I will mention it again because people ALWAYS seem to forget this..

The BEST and absolute BEST thing about the PS3... You can stream media to it from your pc. Yeap that's right folks, all your downloaded anime, music, videos, pictures etc.. you can now watch/listen to on your bigscreen in the living room.

Also any idiot can set it up. go download tversity, install on your pc.. and your ps3 will find it as a media server and bam watch whatever you want.

ummm. you can do the same thing on the 360. They had it way before the ps3. It's called windows media.

No downloading necessary. Just activate and play.

Yea but if I remember correctly the 360 will only play certain formats? The ps3 will play anything you throw at it becuase all you need is the codec on the media server end.

Either way both are good systems. But just like sound systems its all in what you are going to use it for. A competition DB sound system will sound like crap but be loud as hell, and a comp SQ system will sound great but not be heard 4/5 blocks away.

The PS3 worked better for me because gaming was a 2nd consideration over blue ray / media.

Edit - its actually funny cause the wife and me are actually looking into getting a wii for the gaming, she's more into it than any other system out there for games.

I noticed that when playing both on my PS3 and my brother's 360. I was pissed when the expansion packs came out too. ;_;

Oh well. Still love the PS3 for it's HDD space; which is theoretically infinite if you mind picking up Laptop HDDs. And the fact that as long as it's formatted right, it doesn't matter what brand you buy.. unlike being charged up the arse by Microsoft for HDD extensions. Still need to pick up a LCD flatscreen, but that's after the Camaro. :/

Final Fantasy XIII is on Xbox 360 as well.
Facebook,twitter, 1080P videos, last.fm, full game downloads, all coming to xbox live.
New motion capture controller does pretty much everything the Wii does but without a controller and has facial recognition, voice recognition, and can capture other movements.

Nintendo and Sony better have some good stuff tomorrow.

I agree with Mindz!

I have both, plus I'm a PC gamer. PC>360>Ps3 (imho)

My first 360 DID die, but I still love it! Check out this video I made. I painted my Xbox with a GOW2 theme. I was thinking of painted xbox's for side $$$, but I don't think I'll get what I deserve per job. Not many kids are willing to pay $200. for a paint job...



I also paint cars in Forza Motorsports too. I even got published in Official Xbox Magazine!

Grats on publication Hem. You're right, I'm a pretty big gamer, but I won't spend 200 bucks for a paint job. I'd rather spend that and get a japanese joystick for playing fighting games on.

This is the one I built (complete with arcade Sanwa and Seimitsu parts, with machined aluminum casing. Artwork by me...

215 after shipping and tax and all that.
