Let's see....
My PS3 cost me $600 (60 gig launch)
My TV cost me $2000 (50 inch 1080p Sony LCoS)
I don't even want to go into what my sound system cost, so we will just stop there...
MGS4 $60
My PC cost me 750 to upgrade (the only thing I kept from old was the case and DVD, so let's call it $825)
OS free, but could be had for $130 I think
My 30" dell 2560x1600 monitor cost $1400.
Crysis Warhead $30
So...
Cost to play MGS4: $2660
Cost to play Crysis Warhead : $2355
The big costs in all that is the high end displays... the PC display will last me until it breaks (15 years?).
The TV will not last that long, so the realized cost for each game is even more dramatic.
And to be completely honest, I would have all that stuff no matter if Warhead or MGS came out, so it's really 30 vs 60.
I can't wait for Warhead! I just finished Crysis.
