    whats all this nonsense about ps3 being much more powerful. In the end, they won't be too much different. remember sony with the ps2, it didn't end up being as powerful as it was gonna be. personally I haven't seen many games that I would buy for the ps3, and any multiplatform games I would definately get for xbox. not to mention the xbox doesn't have a freaking boomerang for a controller. I guess there's a lot of ps fanboys here.

    You wouldnt have a clue if the rev's controller does or does not. Havent any of you people heard of try before you buy. Its just too early to know.

    everyone is sayin that the xbox360's multiplayer is gonna own PS3 buy the PS3 won't be coming out till late 2006-early 2007 sony might pull off something till then which will make it a hit you will never know till you have your facts.

    my advice is to wait for a while coz many people are getting the 360 for halo3 but it comes out with the ps3 so just hold on till then you will know which one to take if u like halo 3 then buy the 360 or if u like the ps3 you can buy it then too....perfect.

    for me i will get both the consoles

    A pc with a blueray drive, it plays everything...


    as for the why the PS3 will be more powerfull,
    it's being released about a year later. prices on hardware come down quickly so they will be able to afford better components.

    I'm Getting Xbox 360 and Playstation 3

    It's gonna be very hard to Tell what one is really better Graphics wise.

    But pretty much it comes down to what kind of Games you like.

    Shooters/mmorpgs/adventure<----Xbox is a wise Choice

    RPG's/Platformers/Anime/shooters/<--Playstation 3 is a wise choice.

    but The games for PS3 look alot better than the ones for ps2
    most games for ps2 are Platformers like Ratchet and Clank,Jak,Sly.

    Anime stuff that noone really Cared about.

    Cowboy Bepop Game? (( Come on the anime was Good but a game?? come on))

    If i would buy any of new console i would go with Nintendo Revolution becouse the other two doesnt really do anything new. There is going to be the same old games like halo 3 for xbox and grand turismo 25(or what number it is on) for ps3.

    But i will most likely not buy a new console anyways.

    well that depends on what u like, if u like halo series, go for X-box, but if u like FF, God of War devil may cry games, go for the PS3.
    it is true that the PS will be mnore powerfull, but the consoles are soooo good that u cant the human eye cant tell the difference, so its all about the games...
