No the real question is, why get a 360 over a PS3. Get the one that has
the exclusives you really want and either one will probably play nearly
all the same games as the other. Now, I'll be getting both, but that's
just cause I want to play both console's exclusives. But if I didn't
have a 360, and I really just wanted a PS3, well then seeing that most
those games out for the 360 will be on the PS3 as well, I might just be
happy with a PS3 by itself and not feeling like I missed out on
something by not getting a 360.

So what, you're basing all this on the fact that 360 came out first!?
That's not as important as where we'll be in a couple years. Consoles
have cycles of 5-8 years, so comparing stuff like this, especially when
the PS3 isn't even out yet...

That doesn't mean I wasn't right. People with PC's are already going to
be able to play many 360 games on their PC. Not as many PS3 games. Yes,
it may make a differance to people with low end PC's and small
monitors, but there are plenty of people woth PC setups that equal or
are tapped into their home entertainment center's(i.e. Television and
Stereos).

It sounds like the 360 is the best choice for you, and that you're a
little biased of everything else because of it. Sounds like a fanboy to
me.

The Wii's motion technology I'll agree on, but how do you know that the
implentation of M's ideas are a poor copying job. Once again have you
played with a PS3? I would really like some insider scoop if you have.

I didn't like MGS2 either. But MGS1 is one of the best games ever. And
I've yet to see Kojima put out targeted game specs without them being
pretty close to reality. MGS4 will look good and probably play good. I
don't know if it will be good, but it's got potential.

You spent $500+ already on a toy, so don't act like Sony is doing
something SO outrageous by charging a couple hundred more for giving
you much more value for your money. Talk about a fanboy.

What, that they put out a good system with a lot of good games?
Everyone exaggerates their systems capabilities in the beginning. You
think the 360 is as powerful as you thought it would be? If so, then
you're more of a rabid fanboy then I thought.

That's nowhere near what PS3 will have in terms of Jap support. Nowhere
near. Maybe if the 360 demolishes the PS3 around the World, then you
might see a change. But until then, and with the way the 360 is selling
in Japan, it's not a very likely thing to happen.

Just like VHS dominated the first few years of DVD sales. Trust me, it
won't take as long as you think.
