neither il pour my money into the pc but the ps3 looks like its going to have better specs from what i can tell.
true, i follow that, but i'd pick PS3, just never liked xbox, but that's probably becaues i never got one and i had the ps2
hey glitch, why would you copy a 100 lines post to say that??? Anyway IMO those features are non sense, thats what makes ppl get confused. all consoles are almost the same, maybe one is a bit better but doesnt matter, what matters is the creativity of games and stuff, thats why nintendo is still Nº1, its the only one with games different fro mthe PC games. NINTENDO REVOLUTION!!
I think Im gonna go for the PS3 over the XBOX 360, I heard more changes were gonna be made form PS2 to PS3 then XBOX to xbox 360 but Im really lookin forward to Nintendo Revolution over both
So you're going to get a console, which will be the console that will cost the most, just for 1 or 2 games. Thats pretty damn stupid. In fact, I think that everyone that will buy xbox1.5 will buy it for that game. Screw Sony and M$ go Nintendo!
XB360 mainly out of loyalty but also because I prefer the games on xbox compared to PSX, PS1, PS2 with the exception of the final fantasy series
I can't decide just yet. I chose xbox over the ps2 two years ago (simply because my cousins already had a ps2, so we could play games from each console). I've come to enjoy my xbox more than their ps2. Now that I've seen Sony's new console, I'm not sure which one I'll get. 360 will have Halo 3 and probably some more good titles, but the same goes for the ps3 and revolution. So I'm gonna wait until I see reviews of each console's big titles and make my decision off that.
