Everyone on this forums knows PS3 is better. Its a better system but theres no games and no one owns one. Of course thats because the 360 has been out longer.
Thats all fine and dandy that MS fixes the broken units for free, but it is such an inconvenience. My main issue is that MS still has issues with the Xbox's which basically means all that they are doing is putting band-aids on their units and then a new issue pops up and on goes another band aid. I don't expect a bunch of band aids on a console that I spent $400 on. (I don't care if the band aids are free)

I believe I have admitted in the past that the 360 has the greater game line up, I don't think thats a question at this stage. I disagree with you though that everyone on this board thinks the PS3 is the better system. Most xbox 360 owners seem to have a Holier than thou attitude.

This should all be settled in the next year or so once the flagshuip games start coming out. I am sure MGS4 will get a bunch of people on board as well. Either way, both systems are getting embarassed by the Wii in terms of sales and with the release of Smash Brothers this past weekend and Mario Kart coming out in April, its only gonna get worse.

All Ps3 owners also have that attitude. Whats it tell you when people know if they buy a 360, its probably going to break, and get fixed for free, or theyll have to buy a new one. Yet no one is jumping ship. Of course PS3 is the better system. However while owning the "inferior" system according to everyone on rspeed it is nice to be able to have games to play.

It really all boils down to what type of games that you like I guess. What will immediately make me buy a PS3 is the two new Final Fantasy installements. Xbox has NOTHING that can compete with those games in that genre.
