I think spec wise the 360 is really cool but tbh most of the best games are sometimes only made for the PS so I would recommend PS3 m8

As a longtime fan of the playstation and all it's role playing games I would love to be loyal and say wait for the PS3. Unfortunately I can't, as after all the delays and it would seem that even people in the industry have not seen a complete working PS3, only working models, as Sony still try to get the bugs out of it. The games manufacturers will also have to play catchup it seems when it is finally on the market, so there might not be as much support as they and we would hope for.
Given all this I would have to agree with Ship, that even if it is the best thing since the microchip, they are still pricing it out of the market. I think there is a new Xbox in development as we speak so the PS3 could have a short life much as the Betamax did despite in many ways being a better format than VHS.:6:

I dont know about the ps3 but the the xbox graphics is awesome. Then again I've always been a playstation fan so I'd go for the ps3. The style of the console and the size of the pad is more acceptable on the ps3 from the xbox360. :)

Well i'd go for the PS3, it has wstablished games, aswell as the capability of playing old ps1 and ps2 games on it. However at a huge price of over 500 pound, i would wait a lil while, if you do decide to get one :)

You also have to take into account the PS3 is supposed to be alot harder to develope games for and more costly. Apparently EA has more games on the way for the Nintendo Wii than the PS3

prices always drop. Look at the time when dvd was first introduced, the players were over £500, they've dropped by about £480 lol. So hopefully fingers crossed the ps3 will also drop

very true but it may be too late then if the market is flooded with 360 & Wii's

I have to agree with that. The trouble is so much time and money is spent on the development of things we don't want, like how to make it hack proof, which might last 6 month before it's cracked. I'd much rather they saved that money and just allowed it to play backups to start with.:9: If sales don't go well Sony will probably "leak" how to crack the software on the net because that instantly makes a console much more popular. Officially they have to support their game developers, but ultimately they are in the business of selling machines. Or maybe I'm just a great big cynical old Hector? :wink:

The way I see it is, if the console is satisfying, then it can keep me going for more than few yrs like my ps2. A big jump in graphics from the ps1, but the ps1 console wasnt acceptable graphics or playability as the way the ps2 and xbox range consoles are, and the games made for ps3 will also be made for ps2 but less graphical. So I think I can go on a little longer untill the ps3 is reasonably priced lol.



Your right diablo. They secure the systems then hack them themselves.

Sony should sell two versions of ps3, a normal one for the standard price and a factory chipped one for slightly more lol.

I think it will all come down to what games they make making? So far the Xbox 360 has been a bit disappointing for games.

Easy, buy a 360 and by the time you want a new console the PS3 will be ?99.

I dnt think u'll need another console the way the graphics and performance is at these days. the games already look so realistic and superfast. what more do they need to do lol.

lol,

I have a 360 and the only real good thing about it is xbox live, so far the only games that have kept my interest longer than 10 mins is Burnout Revenge and Battlefield 2. And both of the those games are available on the old generation consoles!!

I hear they struggling with the new dvd system called blueray, thats the reason why its taking so long to release. Should be interesting to have 40gb+ discs

Brother just bought a 360 and i must say the games are pretty goodps3 will probably be just the same regardless of blu-ray.

Might aswell wait till next year there will probably be another console on the market lol and what ever happened to infinium,i mean all the hype over that thing and i have never evn seen one?

Not sure why, but i'm still inclined to go for the PS3. I hope they get all the stuff sorted out soon.
