I myself like the 360, I don't have one but the controllers fit in your hands almost better than the gamecube's wavbird with rubmle feature :p (urse you nintendo >_<). Aside from the controller the games look great, and the 360 has a good, strong line-up as well. Dead Rising super cool :p, gears of war is going to rock out loud, and other games you just can't see on computers yet.
Will the PS3 beat microsoft? yes and in only one category: technology. They only want the blue ray, and people with hd tv's already in their house; no one else. Shame how sony's alienating kids thinking $600 is a walk through the park, when that could be food for three months or more, a good car payment, etc. etc (yes I know that's blind bias saying that stuff, but you gottremember it's expensive)
PS3 was delayed Twice.
The first reason was the price of Blueray disk, they knew if they released it with 360, the games would be waaay to expensive (around 100) so they waited next year. This year its been delayed until march of 07...I dont know if that is true though...
It is true, but only in Europe, the reason for that is because they can't make enough consoles (more specificly blu-ray drives) before the original release date
I have one, it's a PC version (basicly the controller with wire, a converter to plug it in a regular USB socket, and a disc with Windows drivers - it can be simply used in the X360 aswell), and i like it, it's nice yes.Quote:

Ehm what the hell are you talking about? The reason why PS3 will be shit is because of the blu-ray, it's the reason why the PS3 is going to cost so much, as it's very expensive to make.Quote:

Now you might say people want it for that, but that's a load of crap as blu-ray is hardly used at all, DVD is still the standard, the main reason of Sony putting in the blu-ray is in the hope it will become the next standard, but due to the costs of it, people will simply pass it up.
Btw people, it's Blu-Ray, not Blue-Ray.
I love my 360. Totally worth getting... but its 100% better with XboxLive :p
Not really... The Xenos GPU that the 360 uses is a more powerful version of the current top of the line ATI card. In fact it's being used as a guidline for the DX10 card that ATI is making and comming out next year.
Where as the PS3 uses a slowed down version of the G71. Which is the gForce 7900. And that GPU is inferior to the Xenos.
The PS3 does have a good processor. A 2.8ghz Cell processor. It's much more powerful then the 3.4ghz processor that the 360 use but it's actually much slower then that it was orginnaly sposed to be.
Also the PS3 does have a BluRay player but the 360 has the abillity to add on an HD DVD player. So in terms of play back they are pretty equal in quality. Though the BluRay is much slower then the standard DVD player of the 360 and it doesn't really matter as most game will never be over 10gb any time soon so the extra storage of the BluRay is pointless.
What the PS3 does have over the 360 is HDMI support with the 60gb version. Then again you can buy the HDMI add on for the 360 by the end of the year. Even then the PS3 wont actually come with the cable so you'll need to spend $100 for it and with the 360 you can just spend the same ammout for the add-on with the cable.
What I ment was I streamed it over the network from another computer. I'll try it when I get back to the states next week.
Well that $300 was the estimate that I've read a while ago. They are actually $199. Much cheaper then what they said it was going to be.
Also the 360 might drop in price to $200 and $300 when the PS3 is released. Simply to utterly kill any hope in the PS3's success and slighly hurt the Wii.
There's no way the PS3 will do well when you can get a 360 for less then half with almost all 3rd party games on both systems.

1. well to a high end computer it would get stomped due to the fact the cpu is garbage but the gpu is pretty damn good but when the 7950gtx came out the gpu kinda lost its touch
2. you have to convert your videos to wmv to play which sux for the fact you lose quality.
3. really all silver is for is making sure you have your system fully updated to be able to play more standard xbox games.
4. system is very heat sensitive. there is rumors going around that there is going to be a version 2 with a better cpu but again that is a rumor.
5. The big ones is the Xbox live vision camera because you can mask your face on to in game charcters in some games. the media center extender will allow you to be able to stream tv from your media center pc with a tv tuner card to your 360. Lots of exclusive games.
You are kidding right? The g71 is an inferior GPU then the r500. The only reason why the 7950 is fast is because it's two of them. The r500 in every which way if supior then the g71. Image quality, texturing, and HDR support.
Yes they are very heat sensitive. Hell the PS2 can be heat sensitive also. It's all down to the ventilation of the system. As long as it has good air flow there will be no problems.
And yes there's going to be a section version of the xbox 360. Just like there was with the PS2 and xbox. The current CPU is on a 90nm process I belive. So what can they do about it? Turn it into a 65nm process. That would make it cheaper to make and run a hell of a lot cooler.
How can you tell when it comes out? Simply when you see the price drop around $100. 65nm is already made and should be out by the end of the year. They are thinking about dropping the price when the PS3 lauches so soon after that they all should be 65nm.

OMG DONT BUY XBoX 360 ur bills will be sky high and what do u know mabye ur house will burn down wait till the ps3 comes out....ps3 will have optical controllers and all....and they look sooo preettttyyy......and dont buy the tv-remoted wii to :D ps3 is the best.....cmon ps is the thing.....sexbox isnt so great...ps2 has divx player mp3 player and all kinda shit....well i hope u will wait till the ps3 will come out :D....i played xbox 360 with my friend....it was painfull.....overheat,overheat,overheat....cant understand why he still likes it :P
Stop spamming...
when it comes down to it really. I really dont care about the specs of systems because I cant judge it until i see it in action so when i get to see a ps3 in action i would further judge it against the 360 which is alright but the lack of games needs to hurry up and change but i suppose it will since the holiday season is already here
