dumbass... ....

you should of waited... ps3 is gonna blow the 360 out of the water.... all the specs on the ps3 are at least twice as powerful as the 360... ps3 also has more gaming contracts... also you can play old school psone and ps2 games... yada yada yada.. the list goes on and on......

360 isn't even going to release halo till mid spring... their flagship game isn't even on their opening roster... it's a same but microsoft is gonna die..

360 is also planning on dropping the price to their systems sometime in summer (to try to compete) after the ps3 is released in mid spring......


the 360 was technically supposed to be released at around the same time as the ps3... but after the gaming convention where microsoft saw the specs on the ps3.. they decided to release it earlier to get a jump start on the market...
And when that time comes around. You'll see a post saying "I just payed for my PS3."

I was planning on buying both of them anyways. I'm sure you'll be over the house playing the 360. I have also pre order DOA4 and PGR 3.

yeah it sucked, I ttok a guilty plea and paid like $151, but they told me that the points might or might not transfer, and so I dont know until I get something from the MVA.

Note: this court house was in a little hick town that looked like something out of the Wonder Years.
damn, well after seeing that i'm glad i paid i didn't waste my time going down there to pay the same amount i paid over the phone

thats because RPG games have been lacking in the story/game play area lately.. except for a few.....

but now they have no excuse with the power of ps3.... the graphic capabilities are like beyond what people can program..

Yeah. That's without the external hard drive. I'm quite sure that PS3 will probably have the same thing. One stripped down version and one loaded version.

as far as i know.. sony has no plans in doing so.... all their systems will be full blown.... with wireless controlers, internet, yada yada yada..

microsoft made a stripped down version to try to get a bigger market......

i gotta admit tho.. microsoft is good with business.. but they are still gonna lose the console battle with sony.... microsoft needs to stick to creating software... not hardware...

That's what they all say. Until the system comes out. Microsoft didn't say anything about it until you could pre-order the system. I think Sony is going to do the same thing. One reg system and one with a couple of xtra things (which you could buy seperately, of course).
