360. Looks better, more games due to earlier release, and most important of all, HALO!

The 360 is the best of the next generation console's. The PS3 has almost nothing unique. Mainly because Sony has copied most of Microsoft's and Nintendo's ideas. Example, 360, the guide button on the control. Example, Wii, motion sensor. I have a 360 and plan on getting both the PS3 and Wii just to have them. The 360 is just amazing to have(I have one and its plugged into my HDTV), I'd say save up for it, and then Halo 3. Just because the PS3 didn't excite me at E3. Thats just my opinion though.

mabe but i'v noticed that PS3 can show just about any game at 1080p...the 360 highest res is 1080i (not as sharp). PS3 comes standard with 20-60GB HDD. 360 conrtolers can activate the consoule remotly and have a good library already. PS3's library spans the PS1/2 and of cours PS3 games. The motion tech in the controlers (from what I read) wasn't [/u]copied [/u] they only used it to an extent. But yes Sony is learning from both companies what a good controler should be. My bigges turnon by PS3 is MGS4 which kojima showed in realtime by moveing the camra wile Snake did his stuff and the lighting had some nice shine on his armor. but most inportantly people in the game look like real ppl. I'v sean and played the 360 a few times but didn't see models that looked that lifelike sofar.

Lets think...

Should I get Gears of War and Halo 3?

Or... Final Fantasy XgIaIyI

I believe the Xbox has much better games. So far, my Xbox 360 is awesome, GRAW is amazing.

its like a large force of win going through fusion, thus creating a chain reaction of a huge asplosion of win destroying any fail within its awesomeness.

Do you want Halo 3? Get a 360.

Depends. Do you want to take out a loan to get a PS3? Do you want Sony's horrible customer support?

dude, you pulled a jesus!

If you're patient, wait to see more of Sony's games before deciding. The games are all that matter when it comes to consoles...

So it's a PC or Mac? Why all the features, really? I doubt half of the buyers will even use 1/4 of the PS3's features.

mabe but i'v noticed that PS3 can show just about any game at 1080p.

It only shows 1080p with the $600 version through HDMI. That's all good and fine, except HDMI only displays at a maximum of 30fps.

I believe each console has it's ups and downs.

I'd say just get an Xbox 360. It will have a bigger game collection then the PS3 and it's cheaper. Then you can get the PS3 after a few price drops.

Plus, in order to see that 1080p, you need a $3000 tv.

Get a PS3 if you are a serious gamer, wealthy, and would use all of it's features.

Not when games utilize true slow motion.
