PS3 or XBOX

That is the question?, i am leaning towards ps3 as you can go online and has blueray player, i'm guessing both of these would be best played on a high def tele, if so would have to stop mrs watching the soaps all the time. your thoughts please-

I'd be interested to hear peoples responses on this as well bud..my eldest son 9 is after a new console,1 minute its xbox the next ps3 then he's not even sure wheather he wants one for xmas or his birthday (in july)lol.

I would say PS3 m8.

what do you want to do with it their both good at different thing's ps3 is a great entertainment station with some quality title's but not as many or the xbox is where you get the arguably best online experience and ton's of releases each year having got both i prefer the ps3 as it's quieter and film's look and sound better on it and the graphic's are getting very good see uncharted 2 for that.

ps3 its free to play online

general opinion seems to be that xbox is best purely for games, but with the added functionality you get from ps3 well it just gives you more things you can do with it than just play games, so if ones other half is on the computer you or her even him if that way inclined could use it to go online if you just wanted to check out some thing on t interweb, i believe it is not as good as using a computer, but does the job.
do you mean normal dvd's play better on a ps3 or the blueray ones? obviously bluray should be better, never seen one.

oh yes it's about £40 for xbox?, spose this adds up, any thoughts on if they will charge in the future for ps3.

Ps3
xbox has the ring of death.

ps3 is a great console, i had it mainly because its free online play and you get a bonus Blueray player, the only thing that puts me off the xbox is horror stories of them going faulty.
everytime i use the ps3 it just gets better and better, i'm now into VidZone which is free online music videos i love the online play of Call Of Duty too even tho i am shi# at it and when i go online certain org'rs kick my ar@e

yeah i've found normal dvd's definitely look better on the ps3 and sound better the xbox can get a bit loud for movie's too oh and don't count too much on the ps3 browser it work's but it's not that quick usefull though if you just want too quickly look something up.
