Of course not. Money is more worthily spent on other things.*

No ****? If that's the case, I'd actually consider getting Nintendo's system.. but I don't even know when it's coming out, and from the way people are talking, it seems Nintendo's system is going to be released last.

I'm going to stick with my PS2.

The PS3s they sent to the game companies melted... Plus they look like efing Printers

Hell I practically live at my spoiled friend's house. He's got two ****in $2000 computers. So if I get bored of those I can play his consoles. might get a revolution just cause they look fun.

Yeah, me and my roommate plan on pooling money and buying an Xbox. We're both fans of Final Fantasy and Gran Turismo, too, so we'll be collaborating for a PS3 too. I played the Xbox 360 at Wal-Mart... it's nice, but I wouldn't buy a system without a hard drive.

I dont know about you, but i would rather have the psu seperate, the psu is allready having a few problems, plus there was a problem with the one in the first xbox. It's a lot easyer to get that replaced than having to lose your entire console for awhile. Also the actual console size is a lot smaller, and you can hide the PSU.

the only thing is is that im not too sure about xbox live because i nor my parents have a credit card
Xbox live no longer requires a credit card.

Lmao @ this xboy..

PS3 has been proven that it sucks ass, and can't get all it's "cores" working? lmao, which ass did you pull this out from? Devs are bitching about how hard it is to develop for it because Sony hasn't sent out the final kits and developent tools yet. Find me a report that says a dev can't get it's "Cores" working.

And Xenos owns the PS3's GPU? again, stop pulling random bull**** out of anyone's ass. the RSX isn't even complete yet and you're making **** up.

Hell, compare Heavenly Sword(a PS3 title which was running on only the PPU of the Cell, and without the RSX)to any x360 title and tell me if you see any difference.

Face it, Xbox 360 is just an overhyped trash with nothing else but ports and mediocre games. It's going to be filled with half assed games(all of the launch titles can be beaten in under 10 hours, and looks no better than xbox games if you don't have a HDTV, lmao) and your average generic FPS game, much like the original xbox, so why buy a 360 if you can play the games on the clearly superior PC? rofl.

Supposedly, the Xbox 360 also crashes alot due to overheating. But suspending the PSU in the air seems to have an effect.

What are you talking about? Have you ever even played on the ps2 internet? It's the same thing as xbl minus the dashboard and friend system. I could care less about those. The gamertag bs was the only reason that xbl was p2p. Whereas PS3 will have a more sophisticated online that in ps2, it will still be free unlike xb360. Don't say 'well silver is free and that's what i want' because silver has a lot less features including downloads.

Xbox everyhitng is centralized
Ps2 everyhitng is split up and unorganized.
Only good thing I will ever say about Xbox is the way Xbox live is set up, neat and clean. You don't need ten million accounts for ten million different games like you do for the PS2, plus the unreliable servers and slow speeds on PS2.

The only glitch known so far is the overheating of the PSU. This can be easily fixed by suspending it in the air or putting a fan on it, until Micro$oft takes further actions.
