    A PS3 or a 360?

    I've been pondering over which console I'd like to get my hands on in the near future. I prefer racing/car games over most other types. FPS games I prefer to do on the pc although I'm pretty sure I heard you can use any mouse/keyboard with a PS3 so maybe that's a winner right there.

    All my m8's have a 360 though and assure me I'd be better off getting one. However, Gran Turismo and the UFC game are the two that I want the most so atm the PS3 seems to have the edge. Only thing is, I've never played on a PS3 and when I seen a demo in Game for Sonic or something, the graphics looked terrible with jagged edges and whatnot.

    Opinions?

    for game selection and live i think the xbox is the better choice

    but for fancier hardware, bluray etc i think the ps3 is a good buy.

    although its games library is crap. And waiting on a select couple of releases seems daft when the xbox already has a great number of mint games.

    and gears of war 2 coming :D

    there are rumours that there is going to be a release of a bluray drive for the 360, although at the moment there's no solid evidence they're going to do so :)

    it has to be said, the catalogue for the 360 is far better than the PS3 :)

    worth getting the PS3 alone, although i havent got a PS or a 360 - the younger brother is going to get a PS3, so i'll be nicking it as soon as MGS comes out :D

    Agreed.

    Sony will eventually sort the network out..

    There is a new revision of the Xbox making its way out soon tho.. with a rumoured "quiet" DVD drive.. otherwise known as an inbuilt Blu-Ray Drive... Aparently..
