I've been a Nintendo/Sony lad all my life (Gameboys-Colour, SP, Nintendo DS & PS1 & 2), and when making the leap to next gen, decided to get the cheaper Xbox 360 Elite instead of the PS3. Boy oh boy, did I make a mistake venturing into this mess of a console. It is the most unreliable console I've ever seen, bought, heard of, used. DO NOT be drawn in by the price. For a start the add-ons are ludicrously priced (wireless network adapter particularly), Xbox Live is good, but is not worth £30 a year. To set yourself online would cost around an extra £100. Now I'm far from a PS3 fan boy, but after today, when my Xbox has broken for the third time in 2 years, I'm looking towards Sony for my next console. My disc drive has broken today. I went onto Microsoft support. They told me to unfold a paperclip, and jiggle it about! Seriously, go and search it, it's all on their support website! It works, but only if the console is lieing down. I want mine standing up seeing as I payed £230 for it a few years ago.
I can see why the PS3 is the superior console. It has Blu-ray, and built-in browser, granted Xbox Live is better, but again, it's not worth the extra cost. And it's all very well saying XBL is better, but that's if your Xbox actually works. I urge you to consider a PS3, and if you do get an Xbox, at least get the newer model (even though it has a ridiculous 4GB of memory).
Worst console I've ever owned. Only thing the Xbox has over the PS3 is the controller, that's it.

very good fun had one for 3 years but it was starting too cost too much for live £40 (and a ps3 250gb for £220)-i just had to make the move(also wanted to use it for google and blueray)
all in all i would go for 360 (hay i might even get one again) |

| I never wanted to buy the XBOX 360 as I loved the Sony consoles. I was looking forward to buying the PS3 until my parents got me the XBOX 360 for my birthday!! I was fuming when I found out they got me this as I wanted a PS3! but then I started to play Halo and Left for dead and I have to say I LOVE IT! The system is excellent, I was amazed the way you can turn the consoles power on and off by pushing a button on the console (Yes I am easily pleased)!!! The system menu is easy to use, and I even designed my own little avatar!! I'm glad my parents bought me this!! Furthermore its a lot cheaper than the PS3 :) |

| What a great console, i have previously had a PS1 and a PS2 but i chose the x-box 360 mainly due to the price of the ps3 and what a decision! The graphics are excellent, unfortunately i have not played on a PS3 so i cant comment on comparisons in quality. The downsides to it are that it is quite heavy and there is quite a lot of background noise, but if you can get past both of these things a great buy. |
