this guy's got a point, i think you've seriously been living under a rock or something, i mean, did you not know that all those extra things, are, well, extras? they're optional, you DO NOT have to buy them, f you want to, you can, if you don't, you don't

No.

 

Xbox 360 = 400$
Sony PS3 = 600$

 

PS3 is more expensive, get over it.

mistervengeance

are you just mentally retarded?

everyone knows that.

we are just comparing what you actually get to what you payed for.

If a person buys a xbox 360 does he need a HD-DVD drive, wirless headset, xbox live gold, rechargeable battery pack, wireless adapter, and a 120 gb harddrive JUST to play games. when i got my 360 i got no extra assesories and can play games. The addons are what you call optional

Sadly,the TC doesn't realize this...

 

All he's saying is Xbox360 is more expensive IF you buy all the accessories that the PS3 offers out the box. No, Xbox360 is not expensive than the PS3 until the add-ons becomes a factor(keyword).

 

then the real argument is whether all those add-ons that the ps3 has in-box are necessary

hmmm... Another one of these... Well lets see here. Dont need the wireless adapter, dont need the rechargable battery, dont need the HD_dvd drive and you dont need XBL. So basically it comes down to $480 for the 360 and $600 for the PS3. YOU CANT INCLUDE OPTIONS IN PRICE COMPARING.

The wii = budget car, Beetle or a focus/ civic roghly 15 thousand

The 360= a family SUV, Escape, Santa fe, explorer roughly 28 grand

The PS3= A hummer, roughly 50 grand.

Now When you buy a car, you buy one with the features you feel neccesary, for an appropriate price. That is how it works. If you have less features, it cost less, and different sets of features have different values to each consumer, so they get a Car just right for them.

But, when you buy A car, does anyone run up to you and say " My Hummer is a better value!!!! If you took you car to the shop, had the engine replaced to a V8, changed the Put on  A chrome grill, and replaced the cab, It would cost you more than my hummer!!!" That  is what cows are doing with the PS3. If people want the features of a PS3, they would buy one. Different things cost different prices, and the world has always operated like that.

Do you ruin out o the super market and say how Styrofoam cups are better than plastic?

Now, when people buy a console, even casuals do reasarch first.They don't just run out to the store and grab it off the shelf. They sit and say," what do I want to do with my Game console?" Do I want motion sensing? Then I can buy a Wii or a PS3. Do I want bluray? No. Do I need high def Graphics? No, So I'll get a Wii." That is how a consumer thinks. If we want the features of the PS3, we would have bought it.

And the way you phrase it, you seem to think that while we were deciding, we didn't think about how much live costs, or how much an HD-DVD player is. You didn't find out about some secret Add-ons hidden on a microfilm in  central park. We all knew this, and we still decided to get a 360.

*Checks previous post*

No...I don't believe I ever said they were free...maybe you're seeing something I can't.

What I did say is that those features were optional and thus, no one is forced to buy them. I do not own the HD DVD drive, an Xbox 360 Elite (I know it's not out yet, but I have no intention of buying one) and I've only bought one year of Live so far.

So my total purchase amounts to a grand total of $550. Nice try though.

Sony has put this non sense into your mind, and you believe them?

 

 

You know what happened when Sony made same these #s and spreadsheets?

 THEY GOT INVOLVED IN A LAW SUIT, because their #s were MISLEADING, and made no sense at all, and had no thought what so ever. Don't make that same mistake.

Other than Resistance: Fall of Man the PS3 has no games that would warrant that price...Besides Gears is better anyway...and don't forget Halo 1, 2, and 3.

I love how these guys never add in the cost of HD cables to the price of the PS3.

The math is simple to me. I want to game in HD online.

360 $400 + XBL $50 = $450. --- $530 if you go elite

PS3 $600 + HDMI Cable $25 = $625 (I would also need a ethernet cable as I dont game wirelessly because I like the best connection possible)

So 360 is STILL cheaper and STILL had better online and STILL has way better games. Its sad people try and make this arguement.

 

Edit: Oh yeah add the price of a headset to the ps3 price lol
