@Dodece,
it's late, and I am tired, but I will try my best to explain it to you.

All the sales figures I found on this little known sight called VGChartz. They have these cool things called "Charts" that allow you to track sales and stuff. It's neat, you should try it sometime.

The Sony costs have come from sources, but mostly Sony. The PS3 cost $800 at launch to make, now it cost $400

The $50 cost delta minus the Arcade I figured out on my own. I would like to thank my 2nd grade teacher for that one.

The only thing up there that's suggestive, is the lineup. You say after 6 months the PS3 has lost it's "lineup" big hitters. Sorry, but most people will find GT, FFXIII, LBP, Resistance 2, and Haze kind of fun.

As for the movie thing. You are kind of talking out of both sides of your mouth. At one point you say no one cares about it, and in another you say the is just as capable because you can DL them. Not sure about you, but I will be getting my 10 Gig 1900x1080 resolution videos free from Netflix. To think that HD losing and Blu-Ray winning has no impact on sales of PS3 vs 360 is nothing more then fanboy blindness. I didn't even mention that you clam the Arcade as "in the picture", and still say "the 360 can DL movies". You must mean only some of them can ;)

I didn't even spell out the biggest argument point, and that's sales trends. Last week, the PS3 outsold the 360 by just under 10%. This week it's just over 10%. if that number continues to rise, it's huge trouble for MS. I got those from VGChartz too if you are interested.

So go live in your fantasy world, enjoy looking up at that picture of Bill Gates you have pined to your ceiling, and I will continue to enjoy my PS3 and 360. (Wile I own both, I tend to turn my 360 on less and less these days, although Mass Effect was great.)

Edit: I mean free from NetFlix because it doesn't cost anymore then DVD's.
