I'm trying to get back into games, and the PS3 is on my to-buy list because it can also play Blu Ray DVDs. But I hear XBOX360 will soon be able to play that format and has more interesting games.

Any suggestions on which console to buy?

I was asking myself the same question .Then I remembered I wasn't a backstabbing @sshole .

Playstation 2 saw me through some tough times . Who can forget when me and CJ took San andreas ? Or when with the help of Kratos I became the god of war ? Or when I took down those jerk collosi ...? (

Playstation 3 for me .

I bought the xbox 360. After 5 months my first one broke down. The dreaded red ring of death appearing on the console. Im in Japan so I had a bunch of free credit from one of those mega electronic stores. Figured I would just get a new one for a hundred bucks instead of having my first one sent away to be fixed. 2 months later the second one broke down. Same hardware problem.

I was a schmuck. When Im back home in canada for vacation im picking up the ps3 for sure.

That being said the xbox does have a lot of region free games, which is good for us in asia. Is ps3 region free?

My friends xbox broke down round the same time, 5 months after purchase. Get a PS3. Every playstation I've ever had lasts a long time and they have good games.

From what I gather the 360 won't be playing Bluray discs at all, only HD-DVD.

This is our generation's BETA vs. VHS. The jury's still out on which format will triumph, but from recent releases, it seems the HD-DVD format seems to have a big head start.

I've had a 360 for over a year, with no problems whatsoever. It doesn't get any better than playing on Xbox Live. Sony may have a better stand-alone console on paper, but Microsoft has been on the leading edge of online console gaming for a while. The depth added by Xbox's well-established online gaming community surpasses any technological advantages the PS3 claims to have.

the xbox 360 will NEVER play blu-ray discs.

my 360 died after a few months (big surprise)

The PS3 is solid but right now has crappy games, but not for long

I was really disappointed about how few XBox games were playable on the new machine. I don't know about the retro-compatibility of the PS3 though.
