You're missing a point.It's more than 480

Because a console lifespan is much longer.

Each 6 month PC video game and technology move foward .A real gamer might need to upgrade 2-3 time in a 6 years span.That NOT considering we have to upgrade any part that might broke.

Console has the years pass . graphic become better has video game company try to find the best way possible to suck up the most they can out of the console spec.They don't try that hard for PC

For exemple Halo 2 .. Which require close to 3.0 GHZ could run well on a 4 years old X BOX.

For exemple Gears of War 2 .. Might release on the same console(360) in 4 years.But you won't be able to run GOW2 on the same system you used for GOW1.THus upgrading your PC.

Your 480 is completly false.If a real gamer want to keep up with the technology.Say 4-5 X more expensive during the lifespan of that console.

That why PC GAMING it's EXPENSIVE and not for EVERYONE.Especialy when a single video card can be more expensive than the most expensive console and be discontinued in 2-3 years.

Good day
