err
1. it's not cheapper when added up (or used to until slim)... if I don't care about BR, it's worth 0$ to me. so what is left is the HD.... PS3 was 400€ when the premium was 250€... that's not close in price...
2. Maybe with the slim it becomes more expensive... but i'm not even sure that an arcade + 60G HD is more expensive than a PS3 (at least where I shop).
3. well 3 answers here. A) The arcade.... if your console fail you keep your HDD and just get an arcade so the cost is lower for a new console. B) I didn't get one, and there were new 360 versions introduced C) YLOD
4. No argument there... the only reason I justified it is because the 360 was so much cheaper than the PS3 that it paid for a few years of live... (I got a great bundle).
edit: oh you wanted reasons why they are used.... I said why they are wrong... I don't see any reasons why they could be used besides blind faith for 1 and 2... 3 and 4 sure...
