xBox 360 or PlayStation 3

XBox 360

Better games, wider choice of games, better versions of games (a lot of the 360 versions have features the PS3 counterparts do not), better graphics IMO, MUCH  better for Internet gaming, Sony still haven't got that right.

Developers also seem to prefer programming for the 360, much easier, which means in the unlikely event of a game getting delayed it is more likely going to happen to the PS3 version.

Also you get a lot more HD space.

Oh, and it's backwards compatible with cheap Xbox games (which are still rather good).

Now I'm no fan of M$, but as a 360 owner myself and having used a PS3 and looked at games on both systems, these are the facts I have discovered. Not to mention Sony treat their European customers like s***.

HAHAHA. you sound just like one...

Read my post again, I said I'm not a Microsoft fan.

blu-ray sales are 4:1 compares to HDDVD. and the xbox doesnt even have a HDDVD drive.(it's an option that many wont take)

I don't know many people who play movies on their console. It is irrelevant, it is a games console, for games. The Wii doesn't play HD or Blue Ray either, yet that is constantly sold out.

Soon games will come out on multiple DVD's for the xbox.

I doubt it but so what if they did? A lot of Amiga games came on multiple floppies, its no big deal.

THE XBOX360 is LOUD! be warned.

It's no louder than the average PC, and I think most people by now have got used to the subtle fan noise you hear from a PC. That is all you hear from a 360.
It is nowhere near as bad as the original PS2's IMO.

I agree Blue-Ray is already winning the battle if you ask me. But this thread is about games consoles used for their primary purpose of playing games.
