I see way too many flaws against the PS3 to take this seriously.

First, why are you REQUIRED to buy a PS3 game, what if you've just bought it for a Bluray player, since it's a good one at that.

A HDMI cable here in the UK is £10, maybe a little more, which is $16-ish, and why would it cost more for the cable than one for the 360?

How do you know the prices of the motion controllers and Natal?

You didn't factor in the prices of 4 years worth of batteries for the Wii/360, and only put it at $50 for XLB, when it's been out for 4 years equalling $200.

If you add all of the prices up, without removing any or making any up, you'll see the PS3 is actually far cheaper than a 360...

LOL, so natal is free? So you have to buy a 60 USD game for PS3 but not for 360? And why would an hdmi cable be more expensive for PS3? Whoever wrote that is an idiot.

Watch out, you can get banned for flaming members of the site!

I didn't flame the person who posted it here (nordlead).

$100 x 4 = $400 so no I don't think they did that.
