Nice article. I've actually done some stuff once just to see how it was and I can definately stand behind some of the things said.

If you wanted to order four PS2s you would have to buy eight copies of Killzone and a half a pound of Celebrity Deathmatch. The same was true for Xbox. Things got even worse by the time the PSP hit. The MSRP for the PSP is $249.99. Your price? $280 plus $150 worth of those same PS2 games they couldnt sell to you earlier. Thats an extra $150 of crap PS2 software <i>per unit</i>.
