No, sorry, fail. It's a console ffs! No console is worth more than $300 tops. I spent less than $600 to build a more powerful PC than the PS3 would be if it were a PC, and it can do more than play a few iffy games, and DVDs.
Beyond that, consoles historically, take a hit on the hardware price, which MOST console manufacturers expect to make up in software licensing.
Games: Those games don't interest me. The PS3 has no good games right now, and some games for it have already been cancelled, but they were not interesting to me either so it's a moot point. Bottom line no good RPGs, no GREAT other type of games at the present.
So, now we'll re-rate the PS3:
PS3 0/10 -2 additional points, "I saw a fanboi the other day..." "Terrible creatures, I avoid them whenever possible..."
Bonus round: re-rate of PSP
PSP 6/10 no pt change, but I'm thinking about getting one to emulate the PSX...
That makes no sense? That means you have the crappy 360. The Core is the only 360 that was 300$. 600$? Powerful PC? LOL. If you think with 600$ you have a powerful PC you have no idea what your talking about. You're being such a fanboy it's ridiculous. In your OPINION the PS3 has no good games. In MY Opinion the PS3 has MANY MANY great games. If you give it a 0/10 because you feel like being a Nintendo Fanboy your just pathetic.
QUOTEX360 - 9/10. This is now the established gaming console, too many AAA titles in the past 6 months to say anything else. MS's use of an easier SDK and API have allowed a relatively easy port of games from 360 to PC and back, creating more incentive for developers.
Wii - 8/10. New, many great games out and coming out, but the 360 has it beat
PS3 - 5/10. It is overpriced. Sony made it too expensive and they have to sell it at a loss to be competative, their fault. Harder to develop for, it's extra power isn't worth the time needed. It came out too late to beat the 360.
Contradiction? You said they sell it at a loss yet it is overpriced. Last time I checked overpriced means they sell it at a higher price than it should be to get a higher profit.

According to that Overpriced means it is higher priced than worth, The PS3 is sold at a loss thus it's not overpriced. It's not that hard to develop for it's the devs ( mostly EA ) who just makes shitty ports. It came out too late to beat the 360? So did the Wii yet it has sold more than one million more in less than HALF the time the 360 took to sell all those consoles. That argument fails.
There's a difference from Expensive and Overpriced. Last time I checked, they were completely different things.
