      Dirk - be ready for instant video game addiction.

      Symptoms include:
      - loss of time
      - finger blisters
      - high usage of sick days
      - beard growth
      - occassional screaming & throwing of objects at TV
      - when reached - Level 10 euphoria


      Both systems are awesome. PS3 might have a wider variety of games. The driving games are out of this world.

      It's kind of like Ford vs Chevy so Xbox for sure.

      I'd go PS3 for driving and Xbox360 for shoot em up/fighting games. Nobody can afford me having either.

      edit: xmas eve....I guess Santa doesn't like me working much. Xbox360 under the tree. It was nice knowing all of you.

      PS3 for the driving games, Pro street is way more fun on PS3 then 360 for some reason.

      I have both. Since my brothers and my xbox 360 gave us the red ring of death within two weeks of each other, I'd say go with the ps3. The graphics are better, AND it plays bluray movies. You have to buy a whole HDDVD add on for 175 to play hddvds on the xbox.

      I have both also. I have had more problems with my 360. It has been at the repair shop more than have played it. Go with the PS3 . Just my .02.

      Buy the xbox360 at Costo and return it with any problems. Xbox360 is not included in their 90 day return policy and therfore you can take it back whenever you may enconter problems. One game defines all systems - Halo 3. Driving? Forza2. Chek out gamespot.com for info on the best systems and games. Their rating system is outstanding. By the way, the whole blue-ray thing is directly related to Sony and will not play HDDVD's. Bring it beeoch!!!!

      I say 360. I have both and hardly play the PS3. I did have to send in my 360 because of the ring of death but they have supposidly fixed the cooling problem and mine has been good so far. If I had to choose again I would get the 360

      I LOVE the xBox 360 mostly because of Forza2 and I don't even own one! I just play it at all of my buddies homes!

      and just this last week they released even more cars over xBox live including the 2nd Gen Trans Am!!! I greatly prefer 360 over PS3, although I'd bet PS3 has more future game potential since its more recent technology.

      I also prefer the 360 controllers! they remind me of the somewhat forgotten SEGA Dreamcast which I still own! Although rarely if ever use.

      I've heard the XBox 360 is better then the PS3 myself from all the owners on Nastyz28
      who have them. My brother got a PS3 though. I haven't touched it much.

      Thing is, and I've owned a 360 for some time, mind you. The PS3 is a relative n00b in the game software market. They are simply porting games over to it right now. When the software companies start making games *for* the PS3, there will be NO comparing the two. The GPU is just that much better in the PS3. This is especially important for your desired games. Racing games are separated in respect to their awesomness by how good they look. The PS3 has gran truismo, IE the benchmark by which all racing simulation games are measured. Why just try to measure up? Why not have the real thing?

      I was really stoked on forza so I bought xbox, I may switch over to ps3 when the next gran turismo is released.

      Stopped at gsxrkens house to try out forza..wow.Just scratched the surface but lots of cool stuff there,the vette at laguna seca sounds so sick.

      The maple grove track is sweet, i think it was meant as a tribute to lime rock.

      I will buy a PS3 as soon as Gran Turismo and the new Grand Theft Auto come out.
