If I combine a microwave oven and a 360 into one package and keep the price at $300, the 360 will essentially be saving you $30-50 on a microwave. That's value. Unfortunately, not everyone gives a shit about having a microwave and a game console all in one, and that's what you don't seem to comprehend. Value only has value so long as it adds a feature the prospective buyer cares about. What you don't seem to understand is that the value of the 360 is in that final sentence you can't seem to wrap your head around, the games. Quality is subjective, but general appeal is not and appeal comes from sales.

What I'd like you to do is this. Do this exact same scenario with the Wii. Take games out of the equation (since it's all subjective) and just judge "value". You'll see even more value on the PS3's end, and yet none of that will propel it past the Wii outside of a possible initial spike over the next few weeks. Sometimes you have to understand that what people see appealing in a console cannot always be presented in a feature comparison chart. If you make all your purchases off of value charts then congrats. Most people don't.

Your argument is biased and flawed. It's asked to give just one correct answer. In the real world, doug's dad, people have choices.

You wanna play Madden with your friends? What's the cheapest way to play Madden 10 right now? All of your friends will be at your house this weekend. The cheapest way is the Arcade - and a copy of Madden. Have your friends bring their consoles and play. So, for $256 and change, you and your friends are playing Madden on full HD.

For a PS3 now, it's $356.

In statistics, they call your move 'cherry-picking.'

Precisely my point.
