how exactly does buying things at different times "solve" anything ?

Do you justify paying 30,000 for a car or make payments monthly, it justifies spending more money when spread over long term...what was it you said, forgive me if i misquote you, 1st grade stuff?

At the end, you pay the same amount....

Exactly, thats my point, actually you pay more with interes on the cart, but my point is it hurts a lot more spending 30,000 or $180 at one time than it does spending $400 a month or two months paying $90
If i want a move but say gosh $180 is a lot i can buy it in pieces, if i want a prius i can say gosh thats alot of money but i can chip away at it.
Im not saying its a benefit im simply saying with this structure its not an "omg dealbreaker" people are attempting to make it be.,

But is not going to work that way. The audience that Sony is trying to get is not goona say "Ok so... I spend $300 this month, and next month i'll spend another $150" while they can just look at the wii and say "well, if I'm spendig $300 this month in videogames, I could be getting 3 games and an extra controller to play with someone"
Remember, sony is aiming for the people that wants quick games, to play with friends and family... Not the people that wants uncharted or killzone

I disagree. Theyre aiming at current users branching out but also i think their idea is that families where the dad wants BD, the kid wants God of War and little sissy and mom are left in the dark, the family can justify a PS3 for EVERYONE. Im not saying its a good idea, but i dont think Sony is trying to be a Wii, i think its trying to make a case for everyone in the home.
Regardless its irrelavent, the discussion was about how uber expensive and unaffordable $180 is, and my point still remains, if that is a barrier to someone who wants this product, they can easily buy it in stages and still enjoy it thoroughly base don content functionality and justify spending the final sum in increments rather than one lump sum.
