There is a difference between fear and common sense. The fear of an enemy bullet will stop an advancing squad or soldier, and curing (turning off) fear will allow them to advance. Common sense tells them not to just get up and run straight at the enemy. Although, I'm not too convinced it will be a good thing to do.
Then wouldn't all systems (depends on if you consider Wii Sports a full game) be bare bones? The 360 also comes with one controller and no games (both the core and HDD version), while the Wii comes with half of a remote (one third if you want a standard controller for the Virtual Console games) and one "game". Either way, I think a $100 cut in price will help out the system, whether people buy it as a console or a cheap Blu Ray player.
The current price of the 20 Gb PS3 is $499. So if this is a price cut, it would be down $100 to make the 60 Gb $499. While it still may be more than the 360, it's hardly what I would call a "bare bone" console.
Vanguard: Saga of Heroes seems to have an older crowd. It might be because it is a lot more difficult to grasp the concepts of crafting and the like. You might give it a shot.
While it may be off topic, are your claims on console sales alone, or the fact that Sony and Microsoft have lost money? If the latter, it may be in part to the fact that they deal in many other areas of electronics, not just video game consoles. Sources would be great.
According to http://www.overclockersclub.com/, the Heliodisplay will cost you a hefty $22,500, as right now all of the avaliable models are just prototypes.

My family has two Xbox 360's, both of which are functioning.
