xbox 360 or PS3

I will now answer the long asked question about which is better, xbox 360 or PS3. The PS3 has blu-ray which is the exact same thing as HD DVD (what xbox 360 has) but just can store more on the disks. Even games like GTA4 are only around 8 GB which can be still be stored on a HD DVD, so why blu-ray? The only thing it does, is for games like blue dragon which is 3 disk on xbox 360 would be 1 disk on PS3. WOW, what a great feature :lol:. The xbox and PS3 have the same graphics and sound but the PS3 has long and annoying loading times and installation sequences due to the LAPTOP hard drive featured in the PS3. Apparentley they have just come out with solid state drives (SSD) that can decrease load times, by literally a few seconds, on the other side it increases the installation sequence by minutes, for the low low price of 400-1000$! Pretty lame. just to give you an idea of just how much installation sequences and load times change here are some examples taken straight from gamespot: Devil May Cry 4 takes 21.2 minutes installation on normal drive, and 32.5 on SSD (the expansion). Load times to get to the game menu are 40 seconds on normal drive and 36 on solid state drive. Save game load times are remaining 6 on both. GTA 4 installation sequence is 8.1 minutes normal and 9.83 minutes on SSD. To get to game menu it takes 97 seconds normal and 93 seconds on SSD. Save game load times are 15 seconds normal and 12 seconds on SSD. does anyone else realize just how lame lame the PS3 and that expensive upgrade are. That major flaw could possibly be overlooked if the PS3 had good game selection, but unfortunately it does not. Frankly i am very surprised that the PS3 has not crashed and burned because it is a total waste of money!
