did u bother to even read up on the specs of the 2 systems? their CPU's are extremely shitty. They cant even compete with old P4's let alone a amd 64. at the moment the only differences with speed between these two, will be who can code the most efficient code for which system. Also note, once multi threaded games come out (which wont be forawhile i know), the ps3 will be left in the dust. Till then, their performances will be almost identical.

you get what you pay for, i mean seriously for $300 does anyone really think thier getting the most powerful cpu in the world on either system?

pc's will always have the latest and best technology available for upgrading unlike consoles but just depends on how much you want to spend to play games. spend $300 and be stuck with this years generation of gaming engines for the next 5 years till ps4 comes out or spend more money in 3 years and play games twice as good on a pc. comes down to preferences.

Whoever develops/mass-produces an "upgradable console" will be in for the big bucks.

there have been many upgrades for consoles in the past and ALL did poorly...sega 32x for instance, simple addon that turned the genesis 16bit into 32bit with much more power...all the consoles that tried such things lost money big time. even the hard drive addon for ps2 flopped horribly, and it wasnt much of an upgade.

Regardless of which one is better on paper (technically wise) I will always prefer the PS3 because of its backwards compatability. That way I don't have to keep 3 consoles to play all my old games (and you have to admt games were way better when the graphics weren't the be all end all selling point) and Halo sucks so why would I want a XBox with Halo 3
I agree with you here 100%, and I need a new ps2 anyway cos mine is laying in about 20 bits with cracked circuit boards and all.

I will also get it on the fact that you can use blue-ray disks. Have you seen how much a blue ray player costs on its own anyway? well its ALOT.

Just think they can do more than one full game on a disk like back on the sega mega drive. Think about it you can get a discount cos u can purchase 5 games or more on 1 disk !!!!!!!!!
