wow...another one of these threads involving people who fail to realize that the 360 costs $299-$399.  Will it ever end?  I have not even spent close to that amount of money on my 360, and that includes the games and controllers I have.

This thread fails.........AGAIN

We have read your post. We read it the 1 million times it was already posted here. This topic has been done to death. A 360 is $400 I don't need all that other crap.

it's obvious that when you put everything together (over the span of seven years) the total anout of money that you put into any console will amount to a ton of money.  But I'm not paying $600 up front.  I'm paying $1,000 over the course of 7 years.  That's much easier for me to deal with.  By the way, you come accross asa fanboy yoruself when you claim that the PS3 is a steal.  How much of a steal will it be after everything that you purchased for it over the next 7 years?

You weren't refering to the quality of games with your first post. You were talking about the cost of all of the neccessities for a console. its doesn't matter how good the games are. The point is that the cost of everything that you'll buy for a PS3 will add up to hell of a lot though the next 7 years. So how could the cost of a PS3 be such a great deal?  I'd reather spend $600 over a long period of time instead of having to pay for it all up front anyway.

And another one of those people who fail to realize there's more to it than the face price. 360 may be cheaper to get initially, but over the long run you WILL spend more money on the console+service and far more if you want any of the overpriced periphereals and upgrades. The price argument against either way is just stupid because you're going to spend about the same.

How much are you spending JUST to play games? Exactly. The 360 is $400, the PS3 is $500 (soon to be $600 if the rumors of the 20GB being discontinued are true). Period, end of story.

No, WRONG. Most people will not even be playing online multiplayer. Most XBL users are Silver members only. Why? Because fewer than 15% of gamers even try online multiplayer. Even fewer than that will renew their subscription, if they already have one. And even fewer than THAT play online multiplayer regularly. Single player games and face-to-face multiplayer BY FAR dominates gaming. People love online communities, but online multiplayer is nothing more than a bullet point to add to a features list, NOT a major revolution or an essential gameplay experience.

umm..... so much is incorrect with this thread i can't believe it. First: u dont need 3 20 gigs if u can buy the 120 Gb for 180 ( which is a ripoff i kno) I dont need wireless ( plus it sucks compared to ethernet where i live) What makes u think that some point in the next 7 years that ms wont make live free or sony charge for online...... HD-DVD addon is def not needed....i hate the high def dvd cuz its not much of a big difference as dvd was to vhs so basically im payin 480.......umm which i might as well get an elite and call it aday.... 480>600...

You complete noob you don't need any of that stuff to play games on the 360.... whereas you have extra stuff on the ps3 that you got to pay for that you don't need to play games. You're forced to pay $600 for a gaming machine that has stuff not necessary for gaming. On top of that you don't have games so the $600 machine is pointless. You have failed stop creating pointless threads.

What about For us people that don't want anything to do with HD-DVD? I don't like wirless. I like a good ol' cable cause my 360 is about 5 feet from my router. 300 gigs? I have had my 360 since launch and still have 13gigs of the what 14gigs available? I payed 80 so far for 2 years and 2 months. What about me? Or the poeple like me?

That is SO wrong. MS is good for allowing us to choose what we want I dont need wireless I dont want or need HD-DVD I only need 20gig , i have a computer for anything else. And id rather pay for a solid online experience, then get a half a**ed job for freezeus_101
Yes, they let you choose when you want something, but the second you do want it they way overcharge you for it!

This is true. Thank God that none of those accessories add anything to the experience. WiFi, maybe, but even that is not needed for many gamers. (That's the only feature IMO that should have been built into the 360, even if it was only 802.11b.)

You guys can argue back and forth all you want... which console is better. Anyway, I am playing my psp everywhere I go. It is great cause I have to do errands everyday, so I take my psp and play games while I wait. It is powerful for a portable system and the list of 2007 games looking great too. As for consoles, I would need to have the time to site down and play it. SInce I have errands I rarely have the time to sit down and play games so portable is great for me. I saw this temp guy at work who basicly bought his 360 and a small 12" lcd to work to play. And then he have to carry everything back home. That is a lot of carrying. Me, I just grab my psp and laptop and go. $180 well spent plus with an extended 2 year warranty.

wow what a load of crap. elite version only 480 and premium only 400. those are the prices u pay at the register. not 1200. no 400 or 480. the other stuff are extras(u dont need no hddvd attachment at all, and u dont need the wireless router for wifi. ethernet works better IMO. for a gaming console yeah ps3 is more expensive. and live is 50 a year. thats like what less than a dollar a day. seriousaly u dont pay that much up front like u pay for a PS3. where its either the 500 or 600 version. so this thread a giant load of crap. accept it the trust hurts.

This never dies, does it? The fact is, Microsoft gives you a CHOICE. And by using your choice, the 360 can be cheaper. Not everyone is able to play online, don't assume everyone has high speed internet, Hi-def tvs, or are even interested in online gaming or HD movies.

Yeah. I'm going for a very minimalist aproach with 360 and it's good to have the option to do that. I'm not even getting live because from what I could tell during my months trial PC online gaming is more appealing to me, this is just a personal preference and I'm not saying it's better for everyone. Anyway the system is a good option for someone who is interested in a decent priced console.

It's getting/has plenty of the type of games I buy consoles for with games like Lost Odyssey, Forza 2, DMC 4, DOA 4, Dead Rising, Virtua Fighter 5, Ace Combat 6, Resisdent Evil 5, Assassin's Creed, GTA 4, Blue Dragon, Infinate Undiscovery, Cry On, Eternal Sonata, Kameo, Burnout 5 and Banjo Kazooie. So I'm happy with spending $400 and only $400 on the hardware and services because I feel my PC does a better job at handling what the more expensive options offer.

360 = $399

Bought one extra controller = $37.99

Online service for one year = $50 (and it's a proven online community, not some half-assed Xbox Live ripoff/wannabe like Sony. Ever stop and think that's why it's free? 'Cause it's half-assed!

 

6 games (one of them $49.99) = $349

 

That's it. I don't need a freaking HD-DVD add on cause I don't care about HD-DVD right now. No dumb WiFi cause I have a computer. MS gave us the CHOICE of what we wanted. They didn't force it on us and put a ridiculous $600 price tag on it.

 

Have fun with your overpriced system that will come to well over a grand just after buying the system, some games, and whatever else garbage needed to make that grill run. Oh and don't forget the small fees you WILL be paying for each game in that "free" online service.

I think he forgot the PS3 body kit, PS3 faceplate, and PS3 emulator to be exactly like the PS3.

how bout this for expensive. A PS3 uses about $40 more electricity a year than the 360. So that pretty much makes up for XBL now doesnt it.

How did you come up with that number WTF??? So you are saying, if you play the ps3 and XBOX360 for 1 minute for the whole year, the ps3 would still cost $40 more in electricity... Either you made that number up or you are missing vital information such as "The average gamer spends 500 hours gaming per year and using that information we have calculated that the ps3, if left on for 500hours uses $40 more electricity than that of an XBOX360 left on for the same time" plain $40 in useless unless you give some sort of percentage or ratio to it, maybe also give a link proving that?

Your right in more ways then one!  You know why?  WHen you buy a PS3, there is only 1 game you need to buy to get anything of quality on it!  When you buy a 360, you have to buy a whole bunch of good games, and those games add up fast.  I'm really glad when I get a PS3, I won't be tempted by good games I might buy, so that my costs stay low!  Thank goodness for that making it so much cheaper!

And boy, how is he wrong!

 Just look at these numbers. THey are all FACTS! No fanboys in denial allowed!

 

PS3 = 600 dollars

 

now to upgrade the 360 to be able to be compared to the PS3...

Just hang on a sec, u will be SHOCKED!

 

360 core = 300

3x 20 gig HDD = 300 (I know, seems unfair, but facts are facts!!)

wireless = 80

online = 350 (YES 350!! why??? 360 lifespan = 7 years. So 7 x 50 = 350. I know truth hurts)

HD DVD addon = 200

 

summing this up = 1230 DOLLARS!!

Now, remember when sony said PS3 is a steal??? Now u know why

Uhhhhhh your point is ??? The Xbox 360 is $400 the PS3 is $600 thats what people sees when they go to the store and who would buy 3  20 gig hard drives you sound pretty lame already kid, all that other stuff is things that aren't necessary why are people still trying to justify the PS3's price it's more expensive thats the bottom line most people don't even really care about all that extra crap that you just mentioned and if somebody does have all that stuff then they play video games a little bit too much, and as far as the online goes $50 a year isn't anything thats pocket change for a lot of people I dont even have Live online I dont feel that it's necessary for me to play my games , and you are the only fanboy in denial especially for trying to justify the PS3's hefty price tag!!!

360 core = 300(get the premium for 400 that comes with the HDD or the elite version which comes with a bigger HDD than the ps3's HDD)

3x 20 gig HDD = 300 (I know, seems unfair, but facts are facts!!)(this is just stupid you can get the elite for cheaper than the ps3)

wireless = 80(not needed.  This is optional)

online = 350 (YES 350!! why??? 360 lifespan = 7 years. So 7 x 50 = 350. I know truth hurts)(thats funny cause silver accounts are free and no everyone plays online.  You only pay to play online.  This is dumb to add in cause its not hard for paying for live once a year)

HD DVD addon = 200(optional not required to play games)

 

summing this up = 1230 DOLLARS!!(wrong its 400 dollars or 480 which once again proves that its cheaper than the ps3.  Oh i also have a ps3 too and you can hardly find the 499 model anymore.  Just the 599 models are available in stores now.)

Now, remember when sony said PS3 is a steal??? Now u know why
