i don't feel lika adding everying up, but its cost a lot.

PS3 + PSP + 20 PS3 games + 20 PSP games + 2° SIXAXIS + HDMI = 600 + 250 + 1200 + 1000 + 50 + 30 = 3030 € * 1,55 = 4670 USD since psp launch!

Damn ...

If you guys really want to convert from € to USD, you might as well look for the exchange rates of when you had those expenses, otherwise it's pretty meaningless (unless you just want to inflate the number :P). The € has been getting stronger and stronger, the exchange rate wasn't always as big as now. You should also probably eliminate VAT from the prices, since American prices don't include VAT.

5 Games - $260 (2 of them at discounted price $40)

Ouch. $2700 this generation. That's on the low side, too. I'm sure I have spent way more than that on games but since I'm trading them in constantly, buying them from Gamefly (about $20 less sometimes), and shopping for bargains, I have no way to properly add everything together. Since I've purchased well over 20 games this generation, I'm sure it's higher than that.
