I don't see how the price comparison Sony did was BS.

Sony used to put out a new chart like this every 6 months to try and make the $600 PS3 look like it wasn't extremely expensive. If you were on these forums from when they first started you would have been around for those threads too. Sony one time insisted that you had to buy 4 controllers to play (I couldn't find that one). You also had to buy a WiFi adapter and a wireless controller. If you look at the chart I actually linked they bought the worst console possible, then upgraded it which is more expensive. They could have just bought the Pro and been done with it. Think of this thread as a throwback to those threads which were hilarious because they were serious.


Did you look at the Sony comparison? They added a 20 gig HD and a HD DVD to rival blu-ray. The pro would have only offset the hard drive. Therefore based on their charts the PS3 would have been a more affordable gaming and HD movie device.
