Skinsfan, what's up with NCAA and Madden being scaled back? I hadn't heard about that?

the PS3 is 30 frames per second the 360 is 60.

I use my PS3 for sports games, 360 for shooter games and shit like that, and the Wii for family games like Mario Party and the new Super Smash brothers when it comes out.

Well I assume you will be going with the 360 Madden this year no?

Somebody let me know when the price of the PS3 drops to about 150-200.

My younger bro had a 20GB one. Now he bought a 60GB one but If he wants to sell you the other one I might be able to get it for you for like 250 dollars.

Phuc No! If and when I want one bad enough I will break down and buy it. I just cant see paying that kind of money for a video game console unless I can get a special Japanese massage to go with it anytime I turn it on.

I think the 3 break down as such:

Current/Near Future Next-Gen games= 360 is the leader by almost a 3-1 margin to both the PS3 and the Wii.

Backwards Compatibility= easily the PS3 with thousands of games to choose from, but also a nod for the Wii with all of the GC games working. this is one area that really really hurts the 360 in some people's eyes.

Graphics= right now it's 360 with a higher detail in textures, better anti-aliasing(sp?), and a full extra year's hands-on from the developers, but in about a year or 2 the developers will catch up to the horsepower and complexity of the PS3 and it'll be very nice.

Fun Factor= hands down the Wii because each game feels a little different because of the interactive controls.

Online= this for me is the huge deciding factor because before getting my 360 I had never played anything online and it's just a completely huge aspect of gaming that I'd been missing out on in my eyes. Xbox live, though it has fees, is much better set up with a lot less lag issues and more importantly a whole lot less cheating unlike the hugely cheap socom online. and the wii's online right now is pretty much non-existent

Media options= this is a tie for me because Blu-Ray is phenomal if you have a nice tv, but so is the option to have music I've ripped onto my 360 harddrive to play in the background of the game and not lose any of the sound effects or voice overs from the characters in said game which has been around since the original xbox so I don't know why it's still not there for the PS3.

each system has its strengths and weaknesses, so it just comes down to figuring out which +/- mean more to you BSB.

See I dont play all of those. Just halo off that list.

I'm really impressed with XBOX Live. I used to think why would I want to pay for something I can get for free with Sony, but it's definitely worth it and then some. If you like online gaming, Live is the only way to go right now.

You're right about socom and the cheating. I love the game but the cheating is so out of control it totally ruins it.

By the way, Sony just announced a price cut.
