I see all the people who own a XB360 are voting for it....fair enough. I'll put this question to you 360 fanboys: If i were to GIVE you the extra money it costs to buy a PS3, would you say no and still buy a 360?

Yes, I would still buy a 360, as the point I made in my post, I bought the 360 for the games, PS3 only had one exclusive game which interested me, which doesn't really seem worth it. It wasn't that I couldn't afford the PS3, it was that I would rather the 360

Fair enough, if you buy a 360 for a few games you want. But you're spending anywhere between $500-$600 just to play a few games? Sounds expensive to me. Buy for the games that will come out on a console in the future...anyway aren't most top selling games Xplatform? (not including halo, GoW)

It isn't just a few games I want to play, it is a few exclusive games, there are still lots cross-platform, but PS3 only had 1 exculsive game I wanted, and that I could see coming out in the future (im not one to buy something for hopeful releases). So a few exclusives beats 1 exclusive on PS3.

Exactly what i was getting to...You bought the XB360 for a few games you wanted at the time, without considering which system will prove a better platform for games in the future. I agree the PS3 6 months ago didn't have any where near as many exclusive games as the XB360, but the future seems brighter for the PS3 after watching wrap ups from E3.

I still haven't seen anything from PS3 which interests me Only that 1 exclusive title, the same as when I bought my 360 So I feel like Im a big winner out of it so far

I think with consoles the thing it comes down to is personal preference, and what you want out of the console. People can't tell you what to get, as no doubt you will have different tastes. Console arguments are always stupid
