Yeah I was actually watching your vid on your vibrant catback (nice vid by the way) and I was bored so I checked out your other vids. I see you used to have an EX auto but traded up to an Si, lucky bastard.

New ps3 dual core instead of quad, not backwards compatable. 5-10 mins to install a game before you can play it. PS3 ftl

Microsoft just did a press release. Decided to include blue-ray in the new 360 and they have the capability to play blue-ray games. They'll probably call it xbox720. xbox ftw

I have the PS3 60 gig I believe (not really sure, I just came home and it was in the living room haha). It's aight, but I had a way better time with the original XBOX. I haven't really played much on the 360 but it's better in that you don't need an update everytime you get a new game. Oh, how that pisses me off. I get a new game, I wanna play it! Not wait around for another update! ahhh! Anyways, I'm looking to get a 360 soon just to play some Halo 3 and see if I still got the skills! haha but yeah so far, I think they are pretty much even. But with the new releases that the PS3 is getting, I think it'll edge out the 360.

I decided to give them a chance and got a Wii for Smash bros. Good game but the lack of a capable online service failed!!!

[Bandit03]

smash bros would be the only exception that game was kick ass on 64

Yeah it was preety bad its okay now but it still wouldent work intill had to take out my router and take it straight to my modem.

But on another note when In the helicopter when taking it thru the City the ps3 rendered it perfectly fine but when I was on my friends 360 it when choppie and lagged in the rendering department.

i havent had any issue like that, at first it kept disconnecting before i could even join the game, and ive noticed that playing online if theres like 6 people in a shootout with cars crashing and shit exploding it goes really slow, but i think thats more because theres so much happening in the game, but other than that its been flawless this whole week

Incorrect.

I'm on my 4th 360. The first lasted 4 months before the drive failed. The second lasted 2 weeks before it redringed. The third lasted about 2 months before the graphics chipset began overheating and locking up. Interestingly, there was no redring the third, just fail.

I always keep my consoles clean and with plenty of ventilation. They sit on top of the TV stand, not in a cubby. I keep the cables uncluttered. The power source has good ventilation, too. These were just design and manufacturing defects, no way around it.

That being said, my first PS3 was actually broken when I bought it. The drive wouldn't recognize any discs. I exchanged it the next day and everything has worked perfectly since then.

Which is better? All in all, I give the title to PS3, mainly because it is much more adaptable. 360 has a lot more games that I want to play. I probably have 10 or so 360 games but only 3 PS3 games. But that's changing right now. PS3 is bringing along all the great games I've been waiting for. And I use it for movies and a few other things as well.

PS3 > 360 already, and the gap is widening.
