold true, for the casual gamer it may not. It all depends on what that specific person wants and needs.
