Xbox gets Blu-Ray

[Cossey]

GT5 will suck compared to Forza 2, and Forza 3. The physics SUCK.

yeah great job, this winter the system will have been out for 2 years, you still have no games, the "home" thing they have been working on still wont be out and your all crossing your fingers that maybe GT5 will be out then you will have 1 game to be proud of. Graphics arent everything. I played the GT5 prologue. Yes the Graphics are better than Forza2 but thats about the only thing that is better. I dont reeally care what microsoft does. Id rather have a system with some games and a large online following. Theres more people on xbox live than people that own Ps3s. Yeah I know its been out a year longer. Im going to hear that for the rest of my life so dont bother mentioning it.

Ok well the same can be said about the Xbox. The 360 has been out just about 3 years and they still can't make a reliable console. The Elite was supposed to fix all the hardware issues )plus some other stuff) but I know quite a few who have already had the RROD on Elites, some right out of the box.

Keep checking the nexgenwars website, PS3 is slowly gaining on the 360 and thats without any games. (according to you)

My opinion on this whole console war if Xbox wins is that MS is setting a VERY bad example and quite possibly, trend. If the 360 "wins" that sends the message that it is ok to rush a system to the market, whtether its ready or not, just so you can get a leg up in sales.

More credit should be given to the game developers for 360 and not MS and the actual 360 itself. Halo creators maybe the only reason 360 has such a devoted following. Forza is a good game, but not strong enough to keep people to the 360 only. The 360 itself is a complete piece of shit. I don't care how long the warranty is or how quick MS fixes them... they have way too many issues. People stick by them cause the exclusive games are that good.

I think the ps3 has way more potential. It's just going to take awhile for games to fully use everything the ps3 offers. 360 game drive is a dvd reader so the games max out at 9Gb (dual layer). Ps3 game drive is a blu-ray reader so the games max out at 50Gb (dual layer).

I would love to have both systems, but have don't have either . I will be buying the ps3 first though.

Ill probably just buy a PS3 and enjoy both in the future. Xbox Live is incredible, and all the sony guys just bash the fact thatyou have to pay for it. I agree thats shitty, in an ideal work you would have free online game play and only have to pay for the xbox live points to buy games, like the Wii.

On that note, I would also like to have enough money to buy both a Ferrari and a Lambo, hahahaha, and not have to debate which is better.

i like my xbox, but i'm pissed that I'm starting to rrod from overheating issues in my entertainment cabinet. Not permanent rrods, but I'm probably going to send it back for repair anyways...

I had to finally send my back for the RROD issue in March. I have had it for 1 1/2 years with not one issue other then noticing the increase in noise from the cd/dvd drive. Finally one day it happened, and wouldnt go away, so I sent it in. The cardboard coffin arrived in liek 2-3 days, then I got my xbox back exactly 3-4 weeks later. Luckily my brother doesnt play his xbox much and I live with the kid, so I just moved his into the living room and swapped out the HDD.

haha nice... i'll prob try to send mine out while we're in ireland
