Do you think that this console will be a good challenge to the XBOX 360?

It apparently looks bigger and stuff, so maybe sony will get the old XBOX comments about how it looks like a concrete paving flag

Will you be getting this or the XBOX 360?

The Xbox360 has more computing power than the playstation 3, but Playstation has always had allot more games than Xbox.

The Xbox360 will be released earlier than the PS3, but the PS3 will beat it in no time. The only part I hate about the Xbox is the controller I find it very annoying.

Check out these videos of the PS3:

wow, the graphics are pretty good in that !!!

Sure Playstation may have more games but X-Box games look a lot nicer adn in my opinion have better game play... I still say 360

[Visentinel]

shadowfox if your after better looks, a PC smashes any console in graphics and performance.

Maybe you should invest in a Gaming PC.

Nice find mate, yeah i think i like the PS3...though i do want the Xbox 360 more

[ShadowFox]

Maybe I should... hmm, what better time to start than now.

[Gazz]

the ps3 is gonna be the best of the two, the x-box looks better, but i think the ps3 will have more capibilities over the x-box360...we will jus have to wait and see.

[clarky3429]

i think they will both be good at different aspects, but i have always enjoyed xbox over ps, but then again, i enjoyed NES over x-box and ps2
