i take it you never made it that far then?

because even trying to compare something like purchasing a vehicle (something that can be pretty expensive and essential to the normal functioning of ones life) and buying some video game controllers makes me question your ability to think clearly.   as well as the fact that it doesnt make sense since the amount of money spent on the controllers would be the same. 

Im not talking about spreading out payments on a PS3. Im saying if I reeeeally wanted move i could buy a controller and a game right now, since i have a PSEye. So i can play with i........t then when socom comes out, grab the nunchuck and another move and play that and use both moves, etc. Im spending the same money in the end but its easier on my bank account and doable for me.

But is not going to work that way. The audience that Sony is trying to get is not goona say "Ok so... I spend $300 this month, and next month i'll spend another $150" while they can just look at the wii and say "well, if I'm spendig $300 this month in videogames, I could be getting 3 games and an extra controller to play with someone"

Remember, sony is aiming for the people that wants quick games, to play with friends and family... Not the people that wants uncharted or killzone

No, my point is if i want something thats "expensive" i dont have to pay for it all at one time. Since the move users th enunchuck in games like socom or Killzone 3 i can buy things over time and alleviate the burden of total cost, im not saying im saving money im saying it becomes affordable than one lump sum.

See, that's your mistake. Sony is trying to get people which don't even have a ps3

IYO - to the wider audience, those Kinect games are going to appeal more than SOCOM 4.

Another thing, they NEVER said kinect would be in Alan Wake or Halo Reach, you completely made that up.

he probably bought his from one of those rent-to-own places where they charged him 200 dollars a month for 2 years.  because paying less one month means its worth paying more!

I disagree. Theyre aiming at current users branching out but also i think their idea is that families where the dad wants BD, the kid wants God of War and little sissy and mom are left in the dark, the family can justify a PS3 for EVERYONE. Im not saying its a good idea, but i dont think Sony is trying to be a Wii, i think its trying to make a case for everyone in the home.

Regardless its irrelavent, the discussion was about how uber expensive and unaffordable $180 is, and my point still remains, if that is a barrier to someone who wants this product, they can easily buy it in stages and still enjoy it thoroughly base don content functionality and justify spending the final sum in increments rather than one lump sum.

keep your backahaned personal insults out of it, please. Doesnt help your case or move the debate along.

It's pretty clear that this was a troll thread from the start.  Move doesn't cost 180 dollars.  It costs 50 (80 if you don't own the camera yet).  There's an add on that costs 30 that you can use on some games, or you can just use the controller you already own.  There's one very rare instance that requires you to own two move controllers (no different than the very rare instances where you need two wii controllers).   Who is going to go out and buy the camera, two move's, and a subcontroller day one?  Unless someone wants the fighting game, they'll probably never buy two moves.
