Seriously, i would prefer the 360 because it has a bigger library of game than the PS3. Plus, the 360 dropped like 50 bucks or so on the console. You'll be saving money and having fun. That is call hitting two birds with one stone, my friend. ;) 360, All the way!

Get a 360...period!! It has the best library of games, XBOX Live, the best controler and its $150-200 less than the PS3. Oh I know that the PS3 comes with BluRay and WiFi built in and when you factor in the 360 HD DVD addon, XBOXLiveand the WiFi adapter, the 360 is more expensive in the long run but if its about the games, then those things dont matter. The bottom line is that the 360 has the games and the PS3 doesnt!!! MS spent alot of money for 360 EXCLUSIVE downloadable content for GTA IV and Rockstar themselves have said that if you want to play the complete version of GTA IV, you need the 360 version!!

:lol:, sad, but true.

I'd say 360 for the games and Xbox Live. But, it's up to you, get both if you can. I'd much rather have a 360 though.

stuff everyones oppinion, choose the console that has the most games on it/being released on it that you want to play, because if you let other people decide (especially if theyre fanboys)what console your going to buy, you could well find yourself being disappointed in the future, at least if you make the decision yourself, you can at least say you made right decision at the time and will have played some games that you wanted to play, if you see what i mean.

Make out a list of the games that interest you on both systems. Whichever list has the most games, buy that system.

That all depends,if he gets a Xbox 360 there are alot of games, including rentals.

a ps3 equals poor games, and even more mediocre games for rentals.

Hahaha.....Good stuff.

Anyways... I say get a 360 because that's where the games are right now. I know you said you don't care which system it's better on but ask yourself this question, Is a PS3 worth $150 more than a 360 when you start seeing posts about the DLC for the 360 GTAIV that the PS3 didn't get? If GTAIV is a must own for you, then in my opinion the 360 is a must buy as well.

nevermind all these fanboys posts and listen to me pal
let me give you some REAL advice

do NOT buy a console for justONE game.
WHY? well...lets say you bought a PS3 just because of GTA IV and then eventually you hear about this other game that got your attention and learn that its exclusive to the 360! get my drift?

so do this: surf around gamespot (or other sites if you prefer)a little and take a look at all the reviews, previews and all info you can on games(and yet to be released games) on both consoles.

when you are done buy the consolethat hasthe mostgames (besides GTAIV) that you might be interested in.

hope I helped
good luck

In all seriousness, get a 360 now and the games you want for it. Honestly, it won't be worth getting a PS3 until mid-2008 if there won't be any delays for its good games.

I owned a PS3 for about two months. It sure did look nice in my entertainment center. Problem was I had to keep a soft cloth nearby to dust it twice a day. Oh and my BluRay movie collection outnumbered my PS3 game collection 10 to 2!!!

I plan to get a 360 eventually because it has more good games. The only disadvantages I see to it are needing to pay to play online and the possibility of it breaking. But it shouldn't break as long as you don't keep it in an enclosed area (a tight shelf or closet) and you don't play it for hours at a time.

Well if you really enjoyed a lot of the exclusive franchises on ps2 like final fantasy, MGS, Ratchet and Clank, God of war etc., Then a PS3 may be the best choice as most of those franchises futures installments will be availible exclusively on ps3.

If you're buying it for GTA 4, get a 360. It's cheaper and it has a better library. Don't get a PS3 unless there's some PS3 exclusive game that's worth paying the extra $150+ for.
