    i have both. i like both just the same.

    i use the ps3 more cause online gaming is free. while it is better that it is free, it gives hackers a better chance, since if they get banned, they can just make a new account, but on the other hand, i didnt wanna pay for xbox live, so my xbox is for local playing only.

    as far as gaming options, the xbox right now has more games, better games, but like redgt said, it's reached its limit while the ps3 has not.

    forza 2 > gt5

    It really comes down to personal opinion. If I were you I would look at the games that are out, and coming out for both systems. Both sytems look great, so I don't think you have to worry about that. If you want to spend the extra money and get a ps3 you also get a blu-ray player and you can surf the web. However, some people already have laptops/BR players/etc..

    Yes i have. GT5P is nothing to get your panties wet over.

    Maybe when the real GT5 comes out it will be worth something. Oh and i've been playing GT since GT for PS1. GT4 also was another that wasn't that special.

    Agreed. That game is eye candy and nothing more. Boring and soulless. Forza 2 is by far the better racer. Hell, go play Midnight Club LA.

    I say PS3 for the Blu-Ray, the backwards compatibility (old version), and the DVD upscaler. Yes, even regular DVD's look better on the PS3. Don't believe me? Watch The Last Samurai on a DVD player then watch it on PS3. HUGE difference in quality.

    Also, the PS3's potential is really beginning to shine. I had a chance to play Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2 over the weekend. While Gears of War 2 is a fun game, Resistance 2 is BY FAR the much better looking game. The XBox fanboys are about to lose their game quality debate, and fast.

    dude its a gaming console if i wanted to surf the web i would buy a computer if i wanted to watch movies i'd buy a nice home theatre... its a GAMING CONSOLE.
    I find this argument funny coming from you since you say this here, but everywhere else you're all about the online features and little knick-knacks of the 360.

    i love features ... this is much like debateing cars... yes i love my heated seats and cup holders in my GTI but if you think i bought it for place for my coffee you are sadly mistaken the car was bought to be BOOSTED to hell and driven. much like my 360 purchased for gaming that's that it is mainly used for. i have a great home theatre already, 2 laptops, and a media server. i've played every console many times...

    most innovative + worst gaming = wii

    best looking = ps3

    best gaming + best price = 360

    library, funcionality, online gaming = far superior then how a game looks. if i wanted to play pretty games i would buy RPG

    ps. i still play TFS and CS (most shooter guys know whats up)

    I asked if you played GT5 NOT GT5 Prologue...so when you've played both games then you can comment on which is better. As of now, you haven't...

Granted it's called out that it is expanding on the GT5:P game but that was simply a tease of what is to come.

    Gran Turismo 5 (also known as GT5) is the fifth edition of the Gran Turismo series. Expanding on the Prologue version, it will be the first of the main numbered series to be released for the PlayStation 3. Gran Turismo 5's release date has been confirmed to be Christmas 2009 by SCEE Vice President James Armstrong in an interview with Spanish website El Financiero. He is quoted as saying

    "For next year, for southern Europe we are developing a new game thriller, in which the player may be designing their own history, and the new version of Gran Turismo, which will at Christmas."
    [7]

    It has been confirmed that the Top Gear test track will be featured in the game. It will also include damage, day and night cycles, and changing weather conditions. Aswell as an open airfield to test out your car and do your own road tests.

    I played Forza 2 for 2 months and never picked it up again.

    Now, I have played GT5 almost every day for the past year.

    I'll have to disagree with you on that one.
