"X-Box360 vs PS3 (who will win)"

My personal thought-X-Box 360.Post yours.

Depends on how much they want to play next-gen games ASAP.

It'll be close, but because of all the Sony fanboys, I think the PS3 will jism all over the 360 and again to the Revolution, possible even getting some in its eyes.




hypothetically

I think there is some really big game show thing happening in Tokyo tommorow and Nintendo are expected to reveal alot there, hopefully the controller too.

Number 3 on the list.

There's going to be some crisp graphics coming out of that thing.


"Ten programmes and RE" - Sounds like a good launch deal too.

Have they actually announced the specs etc of the revolution yet?

LOOK. Shut up everybody, the Revolution will win.


[S]hahahahaha...

I'm definatly buying the PS3. Personally I feel the Blu-Ray idea is fantastic. If you HAD to buy Blu-Ray films, I'd be bummed, but seeing as the PS3 will support DVD's and CD's AS WELL, I think the argument "People will have to re-buy their DVD collection" is completely irrelevant.

In terms of Technical specs, PS3 seems to have the edge. And in terms of sales, I think PS3 will rise to the top again, but It will be a closer fought battle than PS2 Vs. X-box.

I also don't mind the extra cost for the PS3. Although I like cheap games/consoles, I feel more confident of getting a reliable product. Also, I think the X-BOX 360 may actually be setting its price too low! I believe the PS1 AND PS2 debuted at £300. Setting a starter price of just over £200 seems to me like a desperate attempt to boost sales with an inferior product.

This is the only article worth taking authorative comments from about the hardware profiles of the consoles.

I'm still loving the PS3 is superior to the 360 comments.

The PS3 has one general purpose core and 7 support cores, th 360 has 3 general purpose cores each capable of processing two threads at once.

Neither supports out of order instruction execution or branch prediction so until someone can take them apart and benchmark them no one can know which CPU is superior, not even IBM who is making them both.....

Then go away and don't comment.
