xbox 360 or ps3?

i'm thinking of getting one of the two to go along with my sony lcd hdtv. right now i'm leaning towards the 80gb ps3 since i already have ps2 games, and because it has built in blu ray which is definitely a nice bonus. what are the advantages and disadvantages of each system?

i have a PS3 and im loving it...
xbox 360 has been owning ps3 so far until this past november 2006...
now the possibility is limitless for PS3... welcome... Metal Gear Solid 4 for PS3, the key to winning the console wars...

Dave T... any thoughts? ask dave T, he knows a lot bout vid. games

My personal opinion is that if you are worried about games now and would by chance consider picking up the other system sometime in the future, go with a X360.

If you are looking for the future and deciding on a single system and going by the potential of what the systems could be seeingand now that developers should finally be catching up with their knowledge of the PS3, I would go with a PS3. It playing Blu-Ray out of the box is also awesome as it's Blu-Ray picture output might be the best on the market.

Right now PS3 hasn't had too many originals (usually takes a good 12-18 months before we start seeing these things after a console's launch, so we should start seeing them soon) and its ports have been shoddy. But now that the dev kits are everywhere and developers know how to work on the systme, ports should be better.

I cannot wait for Gran Turismo 5 (looks better than anything on X360 as far as racing games. Nothing comes close!), MGS4, Killzone 2, and others....

Wii Sports has big replay value too. Zelda, Guitar Hero...the whole slew of Nintendo back catalog. There's loads on the Wii.

personally i find most 1st party games for any nintendo console more fun than any other games ive tried on friends xboxes/ps#s. only thing more entertaining is PC multi-player games esp MMOs which I recommend you stay away from

Love my 360. Attached the HD-DVD player too.

Plan on soon getting a Wii next . . . then a PS3.

Why not have them all? Life is short.

Gran Turismo 5

PS3 has no games worth playing and only 1 on the horizon (MGS4) that I know of, the question is whether or not to get an X360 or just be satisfied with your mandatory Wii. The 360 lineup used to be really terrible too, but it's doing well enough now.

But really, we all know that real gamers are PC gamers. Spend that $400 on a new video card (8800GT is cheap and kicks serious ass) and a RAM upgrade and you'll be much happier

you're forgetting about gran turismo 5, gta4, and deveil may cry 4. i don't play games all that often anymore so my focus was on getting an all in one entertainment system. free network and online play on the ps3 are definitely a bonus, i dont like paying for stuff.

that being said i bought an 80gb ps3 yesterday, and i love it so far. and yes if you wanna play games, PC games probably offer the best graphics and gameplay, but my desktop pc is so unstable i can pretty much shit on it. not worth upgrading.
