i have had an xbox since June last year, so i have enjoyed tons of great games over the time i have brought it and there is no doubt in my mind that it was the right purchase for me.

With the price cuts from ps3 late last year and the massive price cuts for the 360 earlier this year, i am assuming there will be another major price cut for the ps3 sometime soon. i also think IF the xbox boat does start sinking it will take a good year and a bit for it to become clearly inferior to the ps3.

i also image there to be several more price cuts to both consoles before this happens. that means that even if the ps3 does win the "OMG CONSOOL WAR!!" it will probably be at the $250 price tag or even below in the far east. that means after a couple of months of saving up i and most gamers could probably buy a 40gig ps3 and whatever super cool must have ps3 games needed.

or i could just upgrade my PC.

I'm not trolling. I'm just saying even if xbox does fail and ps3 wins i don't think it will be too much of a loss for the gaming world. and im glad for the good 2-3 years the xbox will have given me.

(btw ive never had any hardware problems with my xbox)

Its almost mathmatically impossible for PS3 to win in North America Sales... which are most important number to consider when looking at games actually available to us in the states... By the time PS3 could possible catch up, the next gen xbox will already be revealed and thus obsolete. Halo 3 is the only game I really need for the next 2 years or so.. everything else is a bonus.

ps3 will get 2nd place at best.

And the truth is that the 360 did better than Xbox did and the PS3 did worse then the PS2 did.

Xbox 360 = a step forward from xbox

PS3 = a step backward from ps2.

No matter how this gen ends. Those 2 points are FACT.

Those are not FACTs.. your mistaking it with OPINIONs

PS3 is not a step backwards... all i know is PS3 has no AAAEs at the moment, but is it a bad system? No

The PS3, Wii, and 360 are all a step forward then their predcessors

define AAA cause what one site says there always another site can rate a game as AAA but some sites say rate different just because Gamespot don't give Ps3 AAA games doesn't don't mean its not AAA other sites got PS3 quite few AAA games

No, it is FACT.

It is Fact that PS3 will NOT reach PS2 sales numbers. The Wii might, but it is obvious that PS3 won't. That is a step behind.

It is fact that the 360 will sell more then the 24 million lifetime sales of the origional xbox.

Fact - Xbox 360 made progress, PS3 made the opposite of progress. fail.

No dude if you actually think that the PS3 is doing better then the PS2 you must be completely retarded.

Youre looking at it wrong

Of course PS3 doesnt out sell PS2 but hardware wise its a step forward

I mean hell PS2 did better than 360.. would you say PS2 is a step forward for 360 and PS3 and that everyone should buy a PS2 instead?

I think my defense still stands

but on the offset that it does win, most 360 owners could probably start saving for the next gen consoles or buy a ps3 when it is dirt cheap. so EVEN IF xbox does lose, 360 owners still win

STOP talking lol NA sales isn't a big deal, also the gap between NA is much more smaller and becoming smaller, but the GAP between japan is HUGE!!!! and becoming bigger ever week that passes. also Europe gap is becoming bigger lol also it's not impossible to beat NA sales since ps3 has a 10 year life span! just cause next xbox is released doesn't mean this gen is over. i mean last gen isn't over PS2 is still selling PS2 is still beating 360 sales each month! worldwide! war isn't over until all the console of that generation stop production!

With the price cuts from ps3 late last year and the massive price cuts for the 360 earlier this year, i am assuming there will be another major price cut for the ps3 sometime soon. i also think IF the xbox boat does start sinking it will take a good year and a bit for it to become clearly inferior to the ps3.

i also image there to be several more price cuts to both consoles before this happens. that means that even if the ps3 does win the "OMG CONSOOL WAR!!" it will probably be at the $250 price tag or even below in the far east. that means after a couple of months of saving up i and most gamers could probably buy a 40gig ps3 and whatever super cool must have ps3 games needed.

or i could just upgrade my PC.

I'm not trolling. I'm just saying even if xbox does fail and ps3 wins i don't think it will be too much of a loss for the gaming world. and im glad for the good 2-3 years the xbox will have given me.

The Xbox 360 is already a success from the original Xbox. Even if they don't finish first they have a better hold of the gaming market, and are making money this time around.

The biggest problem with 360 losing is that it is a slap in the face to Bungie and all of their hard work to help humanity. Granted Halo: CE came out on xbox but Bungie's release of it for download christened the 360 and continued their indulgence of Microsoft as the revealer of the message they gave us in Halo: Combat Evolved.
