Then quit whining and GTFO
Things Americans care about
Price - 360 cost of entry is lower
Games - mostly what their friends are playing, see COD
Having fun with friends and having a good time - yeah, that $5 a month for Live isn't going to stop anyone, I spent more than that in a day at the arcade
Things fanboys think Americans care about
Graphics - nobody gives a shit, see COD and Wii.
"Value" - if all your friends play on the 360, playing on PSN for free and watching bluerays isn't going to get them to switch. Exception: if your friends are on PSN, you have no friends or you are not buying a PS3 to game on
Patriotism - if PS3 sold for $100 nobody would give a shit if it came from a dictatorship using starving children working in a sweatshop.
Obscure imports/exclusives from Japan - it's America, not otakuland
Reliability - MS replaces the RRODs 3 years out, and it's a nonissue at this point. Most laptops don't last 3 years either, electronics that cheap become mostly disposable. Simpler machines were bulletproof, my Atari 800/NES probably still works and I have seen Okidata dot matrix printers take tons of abuse and keep on trucking.
