  • I'm going Xbox 360 myself. One of the Major reasons is that I don't like the look of the PS3. If I'm putting something under my TV then it has to look nice (to me anyway). The Xbox 360 wins on that account hands down.
  • True, Xenon looks miles better than the PS3. And I'm not so sure about the looks of Revolution, it just scares the hell out of me.

    Hehe, someone has been bitten by the propaganda bug.

    The sad truth here is Jesus, that neither of the two companies, ATI and nVidia, made the GPU chip from ground up. Both were based on the current development model of the next generation of GPU chips, G70 for nVidia and R500 family for ATI. Both of them are as "custom" as the chip need to be to be used in the console.

    So stop your fanboy drooling jibba jabba.
    Actually, that again, isn't true. The Xbox 360 chip was designed from the ground up for the console, and will later be used in PCs. It has some pretty unique architecture in it such as unified shader pipelines, plus the 10 mb daughter-die.

    The PC versions will not be seeing the same daughter-die.
  • I look at the PS3 and see my girlfriends make up box or something like that.

    I can't decide on the Revolutions looks. It looks like it's sinking into itself.
  • So i got the last 360 in town. Anyone wanna buy it? Core system with a wireless controller, memory card, and PGR3. I'm taking offers...
  • Put that sucker on eBay. You can make at the very least $100 profit on it, likely much more.
  • Aye i know, thats why i bought it. But i wanna turn it on and atleast have a go. And then i know i'll fall in love. Meh.

    Set a minimum...that way if it doesn't meet what you are wanting for it, you don't have to sell it.
  • Heard about stories of people selling Xenons for well over 1000€ and that was the core system. Fools pay fools price.
  • Yeah. They're going for 500+ for what i have now. I know financially it makes enormous sense to sell this one at huge profit, then just wait till theyre more readily available and buy another. But it is rather swish.
  • I'm tempted to wander down to a local store later and see if there's any in stock. If there is then I'll get it and pop it on eBay. Doubt there is one though.
  • I'am waiting for the PS3 and Gran Turismo 5 :-D
  • Aaah, Gran Turismo, propably the only good game for Playstations.
  • http://www.smashmyxbox.com/ :-D
  • I just wandered down to the local store. They didn't have any. There's my money scheme gone.

    Woe is me.

    heh giginger. fingers crossed...
  • Nice one. Good luck with that. I reckon it'll go for a good price.

    Amusingly, there was about 3 police cars and 2 riot vans outside PC World when I went there. I don't know what had happened as I was asked to "Move along please sir." and couldn't hear what had happened. I'm hoping it was Xbox 360 Raid or similar.
  • minisweeper: your action..?
  • Shit, that just took a big leap didn't it?
