I'd say the PS3 is on pace to deliver some hot exclusive titles...God of War, Twisted Metal (in the future).

Burnout Paradise. A game with no end it's so long and open, you can freely do whatever you want.

Dragonball Z: Burst Limit...even if you aren't a fan of the show, it's ridiculously fun to play. And like Burnout you can just keep playing. There is no definitive end.

Resistance is pretty good too, but after 9 hours you'll beat the game and, well, that's it.

Okay, I'm planning on getting a PS3 soon but I have a few questions first:

1. How much longer do you think the PS3 will be around? Think it will have a similar run like the PS2?

2. What is the reliability rate for the system? I know Xbox's break like there is no tomorrow, but I hear the PS3 is a tank...very reliable. True?

3. Is there a way to backup your saved games? (like an external way to save them on a memory card) because if hypothetically I had to get Sony to replace my PS3 because something went wrong I'd lose all my saved games.

Thanks.

If true, I wonder when we'll hear confirmation? On Sunday or maybe before?

I hope this happens. I was literally about to buy one today, but I guess out of sheer luck it turns out it might be a good thing. I'll wait until March 22nd to see what happens.

The games you can download from the online store, are we talking mainstream games like GTA and Burnout, or are we talking secondary games?

Just wondering if you can download whole games to the hard drive like the 360 can?

Can anybody tell me if the 360 is a solid system? I mean, my brother has a PS3 and the thing is a tank. It feels sturdy and heavy, like a solid piece of technology (not to start a flame war here). Is the Xbox similarily sturdy feeling?

Also, I hear the fans are ridiculously loud. Are they worse than the PS3? (bias aside)

Plus I only plan to play for about an hour or so at a time, so I would hope I don't have to listen to excessively loud fans or worry about the system overheating and frying itself. I would think one hour of playtime won't make the system work all that hard?

Thanks again, this has been a tough decision for me (to get a 360 or not).

Can anybody tell me if the Xbox 360 is a solid system? I mean, my brother has a PS3 and the thing is a tank. It feels sturdy and weighty...like a solid piece of machinery. Is the Xbox similar or is it flimsy?

Also, I hear the fans are ridiculously loud on the 360. Is that true for a Jasper model?

Plus I only plan to play maybe one hour straight at the most. So I would hope the fan won't be working on overdrive/system overheating after just one hour?
