I think mine would be around $650. I can't imagine paying 700 or over for a console unless I get super rich.

$399, when I bought my 360 last year. And I got a free game with it. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought it.

$300, I'd probably go higher for a certain console, but nothing with today's technology.

I wouldn't go any more than 600+tax. If the PS3 would have been any more expencive I probably wouldn't have gotten it.

$300 CAD.

No gaming console should cost more than that. Too bad there is no such thing anymore.

$399. Even then, it would need an established library of games I want to play.

I am only interested in consoles higher than 250 and less than 600. 400 would be ideal, if there were a console at that price, it would probably be the best.

$399, well I haven't bought a games console of that price. But that is the maximum I would ever consider paying, remember only for a games console. If it is a home entertainment system then that might be different.

$300 for this gen, at least. I just don't think a games machine is worth more than that when I could use the money to buy games for the systems I already have.

i payed 600 for a ps3 LOL

i dont see why people have this stigma about paying 600 for a console

meanwhile tons of people pay 600 for a stupid IPHONE

the ps3 at 600 dollars is a much better bargain than the WII at 250

wii doesnt even play DVD's or have HD capabilities LOL

and xbox360 premium you had to buy an add on for HD-DVD and buy a new elite model for HDMI

overall ps3 is the much better bargain even though it costs the most

600 to watch movies is too much for me too...600 for games same... and both... still too much, though I can see why some people go for it... it's not bad for what your getting.

It just so happens next month I'll be taking a 25 dollar bi-weekly pay cut. So then, I'll be most interested in something around the 350 dollar range.

Yea since the prices of hi-def disc players are really high. Paying 300-500 just to watch HDDVD/Blu-ray (and then 30 dollars per disc) is way too much.

I draw the line at $1000. But it really depends on the system, I mean I wouldnt buy a Wii for $1000 but if the system is actually worth how much i'm paying for it than I would buy iy.

Gaming pc-no limit

Console-850 Canadian, why? I'm a gamer and I have that kind of cash, but of course it has to be worth it, like I wouldn't pay that much for a Wii, but maybe for a 360/PS3, (360 only if it was definitly not gonna get ring of death)

For me, I'd pay about $250-$350 Canadian for a console. Any more in my opinion, is a waste of money, when you could just wait a year or two for the price to lower.

Why are damage controlling thePS3, when it just a simple question "how much will you pay for 'a' system? Its like you need to keep reminding yourself that it was okay to pay 600 dollars.

Consoles (not PCs), I would not pay morethan 400 dollars or so, under a half a grand is quite the limit. I don't care whether I am getting an excellent deal, that price range is just crazy. If you go by that rule, does it stop if you're getting an excellent deal on 1.5 system. I say no.For PC that have more things and uses than just gaming and perhaps a bit media, thats a different story.

1,200 dollars I guess. Which is what the PS3 costs now, although the PS3 isn't worth that I can see myself buying a better console at that price. You americans are lucky...

Probably $500 for consoles is max for me. For a brand new gaming PC, then probably under $2000.

$499.99 Canadian.

BTW I got my 360 for $449.99 on a sale with games which is why I got it. But the highest I think I would pay for one is $499.99 Canadian.
