but I can't decide between a PS3 or an X-Box 360.
and before anyone suggests it...screw the Wii.
Anywho.....whats the word on prices and games and what not. Whats the better choice?

360 is cheaper, the PS3 will have a longer lifecycle.
The games are on each console besides a select few... it depends on what type of game you want to play.
There ya go... that'll be t'ree fi'ty

get an xbox
and now the sensible breakdown lol
ps3 is the 'better' console
but the variety, prices and overall experience are a hundred times better on 360 so i'd say 360 all the way... more exclusives and more awesomness... pluss you get the gtaiv sequels exclusively... lost and damned just came out it should be finishe downloading for me when i get home for lunch
i have both but i never use the playstation really except for little big planet and also the only reason i have it is cos it was free with my phone contract

360 is cheaper... but like I said the PS3 will have the longer lifecycle... once I get the money I plan on getting a PS3 (Killzone 2 just looks TOO ****ing good to pass up)
Variety is about even.
Exclusive wise... as major AAA titles go, Gears 2, Halo 3(Wars/ODST), Fable II... PS3: Killzone 2, Little Big Planet, Prototype, Uncharted 2... so exclusive wise they're about even.
Both consoles have a steady flow of games coming out this year. And PSN is free... XBL costs and let me just say, the MS Points system is just gay.
To be honest they're about even...
BUT!
If you have a PS2 though... if you get the 60 Gig PS3, you can play all your PS2 and PSX games on it... so you dont have to throw out your old library of games.

uncharted blows... it's pretty... that is all... owning both consoles in question i'd still say xbox
as far as ps3 backwads compatibility goes.. just don't get rid of your ps2 lol
x... prototype is multiformat dude... also tekken and ff13 have both been announced as multi as well now.. developers are losing faith fast in ps3... it will definitly stand the test of time but both consoles will still be around for longer than any console before

I have both a Wii and a 360, and honestly, I would say get both instead of a PS3. I've found that the PS3 is not only a complete waste of time and money, but it's a ****ty waste of time and money. The games aren't as good as the 360. Yes, Little Big Planet and Resistance are great games...that's about it. The 360 has some amazing games, which more people know. If you asked someone what are the biggest games out right now, they'll say mostly 360 games.
Plus, almost all of us have X-Box Live and we can kick your ass then ;D

Funny thing... name 10 GOOD X-Box exclusive games...
The whole GTA IV Content Exclusive was just ass backwards retarded... Put the content on more consoles = more revenue...
More games are coming out on BOTH consoles, than exclusives... so you know... yeah.
*flamethrowers XBox Fanboys*
