    PS3 didn't rush out to get their system out. They took their time and it will prove that it is the best system out there when people buy it and it becomes BIG really quick. Also think about how Microsoft rushed to get 360 out last Christmas, it was good but had some weak games to start out. PS3 isn't going to have weak games when it comes out. They aren't going to have features taken out of Madden or NCAA when it came out like when the 360 came out. PS3 should rip 360 in pieces when it comes out this Friday. Mark my words.

    actualyl it was delayed a lto because the whole PS3 project ----ted on itself. Oriiginalyl it was mean that Cell would save sony money as it woudl do both CPU and GPU calculations but that ----ted on itself

    then theres the fact that manufacturing cell is hard at this time yields are onyl around the 10% mark and the best CPUs are going to medical research, the worst are going to PS3s.

    the PS3 is a good idea too early...

    about 5 years too early.

    and tis more rushed than the xbox 360 as its design has been changed and downgraded so many times. it was originally thought to be 50% mroe pwoierful than the 360. As it is now it has a weeker GPU and the CPu albiet more powerful is ahrder to program for. Also the RAM allotment(256mb gddr3 for the GPU and 256mb XDR for the CPU) allows for higher performance in properly coded applications with small working sets for the enviroment but can hinder performance if the working data set for either part becomes too large - with PCs you have game seating over 1024mb of RAM.

    Also both the Xbox 360 and the PS3 are about 2 years out of date in terms of performance.

    if I had to buy a console I'd buy a wii simply due to its new IO implementation.

    If i had to buy a PS3, I'd pop it open swap out the crap 60GB ahrddrive for a 200GB drive, install linux on the thing(if its possible) and use it as a backup computer - it could actually be a decent cruncher - it just doesn't have enough system RAM to run linux and firefox at the same time...

    for me its the 360. if you like online gaming, xbox live cant be beaten or even matched for that matter. sony is trying hard to model their online service off of xbox live but imo, it might be too little too late because xbox live is 4 years or so in the makign and sony is just now trying to come up with something to compete and it just wont be happening.

    I have to agree, i think the xbox 360 is much better. From what i've seen i personally dont think its worth the money.

    I'm not too sure here. Xbox 360 has some good things but doesn't seem very promising. PS3 has sokme nice stuff too but has a high,HIGH price.I would just go with a Wii now.
