Xbox360 will soon have a HD-DVD player which is similar to Blu-Ray. Argue all you want about which is better you wont know until they are out.

Speaking of the new GTA, it is coming out on 360 aswell and rockstar are signing deals with MS to have Xbox Live support and to have GTA released on the 360 first.

360 have some amazing games coming out shortly like Prey, Saints Row (like GTA, you can form gangs over Xbox Live) Test drive unlimited not to mention Xbox Live Arcade where you can download some awesome retro games like Street Fighter II, Geometry Wars and even UNO!

S1l3nt i would just wait to PS3 comes out and then make your decision. I personally chose a 360 because its better financially and the games (Halo, GTA IV, Chrome hounds, oblivion) the list goes on because i dont like Metal; gear solid and games like that

im gonna take the fanboy route and say: Get a 360

ok ok arrived in this conversation l8 so i gunna giv my opion in full.

the xbox 360 will be the more capable of the 2 in respects to graphix and so forth.
With regard to blue ray vs dvd , dvd will win, it is a cheaper alternative more stable and wider used.
Plus there are going to be no game developers left for sony as most have signed with microsoft.
i will aslo miss the rumble feature in the ps3 pads.

I Own a 360 and would not swap it 4 nefin.

How can you make out this tho. you havent even tried it. i think nintendo have stepped up to what people want. that is something never tried before. but problem is, people are just scared to try new things. You cant say its pathetic, it isnt even out yet. so dont judge things too early, wii is gonna be a wake up call to the opposition.

I know im not one to say its pathetic but honestly its last appearance wasnt really a welcome with gamecube what happend then huh? they tried to delve into new things by having a mini disk games and how many people bought it....Not enough to say it went good in the market. BTW people aren't scared to try new things,There just dont wanna waste there money on something there not sure on xbox and sony have had a constant stance in the market for there consoles and nintendo cant compete when every once in a blue moon it will pop up and make some design and think they'll get a applause,It doesnt work like that...

We will just wait and see. Yes GCN wasnt that great, but theres alot more to the nintendo wii other than just the motion sensitivity (which sony most kindly stole) if it wernt for nintendo, where would we be? GCN sales in the past year have skyrocketed in asian countries. givin ninty something. thats all they need. and playstation were just a big upset of e3. they are not ready with the ps3, especially with such games as killzone 2 only having similar things to show what they had at last year. Microsoft went well strongly but NINTY had the large line ups the huge crowds of ppl. Thats called anticipation, its what the people asked for and its what nintendo are giving them.

The Xbox 360's CPU has more general purpose processing power because it has three general purpose cores, and ps3 has just one.
The Xbox 360 GPU has more processing power than the PS3's. In addition, its innovated features contribute to overall rendering performance
Xbox 360 has 278.4 GB/s of memory system bandwidth. The PS3 has less than one-fifth of Xbox 360's (48 GB/s) of total memory system bandwidth

CONCLUSION
When you break down the numbers, Xbox 360 has provably more performance than PS3. Keep in mind that Sony has a track record of over promising and under delivering on technical performance. The truth is that both systems pack a lot of power for high definition games and entertainment.

However, hardware performance, while important, is only a third of the puzzle. Xbox 360 is a fusion of hardware, software and services. Without the software and services to power it, even the most powerful hardware becomes inconsequential. Xbox 360 games?'by leveraging cutting-edge hardware, software, and services?'will outperform the PlayStation 3.

Well GTA wont be to far away and PS3 is geting released at the end of the year. GTA could be released this year. Even it is released after PS3 release it will more than likely be released on 360 first because rockstar have signed deals for Xbox Live content and maybe even gameplay.

Patty16 get ur facts rite!! wii has teh strongest graphics chip out of all three systems!! xbox and ps3 are cheating by using hidef.. and making it a fad but its like increasing the resolution to make ur games look better on computer!! its using ur TV hardware.. Wii will output based on a better gfx chip which is wired to provide amazing graphics on a normal tv. you sound young and inexperienced when u say nintendo has always stuck to gameboys and 'stuff'. Need i remind u that between 1985 and 1996 nintendo Owned!! even gamecube was a good contender.. but sony plays its cards right!! nowadays nintendo has an almost niche market.. we are seeing revolutionss from nintendo atm.. especailly with the DS and also with the Wii!! Wii is gonna rock and tho it might not be the coolest console.. it will be the one which will appeal to the widest range of audience.. people said the DS was a gimmick (Myself included) i got my DS a while ago and i got brain training and im doing abt 3 hours a day!! and I hate maths!! lol (Now i'll need a brain untrainer to help me unwind). You obviously havent played mario kart online.. It is the works!! much better than any psp game online.. Except maybe if ridge racer was online!!!

Now to my next point .. hmm.. who was i gonna flame!!! umm..

ok I am sick of people saying sony has a track record of over promising and under delivering.. dont use that sentence just coz u think it makes u sound all professional and credible!! we've heard it to death!! Sony has underdelivered in terms of specs ok!! but not in terms of quality!! srsly u have ur facts wrong too!!

first of all the ps3 has a single cell processor and the xbox 360 has a tricore processor with each core clocked to 3.2 ghz keep in mind this does not mean 9.6 ghz of power. the cell has 1 power-pc processing element and 7 synergistic processing elements clocked to 3.2 ghz. the ram is same both have 512 clocked to 700mhz except on the ps3 the ram is split 1/2 1/2 between processor and graphics which could be a bit of a bad thing. PS3 has true HD dolby output (provided you have the speakers to support it) xbox had normal dolby.

The ps3 system bandwidth is 204.5 ghz not 48 ghz. in all other module bandwidths the ps3 matches or outdoes the 360. the xbox 360 live service costs and the ps3's package is gonna be free.. And if u saw e3 videos ud know its cool. btw the ps3 processes at a 'tested' 256Gflops (single percision) and the 360 does 115gflops.

take all this with a pinch of salt..they all have their ups and downs. but jst b4 u go out an buy a shiny new 360 make sure u have a hd tv or else you will be dissapointed. Also ask urself whether u would be jealous of ur friend who got his new ps3 4 months down the track when he gets it.. hope this helps

Im not trying to diagree to start S*#T but im just a playstation person had one all my life until i got a xbox when it came out and i hardly touched it but im stuck in the same position as tom coz i heard the ps3 has blu ray some special disk which will make for bigger space for games and xbox 360 doesnt,But xbox is cheaper and has roughly same specs I.E wifi,wireless control,cool games,hard drive and ps3 has 2 versions with 20gb and 60gb and he 20gb doesnt have as many features and it pisses me off so im kinda leaning towards xbox.anyway long story short can some put this into perspective for me and explain which is worth the money or the wait,

P.S -
honestly im only gettin these to see the outcome on the GTA games and gran turismo
