I know, Pacman. I later mentioned that Madden08 and Cod4 are also on Ps3.

It is a violation of the warranty, of course. I probably won't do it unless I had to. BUT if I did it, it would eliminate the 3RLOD, and I would never have to send it to Microsoft... Gee.

Oh, I'd like to state that while I am an avid 360 player, achievements mean little to me. I don't start a game and look at the achievements and set a goal to get 1000/1000 or 1250/1250(Gears of War, Oblivion). BUT I will admit some achievements are fun, like the Terrorist hunt ones in Rainbow Six Vegas, I had a lot of fun helping people complete the all maps beaten achievement, because I knew the maps well enough to finish all terrorists off even if 3 of my teammates died. (T-Hunts are 4p, but possibly 8p in Vegas 2 in March)

I WILL admit that 'online' achievements ruin the multiplayer experience sometimes. For example, Mongoose Mowdown in Halo3... I played in a Free for all, and this guy was going nuts trying to get just one splatter with the goose on the Isolation map. Also, there is 'Achievement boosting' rooms if the game has online achievements. I guess everything has its pros and cons.
 
Dont forget the PS3 has a few advantages like the upgradeable HDD (Hard Disk Drive)...Full drive? Get a 3.5" SATA laptop HDD with 250GB of storage and swap it out without voiding warranty. Then you got BluRay disc capability. The PS3 will play these discs straight out of box unlike the 360's HD-DVD add on.

It's actually that PS3 use 2.5" HDD, same goes to laptop but desktop HDD use 3.5".

I've actually never heard anyone say that, but in a way, I do agree, it is next-gen, but in the sense of innovation, not system performance, but that is open to argument, lol. Games like Super Mario Galaxy show the Wii is capable of really good graphics.

The reason why it look great is because it's only 480p rather than 720p or 1080p making it easier to show off since it put less strain on the hardware.

Just saying.
 
I voted PS3 cuz i have a PS3 right now and love it. Playing online is free and downloads demo or others are absolutely free.
 
You can rent or buy xbox 360 to play for few days if you dislike. then take X360 to store for exchange PS3. thats simple.. NOT TOO HARD!

Good luck with your decision. ;)
 
I own all three of each consoles, including the PSP.

Playstation 3 is a great console with so much more than what you would need. cell processor and blu-ray drive is what makes the PS3 so awesome. Finally high time when Sony released a controller with rumble built in, the dual shock 3. This June,there will be 80gb bundle included with MGS4 and dual shock 3 for $500. To be honest with you, I wish I have waited cause of a bigger HDD but oh well. I own the 60GB which is still okay to me. I already own the dual shock 3 controller so its definetly great and works alot like the dual shock 2 expect the only difference about the controller is the trigger buttons. feels loose at first but will eventually get used to it. The PS3 is a great console, thou however, it would actually need online connection for firmware updates and such so will be alot easier for all the games and blu-ray movies to run thru and such.

Xbox360, is another great console, thou many consoles get fried due to the famous ring of death and of course I had that on my launch console as I am on my 2nd Xbox360 and I honestly hope I wont get that again. There are still alot of great games coming for Xbox360 such as Halo 3, Gears of War, Dead Rising, and so on. Xbox live is a great community for the online gaming but it cost money. If you can afford it, then thats pretty cool. You could get updates for games and such.

Wii, the most talked videogame console this generation. with motion sensing controls and great games like super mario galaxy, resident evil 4, and mario kart wii are the perfect examples of showing how its done on the Wii. However, the wii dont hold that much information and it lacks the HDD. It can still get firmware updates and such via the wi-fi connection. What's really annoying is the friends code numbers. Nintend should make this less complicated like making a screen name or something.

The wi-fi connection on the Wii isnt that great, but its still good for a start of Nintendo's future.

I cant really tell you which console would be best for you thou its based on your taste, the genre of games, and which one makes u feel the most comfortable.

So...good luck.

I would like to put the point on motion sensing control gave the great example as FPS such as Metroid 3.

Would you rather to allow adult search on screenname to realize someone who is underage such as... peach1995 as it can tell she is 13?

I'm fine with friends code as long as I can connect to any strange in worldwide on Mario Kart which rocks the world. I need less 3,000 point to go to make 10k point. damn dutch and gal from Japan, both are nearly 10k and killed me too much.
