I currently have a xbox and a ps2 and tbh i don't think there much much between them,now i notice a few of you have the xbox 360 and wondering if its worth getting one of these or waiting for the ps3 :?

I'll say this once.

Buy a 360 :thumb: If you would like a lengthy explanation, I'll be more than happy to oblige.

360 most definitely - you do need a HD tv to really appreciate it though.

360 mate, simple answer !!!!

PS3 wont be coming out till march, at a hideous price, launch titles will be lets face it..pants !! Plus the fight between Bluray and HDDVD hasnt been decided yet so not even a pro for it that way.

Plus the graphics resolutions will be the same on both (although ps3 has 1080p).

I wouldnt recommend buying a 'revision 1' launch console. Its best to wait for a year. A few times I have been on xbox live and people are complaining about launch 360 machines crashing etc, nobody has complained about ones bought after this date. In a year the ps3 will have dropped.

Plus interestingly enough an American guy was on COD3 the other night and said that he has played it on both and preferred the 360 !!!!

It'll take at least a year for good games to come out.

A few of us have 360s so you can play online against us.

But yeah I agree with Ben, an HD tv is a must !!! You can use a monitor though but you have to buy a separate cable.

I'm not saying that I definitely wont get a PS3 aswell, for a console gaming fix now the 360 is definitely the way to go !!
