That is what happens with the average consumer. Obviously judging from the sales numbers it really doesnt matter though.

Do you really think the "average consumer" is even considering buying these yet? Heck no! We're still in the very early stages. Only average consumers that likely have a player are those with a PS3.

Only ones that are $5 more are the Combo's. And I think there are fewer and fewer of these being released now.
