Okay people,

I have a choice to make: 360 or PS3?

I'm tempted to give in and buy a PS3 because it's more expensive, but I know that isn't a good reason.

So...

sell me on the 360!

the 360 may not come with built in wi-fi, built in bluetooth adapter, next gen movie format player, 40 more gb, free internet, or internet browser, but it's certainly 200 dollars cheaper and theres better games like gears of war and oblivion after all.

I say buy for the future, and in the future MGS4, L.A.I.R. Heavenly Sword, and Ninja Gaiden are near!!!

I say PS3 is the way to go if your looking for a long term commitment to just one system, if your looking to hop right into a pool of solid games and gears of war! then go 360

 So you need to be sold on it eh? Well for me, I have always felt that Microsoft has done a much better job of listening to their customers and giving them more of what they want. That speaks true with the 360 in the games and the extras that are available. Also, Xbox Live is the best online service EVER! I have talked to many a PC gamer that has bought a 360 just because they loved the online service and felt that it was unmatched. So past that, you have to realize that the 360 is just as powerful as the PS3, it's just built differently. You also have a much better library of games right now for the 360 and most of the good games for PS3 are coming out on 360 (Devil May Cry 4, Assasains Creed, etc (Final Fantasy may be on the way too)). Oh, did I mention Gears of War? That game alone is reason enough to buy a 360 and if you like RPG's Oblivion is as good as it gets. Overall you pay less for a system that is just as good or better than the PS3.

PS3 = No Games
360 = Games

My PS3 is solely a BluRay player these days...

Its not better. PS3 has more potential power. The only thing 360 has is its cheaper.

 But, as of right now, the 360 has more exclusives, and overall better games at the moment. So thats what im sticking with.

 Of course, in the future, dev's will learn how to code properly for PS3, and more exclusives will come out for it, so 360 will have quite the opponent on its hands. 

But if you are looking for entertainent right now, 360 is the best bet hands down.

Everything technical that I've read has indicated that the processing advantage of the PS3 is negligible at best. However, like it or not Sony has a huge following of gamers and developers, and they will have to screw up pretty royally to change that. If you're looking to play games now, get a 360. If you're looking to buy games 2 years from now, get a PS3.

Yeah... The problem with the PS3 is that despite its 'power' it bottlenecks in too many places... needs a redesign in order to fufill its potential...
