360 and PS3 at launch, because I refuse to miss out on any game that's fantastic. In the last generation, all platforms had a number of them. Some more than 10 but none less than 5. Holding out to buy a Wii until something tickles my fancy.
You guys realize that just because a game comes out 9 months later, it doesn't mean that development on the two platforms started at the same time resulting in one having 9 months longer development time right? Reading this forum you'd get the feeling many don't.
I think I am gonna fire up my superior version of Splinter Cell on my 360, and get this warm cozy feeling that PS3 owners can't see such fine detail as I.
Actually, any port I have, I have this feeling.....8)

Of course you get a warm feeling from your 360. Sit close enough, you might catch a tan.
That's because of all the HOT games the 360 has. Wish you could say that for your console of choice.8)
Sorry, owner of both, like any serious gamer. Just don't like smug guys like you.

Graphically, the game looks good, but falls short of the detailed display Sam saw on Xbox 360 last year. Players who ran through the paces in Microsoft-land will notice a slower framerate and the loss of a few small details (things like a smaller quantity of fights during the prison riot, different textures on character close-ups and no goggle-toggle when tossing on Sam's specs).
There are other areas where Sam and company suffer from a bout of PS3 hiccups too. In some instances, for example, snow falls everywhere but the top left-hand corner of the screen; Sam's hands occasionally clip into walls while he hacks at a wire; and the camera will sometime flip out as our hero climbs across a pipe. These miniscule glitches are forgivable, however, and it's actually quite fun to pull enemies into icy ponds, crack safes and hide in the shadows. Plus, the PS3 gets two additional multiplayer maps and a female spy that the 360 never saw.

True, the PS3 does get two more maps. Unfortunately, those maps are coming to Xbox Live via an update or downloadable content (free). Hahahahaha. Xbox 360 wins. Again. Free after you've paid for the subscription to be exact.

Difficult to evaluate, since they knocked a whopping 1.1 off the 360 review while saying that the games are identical and the graphical differences minor.
I'm really surprised that Microsoft didn't surprise. "Elite" creates expectations, and when hearing the rumours I thought that they would adress the real shortcomings of the 360 (in comparison to the PS3); WIFI and HD disc drive built in. Let's face it, the stand alone HD-DVD-drive is far from a slick solution and buying "the Elite" and then still having to shell out for the gaspingly expensive WIFI addon just makes the Elite-sticker ring slightly untrue.
Microsoft has the momentum right now and a bigger and more attractive games catalogue, and I really thought that they would introduce a system version that erased the differences between the 360 and the PS3. It could have tilted the HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray tug-of-war back towards the former, thereby attacking Sony on both ends.
