The PS3 is underrated.

I guess that the question about PS3 being overpriced or not depends on how many of its functions you use.
If you play games, watch BR, etc.. then PS3 may be a fair deal, maybe even a good deal.
If you only want to play games I can see why some thinks it is overpriced.

 

I agree with you 100 percent. If you love online gaming, must have a Blu-Ray machine, and refuse to hook up a cable to your console in this day and age, then the PS3 is probably a fair value. 200 dollars for those things isn't necessarily a gouge, when you look at what M$ are charging.

However, I still wouldn't call it a bargin. I'd say, that assuming you want all of those features, it is "not overpriced." If you don't want any of them, it most certainly is overprice, imho.
