Jew - don't get me wrong, I will probably have a PS3 eventually, when some decent games come out and not just 'ported across' games like Ranibow Six and COD4. Little Big Planet looks awesome but not out until October and of course MGS4, but again, a july release is stated, but probably won't be ready for then. As I said above somewhere, the PS3 is definitely the machine of the future but no way is it the present hardcore gamers choice. I have both Xbox 360 and PS3 so I get best of both worlds I guess, But in my mind I know that xbox 360 was exactly the same when it first launched, I thought that it would crash and burn really fast, but It didnt, and I feel the same will happen to PS3.... Also If I had to choose any gaming platform it would be PC PC owns all.

So jew, what you are saying is. XBox had it's problems but got them all sorted and the PS3 still has problems that they are working on? XBox 360 wins it then. I had the 360 from launch day and never had problems playing online, I've had the red ring of death and sent it away and was back 8 days later with a new mother board fitted, brilliant support i'd say from Microsoft. The thing I don't like with the PS3 and what I didn't like with the PS2 was that most of the games are designed with the Japanese/Chinese markets in mind, cheesy cut scenes with subtitles. I'm not really a gamer but spend a lot of time online winding the yanks up, easy picking. As I say ive not had ANY errors/bugs AT ALL with the PS3 and had excellent online gaming, I have both Xbox and PS3 and as far as Online goes I see no difference, COD4 on xbox has way more players for sure, but Xbox had been out 2 year before PS3 was out so it doesnt bother me, Ive ALWAYS got a game online at any time of the day on the PS3 online. I am more a technical guy, I love knowing whats inside the machines and taking them appart and messing around, with the PS3 you can upgrade the hardrive to as high as 1000gb if you wanted to...but with the 360 the highest is 120gb (I tihnk) As far as hardware goes, the PS3's insides are far superior to the 360's in everyway, Processors, Memory, Motherboard, harddrive, blu-ray and even the wi-fi, if you wanted to use xbox wireless you had to pay £70 for an adapter....

PS3 all the way. By far the best console IMO but I agree it's a bit behind the 360 at the moment. I can handle that as only just recently 'proper' games have started coming out and they will only continue to get better The Wii is great IF (a great big if as well) there's someone to give you a game on it I wouldn't touch the 360 at all. I've played on it and I hate it. No reason except, I just do In summary, if you're after a short term fix for games, go for the 360. Want a console that's easy and fun for the whole family, go with the Wii. Long term option, PS3

ive just been to the black rock to get some dynamite to blow open the sealed up doors in the hatch, had to go to the black rock, died once when it blew up because i started running away from the smoke monster, just blanted it, but ive got nothing to light it with, just got a hint that i need to use a bullet, but the only person with a gun is sawyer, so i need to find some things to trade with him, luckilly ive got some beer which i found at the crash site, they are worth $40 each on the island

It's all about the games.
I got an XBox 360 before Christmas, which was a great decision. Far more great games to choose from at the moment. If the PS3 catches up or overtakes at any point I could always sell the Xbox and buy that. Easy.
Wii seems to have different types of games aimed at different types of people. Good fun with mates, good for children and women.

Bread.. I'm not saying that The PS3 is the better console, it's just behind at moment in terms of the games that have been released on both consoles However, a 2 year head start hasn't half helped the 360, but according to SCEE President David Reeves, the PS3 is to take over the 360 this summer www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=180493A two year headstart and its only taken the PS3 just over a year to overtake the 360 (based on projected sales figures)
