PS3 has very few games, and even fewer worth playing IMO. Wait awhile before getting a PS3. I would get a wii if I could find one.... looks like a lot of fun.

wii is fun...ps3 needs a lot more time yet....xbox 360 ftw!

360 has the best games...looks amazing on hd and is cheaper and xbox live rules.

Madison Dave has it right. 360 does have the best games, best online, and best wireless controller.

You will get more use out of the Xbox 360 right now. If you have an HDTV, the HDDVD drive is AWESOME!

I have a Nintendo Wii and the Xbox 360 with HDDVD. The Wii gets FAR more use than the Xbox 360. I will be picking up a PS3 mainly for Bluray and Motorstorm.

depends what you want to play... I PERFER 360 ALL THE WAY!

PS3 offers more games geared towards sports and arcade games...

wii is like PS3 but is a lot more interactive!

360 has sports, fictional, and LIVE <<< (which is the sh!t)

I have the 360 as well and it is awesome. I would wait a bit because version 2 is coming out with HDMI support.

Thanks for the feedback guys, looks like my next non car/girlfriend related purchase will be a 360.

Side note, who the heck gave neg rep for this thread? lol

i dont care that much about the hdmi i have a 720p tv...but the new rumored 120 gig hard drive will be nice..hopefully it will be a seperate add on for the 360 version 1 as well.

The only thing that sucks about the XBox live is that you have to pay for it. With PS3 and PS2 its free. I think that Microsoft makes enough as it is but yet they still charge for their online play which IMO is bullshit.

Yeah, I have a hidef tv too. The component cable does enough for me graphics wise but I would like to see how it would look using the HDMI cable. The 120gig would be the bigger advantage of getting the version 2. And what I have read this will be sold seperately as well.

$50 a year, which isn't that bad. I think it is well worth it.

I would gladly pay a subscription fee for the PS2 online, if it would work 100%of the time. A few friends of mine and I race ATVs and stuff online on PS2, and half the time someone has connection issues, dropped connections, cant sign on, someone gets booted in the middle of the game, shit like that.

My cousin is a big gamer, he said the Wii rules over all. Ive heard of alot of issues with the PS3 getting hot and crashing.
