It's like me saying, "I would only pay $200 for a PC rig that could run Crysis on all maximum settings and also has a 2TB HDD" |
No people are mostly being rational here. What is irrational is to expect the consumer to care what the actual production cost is. A product is judged based on what it actually does. If it costs a company more to make a device than the consumer is willing to pay then the company has made a bad choice. The consumer is always right, and almost always rational.
Personally it would have to be around $200 currently. I just can't find enough games I would want to play to justify any higher than that. Even still $200 would be a little rough since I have a 360 for the multi-plats that I like.
