what?

PS3 has better graphics.

The Wii is still currently the best selling console in the world.

I only choose a 360 because of the reasons i said earlier.

I have a 360. I was tossing up for ages between whether to get a Playstaion 3 or Xbox 360. I went with the 360 because most of my friends use the console and I can play online with them. That's the sole reason really...

I've been a Sony guy since PS1 so thats why I went with a PS3. The free PSN was a factor too, even if it wasnt up to the same kinda standard. Thats not as much of a factor now that theres premium accounts.

That's a strong 2.5 year old article you have there. I'd be interested to see the numbers with the slim and elite 360's cause I rarely ever hear about the RROD anymore.

This was my position until I saw the PS3 launch price of $600 and took a pass on Sony this gen. Hopefully they won't make the same mistake and then I'll gladly jump back on their ship.

My apologies, so for its first 4 1/2 years of it's almost 7-year lifespan it had a 50% failure rate. That's not bad at all.

Well I would just argue that it isn't applicable anymore, i.e. if you're a consumer trying to decide between the two, it's not something really worth considering anymore.

3-4 years ago, yeah it sucked. Though I must've lucked out as I got my 360 in 2005 and haven't had any issues.

@Pete They can be a complete mess but the newer models are much improved in that regard.

Edit: Was replying without looking at the latest page.

I remember bashing Sony pretty hard in the lead up to the PS3... now I own one and I'll never give it up, I don't think I'll ever bother with a 360.

On the other hand the original Xbox was a thing of absolute beauty once it was modded, the 360... not so much.

Ultimately though it all depends on what you want to do with the machine.

I own both machines and have far more love for the 360 than the PS3. Which is the complete opposite to the first X Box and PS2, where the PS2 won hands down.

Not true. The graphics on both systems are pretty much identical. Any differences are so small that they aren't noticeable.

This should help clarify.
