You can get a PC that destroys an X360 for under $1000, and it does more than just play games, it does thousands, if not millions of more things, so stfu, it' s asinine to even suggest that a console can come close to the greatness of a PC.

And btw you need HDTVs for PC too, unless you' re a loser that likes to play on 20" monitors. I have mine hooked up to a 37" HDTV in my room.

-60 gig PS3
-" Real" 1080p HDTV
-1080p tested HDMI

$1300-$1900

Or, on the opposite price end of the spectrum:

-Premium 360
-21inch UXGA (1600x1200) CRT
-360 VGA Cable

$525

Did I mention that the 21inch UXGA tube monitor has a marginally higher resolution than the best HDTV on the market???


If you absolutely MUST take advantage of the maximum standards on your PS3 home entertainment system (i.e. 1080P), I' m sure you would prefer the same on your 360.. :)

Then it gets more like this:

525$ Your price:
+ 300$ - 6 year Live subscription
+ 120$ - Wifi+Wireless controllerpack
+ 200$ - HD-DVD Drive
(oops.. now you too need HDMI-cable and better TV to take advantage of HD-DVD' s max resolution, that means + (1900$-600$=1200$, then we take away the 300$ your VGA-cable and TV-set for 360=900$))

1325-1925$ <= for your 360 with your prices..
And the PS3 owners still got plenty features, like SACD, Linux, and 40GB more then 360.. :P

The PS3 isn' t more expensive than 360, it just does more. :)

And its made of better quality material, unlike the trash x360s are made of.

Like the saying goes; you get what you pay for.

Yeah, with the PS3 you get a supercomputer. But a great gaming console? No! You need good games for that.

What gave you that idea?

Infact, I' m pretty sure that Sony studios is the ones who will show the most improvement in games, this generation.
They' ve been stuck on much weaker hardware than their competitors, for a while, and allways kept on delivering alot of quality titles, I' m pretty sure they will continue doing that. Alot of people underestimate the skill located in various SCEE, SCEA, SCEJ and their partners.
I' m pretty sure that you will continue to see some interesting new IP' s from them, as well as the old belowed ones. :)

I agree, but it has nothing to do with the power of the PS2 and how they where stuck whit it, its because the size of SCE Worldwide Studios, they are huge and alot bigger than say MS games Studios and NINTENDO developing group, its all about money this gen, whit the PS3 it all comes down to the amount of money u can invest since u havo to make several programs in a single game, as simple as that.

Hey Knong Rudi and evil man, have u played GTHD yet???, what kind of TV do u guys have???

I' m also sure they' ll make some truly awesome games, maybe even the best this new generation. But that won' t happen for a while. As I see it, the PS3 is nothing but future potential. Today I see nothing interesting in the PS3 so that' s why you' re not getting a great gaming console if you buy it in 2006 or 2007.
2008 on the other hand could be the big year for Sony.

Hasnt SCE only made two good games? ICO and SotC?

Now sequals to those would be great and nearly warrant a purchase of PS3, provided i get some money i didnt count on in March i might get it, just to play those kinda games when released!

Wow Quez you got a 6800, how long did you have to wait for that machine?

You should have a 7600 with 512Mb running on an AM2 with 2Gb of ram, with a 300Gb HDD and 160Gb external, price? Well lets just say less than a PS3 and more than a 360.

Oh and the res on a 34" HDTV is amazing however I prefer to be able to game on the PC in my own Space and running it on a 19" HD monitor still makes it look amazing.

Mind you my 360 on the same screen looks awesome too.

No, they arn' t.
But we can discuss that in a different thread than this, no point in taking this to far offtopic.

No dumb ass, you' ve just listed pointless shit that sony threw in their console to force you to buy it instead of having an option. For example HD DVD, Wifi, Wireless controller, and live subscriptions are not required. Instead of buying a video game console, you buy an over priced DVD player. PS3 is a piece of shit, we had this discussion months ago, sit down and shut up

Anything less than a 7900 GTX blows. I can' t decide whether i want to go Quadro SLI or with a 8800 GTX now though. At any rate, a 6800 is hardly worth bragging about, and i' d love to see a photo of your new HDTV Quez, y' know to compare it with my own LG...

I hope the PS3 is built better than this piece of crap. And the 360 IS a piece of crap.


Ah!! This is why im finding the 360 Visual output Slighty blurred and dull.

, you' d think it woud be decent but its just blurred as if its not sourced properly.. Every console ive played through VGA look MUCH sharper and brighter.. Dreamcasts VGA output Owns it. Even xbox 1' s VGA output gives out a cleaner look.
