I've got both and each have pro's and con's. If I had to buy just one right now it would be the 360. If you have an HD tv and are really into Blu-ray, you can't go wrong with the PS3.

i love my 360 and i believe they have more game titles that are worth playing than the PS3. I have it with an HD and its amazing playing like that. I am planning on getting a PS3 in the next few months mainly for the blu ray and all. I guess it depends on what you really wanting to use them for.

360 all the way... blue ray players are cheaper than the ps3... so if you want a blu ray player just buy a player then a 360.

that's what i would say. 360 has the best games out & the best online features. i'm really digging the ability to watch netflix thru my 360. all in all tho the next gen consoles are suppose to come out around 2010. i'm willing to bet that the new xbox will be blue ray or better as well. so i'd just get the 360 w/3 year warranty & get a blue ray player for movies. getting a seperate dvd player will be a lot easier on the console too.

I have all 3 and I use the 360 the most. If Metal Gear and God of War were available on the 360 then I probably never would have bought the PS3. Also go for the elite, if you plan on getting Rock Band 2 and download the songs from part 1 and other songs then you will need the extra memory.

I'd say to go with the PS3. I've got one and love it. My brother has a 360 and it's nice as well. You really can't go wrong with either, to be honest. But a 360 + a blue ray player is going to cost more than a PS3 would, and it'll do everything right out of the box... Just something to think about. And while the 360 may have a bigger library of games; how many do you actually buy and play anyway?? Honestly? I've got more games than I actually ever play for my PS3... They largely just sit and collect dust. Good luck either way!

I'm a stickler for graphics due to all my years of online pc gaming. The 360's are almost tapped out on how good the graphics will be for now. The ps3 is only using about 40% of their capability.

do you like to play online? do your friends play online? if they do & you get a ps3 that'll make it so you can't pplay games w/them & party up. i agree about the ps3 being nicer. the 360's online features are very robust. something ps3 wishes they had. not saying that ps3 doesn't have good online games just saying that that xbox live is the leader of the three when it comes to online services.

Rumor has it, although M$ is steadily denying it, that MS is going to release a stand alone Blu-Ray player for the 360 (like the HD-DVD player they had). With this release, it will nullify the argument of buying a PS3 just for the Blu-Ray.

hmmm, haven't heard that one. blu-ray is nice but i really don't want to re-buy my video library. i'm very content w/the regular dvd format as my dvd player upconverts & so does my tv. after all the upconversion i'm watching movies in 720. when it comes to games that's where i want blu-ray.

PS3
Well I work at a Gamestop so I know alot bout these things. Well the PS3 beats the xbox 360 in every area. The PS3 has a built in Wi Fi wireless connection.( you dont have to have wires to connect to the internet. For the 360 you have to spend an extra 99.99 bucks to make it wireless. The pS3 has a internet browser ( you can check your highlifter, myspace, etc straight from your console. 360 does not. PS3 has an updateable Blue ray player ( thay meens it will beat any high price blue ray you buy at best buy because it caint get updates). The 360 does not, you have to pay extra to get a true Hi-Def player for your 360 console. The PS3 now has a 160 GB Hardrive, the largest ever put in a console. The largest 360 hardrive is 120. The PS3 has a suction cup for the disk player so you can tilt the PS3 up-rite even while its playing, the 360 does not, you have to turn it off then do it and if you dont you will destroy the disk. ( That does not really matter though.) The PS3 has 8 processers the 360 has only 3. Both consoles have a life span for about 15 years so we wont see anything new (consoles) for awhile. But in the years to come The PS3 will beat everything the Xbox has to offer. The reason the PS3 does not have many games to offer rite now is because the companys are having truouble keeping up with the capabilitys of the PS3. Thats why theres not so many Solo games out rite now for it. And rite now were only using about 25% of are consoles, everytime we get an update where using part of are consoles never used before. But you give the PS3 another 1-3 years the games will be unreal. But after all this beleive it or not I have a xbox 360 rite now. It just has more games to offer rite now. But im about to get the PS3, Hope this helps, let me know.

Mudcat Grizz you are correct, it also supports 1080p through component cables as well. The only thing i can add is that if your friends all have 360's and you want to play online with them. Get the 360 it would only make sense.

Y do you want the elite? Unless you are going to watch and save HD movies to your hard drive its not needed.

This is what we have been trying to tell you. you can still get the HD quality out of the regular xbox 360's. you do not have to have the elite to get HDMI support or HD support through the component cables. you can save money and buy the 200 dollar 360 and it will all work the same as the elite. You can even buy an upgraded HD for the 200 dollar xbox later if you want
