2 w8 4 a PS3


Keyboards have all the letters within easy reaching distance, we' re not text messaging here!

1. Revolution - As soon as I possibly can
2. 360- Already have one, won it before launch
3. PS3- I just can' t see me putting the money down for it. It will suck because I like Final Fantasy games a lot, but I' ll make due.

Revolution - 43.9%
Xbox 360 - 1.7%

I hope to have all 3 of them eventually. I got the 360 already. The PS3 is all price dependent so if it comes out high, then I' ll probably wait it out awhile. The Revolution I will buy close to launch day, but Im not really orgasmic about it.

Quick question about HDTVs. Whats the difference between HD Ready and HD Built in? If I get an HD ready TV will I need to get somthing else in order to use my 360 in HD?
