If you want to spend the kind of cash it takes to play today what will run easily on the Nextbox, be my guest.

This PC would cost around 600-650€ for max. settings. Take into account the loss the Nextbox will be sold at and you'll actually end up with comparable prices^^

What are you talking about? A HD7970, Core i7-2600k mainboard and memory already cost $700. Than you have to add a pc case and power-supply, Blu-Ray player, controller/mouse and keyboard etc. and you're at $900. And then you should probably also add a legal version of WIndows 7/8 to keep it fair so that's another $100.

All in all $900-$1000 and then you still have to build it yourself, and it will no way look as good as a console. And it doesn't matter if the Nextbox is sold at a loss, you as a customer will only pay $400 for it tops.


Are you kidding? If you don't type this from a console chances are pretty good that you already have a PC -> No need to buy a new tower, mouse, keyboard, blu-ray player (hint: DVD is still the standard) or OS (you can still use your license if you reinstall Windows). I'll give you the power supply though, this probably has to be rebought. Adds around 40€. 650-700€ total.
