You "explained" my poor logic with some concocted hypothetical scenario? That scenario isnt even accurate. You assume the consumer has no agency or intelligence in their purchase. They must have somehow wandered into Best Buy with 300$ to burn. And what the hell? So now the added-on costs of LIVE, wi-fi, and so on actually make the 360 MORE expensive than the PS3 (this is what you are saying, isn't it?). Why else would the Best Buy employee try to sell the customer the 360 over the PS3 in your scenario? So then it is even MORE impressive that the 360 is outselling the PS3 at all! Talk about shoddy logic.

No, the most likely explanation is that they walked into Best Buy and they knew which console they wanted before they got there. Afterall, who actually talks to what passes for the 'help' these days?



Tease.
