well i dont own one but i have seen one being played. it is absolutely sensational.(the game was Project Gotham Racing 3). if you can afford the $600 bucks (or something like that) i definately reccomend it  |

my mate has one and tell you the truth it was not as good as i thought it would be. games dont look or play much better than ps2 games, are a little better but not as good as u would think. i wouldnt get one especially as the ps3 is going to be so much better, so id wait for that.
just what i think. |

sorry but i fail to believe any "PS3 will be so much better" not saying it won't,m but it's people talking s**t saying that when they actually don't know if it will or won't.
as for the 360, also played one and graphics were sensational. as for paying 600 for a console! f**k THAT FOR A JOKE! |

| Ive got a 360, its the BOMB! really great, the only thing I can fault is the wirelss controllers are more of a gimic then they are worth so dont waste ur money there, but the games look and play sooooo good and 5.1 encoded sound sounds great! Ive played about 6 or so games on it, only own 2 tho, but very good platform. |

ive played one. machine looks thousand times better. i think the biggest jump in graphics is the 'subtle' things.....like the road/ crowd, background. the actual subject (ie car) i reckon looks almost the same as original xbox. but you get a better EXPERIENCE on the 360 because all the subtle things now look right.
as for the ps3, whether or not it a better machine is yet to be seen. as the xbox proved, its not necessarily what the machine is designed to do...its what it can do (with a little bit of tweaking) that makes it cool |

Well... One big thing that will differ between the two is that PS3 will come equipped with blu ray... Which is one of the major components which have put the PS3 on hold for a tad bit longer...
For those who have nfi on what blu ray is, its basically a format of a disc which allows it to store roughly around 25gig of data on it so it allow High definition movie etc etc... again much like the VHS and the other format (used in USA) there will be another 'war' between Blu ray and HD-DVD |
