    MS innovation at it's finest!

    4) Added in-home movie rental.

    People still "rent" movies? lol

    5) Got Final Fantasy XIII.

    The first RPG worth a sh*t on the 360?

    Basically, the only thing really worthy of mention here is that they get a version of FFXIII.

    boy i smell fan boy... atleast we get updates; they've had other drive options and considering they were 1 year ahead of competitors on release you can't really complain on obsolete considering the technology. i'm sure if roles were reversed 360 would of been released w/ 40+gb and more powerful processing power just like ps3. sh!t wii uses SD

    i love people still running the fan boy comments... PS3 has blu ray and thats the only reason to buy one if you want a console to play movies... wii honestly thats not a GAMERS gaming system - its a game cube with bling features.

    Exactly how many updates and revisions has the 360 seen since it's induction? Anything would have been nice, but the 360 users have been sitting with the same system for how long now? If paying for movie rentals with Microsoft credits instead of over the phone fits your fancy, then enjoy the Netflix feature.

    PS3 has Blu-Ray, backwards compatibility with older games (60GB & 80GB), free online play, and a ton of other features that I'm too lazy to mention.

    You can call me a fanboy all you want, but I've had both a 360 and a PS3. From what I've experienced, the PS3 is the better system by far and I am very glad I got a PS3 instead of another 360. Game developers now agree since titles will now be formatted for the PS3's superior capabilities then adjusted (downgraded) to the 360.

    I agree. It's sad how many people don't realize that the hardware is exactly the same, it just has new controllers. Then again, the interactive feature has made it a VERY fun system.

    xbox had backward compatibility w/ most of the games that are worth a sh!t http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/back...ygameslist.htm we've had hardware upgrades for a while 120gb and if you want to hack you can go as large as you would like - we have also had full network integration w/ your windows enviroment; i love being able to synch my laptop to my tv and rock out to tunes or watch free downloaded movies (ie. porn). though we pay for online play xbox has dominated the online console market since the release of Xbox live. And downgrading what? i'm sorry but though blu ray has 25+gb of space i in no fashion need to play a game that requires 10-20gb of cinetamatics - RPGs aren't my thing. if you like shooters 360 has it in the bag. Beyond anything 360 has always been cheaper and has been working a full year ahead of competitors on release.

    I am waiting to see Nintendo's stuff today. I have a Wii and a 360, but I don't really like the 360. I'm not about to spend the money on a PS3 either, there aren't any games that I'm interested in enough to warrant buying it.

    Also, I'm mad at Microsoft. They completely imitated Nintendo's ideas - "channels" and the entire avatar idea. The idiot presenting even said "What other system can you create an avatar on and play with it?"

    Just watched the PS3 conference. Its cool that mostly every media content they demoed is now available to the masses instead of having to wait. MAG looks insane along with Resistance 2. Also Grand turismo TV, thats just ingenious. Live coverage in HD of exclusive races, Top Gear, Best Motoring, and all the other shows there going to air. They also are bringing out a 80gb PS3 with all the dressings for 399.99. I have yet to purchase a next gen console but with Blu Ray beating out HD and all the future potential it has I think I'm sold on the PS3.
