PC is cheaper than HD Console gaming, no matter when you buy the PC. Here:

PC:
Built Gaming PC = $700
GPU + Ram Upgrade = $200
Game every month (5yrs) = $3000
= $3900
(Also, many PC games are actually released at $40 and $30 price point)
(Also, PC games drop price much faster than Console games)

Xbox 360:
Xbox 360 = $350
Xbox Live (5yrs) = $250
Game every month (5yrs) = $3600
= $4200

PS3:
PS3 = $400
Game every month (5yrs) = $3600
= $4000

That's for a 5 years cycle. And I'm not even discounting the fact that PC games drop price much faster, or else it could've cost only $3000 for a '5 year PC gaming cycle'.

Let me fix this for ya :)

PC:
Built Gaming PC = $700
GPU + Ram Upgrade = $200
Game every month (5yrs) = $3000
= $3900
(Also, many PC games are actually released at $40 and $30 price point)
(Also, PC games drop price much faster than Console games)

Xbox 360:
Xbox 360 = $350
Xbox Live (5yrs) = $250
Game rented every month (5yrs) = $300
= $900

PS3:
PS3 = $400
Game rented every month (5yrs) = $300
= $700

:)

Lol, wait.

Okay shio, I know how you champion pc gaming like it's your religion, but this (bolded) doesn't say something?

 

Continuing our conversation: the xbox has a cheaper model (arcade; $280)

AND if you buy alot of games cheap (as most people do) the consoles still come out as a better deal, because the pc itself costs so much. (also nobody rents pc games anymore either, great point mafoo.)

Overall: Consoles are attractive as gaming machines because people would rather spend 400$ now,rather than 700$ now.  People don't notice over time either, so they could care less. (I didn't until you showed me.) And there is also the fact that people relate consoles to games more nowadays, than the pc.
