The closest SOE could come to re-jiggering buyer expectation is to sell a package bundled with a kb+m. Not saying it isn't doable. I'm still using a $15 sharkboard I picked up to test EQ:OA back on the PS2 and you can get a decent mouse on the cheap as well. Not a proper gaming rig, granted, but they could probably bundle something for an additional $20-30.

If you want ongoing development, release to a console is bad news. Let face it things changes over 8 years. PC hardware improves and a console would potentially be a limiting factor for decisions on game development that a PC could deal with easier.

OK so yeah, I'm a little bitter because I have a GTX260. So close, and yet so far.
You can get a 460 for $120. Not pocket change but a far cry from "hundreds of bucks".
