604189 2007-10-22 08:01:00 Definitely not.

Neither of them are that great, but i'd take a PS3 over an Xbox 360 any day of the week. Game titles will come...it has built in support for BluRay. And it doesn't overheat nearly as easily. It is far sexier. And really, I don't give a rat's arse about Halo. Consoles will never get anywhere near what a good PC is capable of. PCs ftw.

604190 2007-10-22 08:03:00 Has anyone had experience with both of them? I'm looking into one for xmas for the family plod (107)
604191 2007-10-22 08:07:00 If I were to choose one, It would be based on games and price, Xbox has far better games lineup and a far better price.

Do I think its flop?

Yep.

Though that could change at any time with a few good games.

Laughable though how once again it was hyped to be a super computer and its good for bugger all, and as poweful as a wet fart.

Agreed, Which is why the Wii is killing it by expanding its market from traditional gamers to men and women of all ages and it is a reasonable price. The Wii also has plenty of scope for expansion while staying affordable.

604195 2007-10-22 08:50:00 No Halo. 'Nuff Said...

The prices now, atleast in the US are only $50US apart so its just the games and XBOX LIVE that kicks ass in and boy, does it do it well :thumbs:

604196 2007-10-22 09:17:00 It's early days for the P3, but it looks to me as if it might lose this console generation battle big time. LiquidSolidity (1589)
604197 2007-10-22 10:47:00 Nice one sided Poll you have there.

The PS3 is an entertainment console not just for gaming (AIO). And may I add that they are adding DVR at the end of the year, this coupled with the ability to add your own HDD as big as you want into the console is better then paying $400 on a separate unit.
