guys thanks again for all the advice. I am still kinda torn..:?. I just keep hearing how all the major game companies are moving development of games over to the 360, PS3 is losing lacks good exclusive games,etc. The way I look at it I could do one of 2 things here..

Xbox 360 Pro 60gb 299

Wireless Adapter $75

Live Membership $50/year

PS3 80gb $400, built in wireless and free online gaming

I wish I could just make up my mind..:(

Well guys I am looking to get into gaming.  When I was younger I played PS2 and N64.  I have played PS3 and I liked it a lot but I have never played Xbox 360.  I am looking to buy a system that would fit my needs/wants.  I want to get something that will last but I dont want to spend a fortune.  I know everyone has a different opinion about which one is best but I am curious as to what people think would be the best for me.  Here are the things I am interested in.

- Graphics

- Games

- Online Play

- System Reliability

- System Longevity (How long before the console will be obsolete/Next version comes out)

- I will be playing mainly sports games (Madden, NCAA, etc)  and first person shooters (Rainbow Six Vegas, COD, etc)

thanks for the help guys

I am buying my first console and I chose to get the Xbox 360. I am looking into getting the 60bg pro. The one thing I am worried about is getting a system that has the falcon chipset instead of a system with the Jasper chipset. I am not planning on buying another system anytime soon so I want to be sure that I am getting the best system I can afford. So my question is are there 60gb Jaspers floating around or are they going to be falcons? Also, is the difference in the two even worth waiting for? thanks
