darconi said: By the numbers above, even at the reduced $400 price, that means its still almost 2x the rate of inflation which is very significant. A lot of people really are losing perspective on videogame consoles because they've gotten used to the idea of $400 and $600 consoles. The only consoles that have been priced this high have been ones that failed miserably. They are not the mass market price and won't be for a long time until inflation finally catches up in another 10 years or so. The wii hit it right with the pricepoint. If you desperately want bleeding edge technology, thats what the computer market is for.
You fucking win... er, frickin win!
Thats the main thing I was getting at; how can people call $400 "cheap" "mainstream" ect. is because they have lost all sense of what a reasonable price is thanks to the excessive cost of the PS3 and 360.
@Leo-j; what 4 PS3 games did you buy at launch? RFOM was the only good, original launch title.
