Why you wouldn`t buy PS3 for 299$ or 199$?

The PS3 was worth every penny I spent on it. At the time I bought a ps3 if I were to try to make one myself it would of cost me $800. Sony saved me about $300, I find that pretty generous that there willing to lose that kinda cash for me.

The census here does not represent the real world at all.
Both my friends who had a Wii have now sold theirs. the lucky bastards made about a $200 off of them. One bought a 360 while the other bought a ps3.

If you own a wii and you say it is all you need then that means your are pretty much a fan of Nintendo only games. That is the only thing the Wii has that no other console doesnt. The 360/ps3 have far more to offer.

Mark my words wii fanboys. I bet 80% of you will own another console.

We should make that a bet?

Does the PC count as "another console".

 

I've tried to like the PS3. Whenever I go to my friends house and play the only game he has, nba something, the only interesting demo was Ninja Gaiden Sigma. During Christmas my poor cousin got the PS3 even though he wanted the Wii (got him covered since he will be getting it from me at his communion), his father is all into the HD and BR. I'm always frustrated with the console controllers for shooters, never liked it and never will put in my time to learn it, so got bored as hell with their shooter games, same with racing games (only their motorstorm demo was fun). At the end, was going to give a try on Rachet since many of you said it was better than SMG in the platformer genre... and in comes the shooter elements -> pause and exit. 

I was deciding to buy the PS3 whenever the slim version came out, only because of the BR player. But I've been put off by that also, the decision made at the end, buy a HD capable media center PC. I can do multiple things at my choice of OS and multiple choice of input/output periferals. And when it becomes old, I'll just replace my desktop computer with this media center. Win/Win.

So price isn't a factor, only value.
