It depends on your habits as a gamer. Someone can now buy a Gamecube for $30 and pick up 10 great games for another$50-70 to last them most of the year. Same thing with PS2 and Xbox. We on here choose to purchase games day one and pay out our asses these high costs. Even now if you were to buy a 360 and only purchase games within the launch year you can get 2-3 games for the price of one game at $60.
I have about $1200 worth of hardware and software fo this gen but not all of it was purchased by myself.
