The 360 will be old technology in about a year or so whenever the PS3 starts picking up momentum.

They've maxed out the potential for a 360 and the PS3 is just waiting to get harnessed.

You choose.

ps3 by far, its got free online, way less problems, wireless internet (80gig version), controllers are crazy light, it has slots that you can plug a camera memory card, or a psp memory card into, no batteroes in the wireless controllers, simply plug them in for an hour or two and they last for another 2 days..... theres prolly way more i cant think of at the moment, but its up to you......:blah:

edit: I have one also if you need to ask any questions.

a family member has a ps3 and i have the 360 elite and if your only looking for a few games i would go the ps3 way. the 360 though has way more good games available and the online play may cost money but is much more fun and the elite version has no reported issues to date because it was released somewhere around 3 months after the other 2 versions. not sure on the hbomb movies but i know that you can download movies from xbox live and it the 360 is an hd dvd player (yes i know its still not blue-ray but hd works just fine for me)

sorry 360 guys. but i think the 360 is not even comparable to ps3, yeah you can get live, but it cost money, which stops people from getting live, and that means less people online, ps3 gets it for free, and it has a web browser, and i typed this all using my ps3....the ps3 doesnt break like the 360 does. they have a 33% chance of breaking, and for some games they come in 2 discs because their hd disk cant hold that much. and ps3 has them on 1 disc, give ps3 a while and xbox wont even be in the shadow of ps3..and like previously stated, you can put a camera card in there, upload photos. and you can use a camera card as a memory card to over at your friends house. and it can also be linked to your psp systems, and i know it doesnt have as many games as xbox, but they arent far behind...just my thoughts about the two

If you're considering getting a system for MX vs ATV Untamed, consider this, quoted directly from Gamespot.

"The Bad,
Not a great-looking game, especially on the PS3"

This seems to be consistent with a number of games available for both the PS3 ans 360.

remember that warner bros just went into blu-ray so that did put a big hurt on 360's and HD DVD. Thus meaning that ps3 will blow up very soon. So go ps3, 360 will be in the dirt in due time

Not at all.

I was just pointing out that the game you were mentioning buying a system for was of better quality on the 360 and that seems to be the trend with a number of games that are released mulit-platform.
