Isn't it sad that XBOX360 has to make a special and separate drive just to be HD compatable.
Furthermore, PS3 is fully backwards compatable, and it has only been out for 3 months or so.
XBOX360 has been out for over a year.

PLAYSTATION 3 WINS HANDS DOWN!!!!!

A more comparative match would be PS2 vs. XBOX360.

Anyways, XBOX360 is a joke.

Look guys, its a complete ****ing tool!

Have you even played a PS3? Tried playing your PS2 games on it? ****loads of them either don't work, or don't work properly. Also, 360 upscales Xbox games, PS2 games on PS3 actually tend to look worse, expecially if your on an HDTV, because it doesn't upscale them, and they look like complete ass.

It's very clear to us that you might own a ps3 and are very bitter. We can understand or at least try to put our self in your shoes. But the fact is that some pros that PS3 had over xbox360 are now cons, Xbox 360 now supports 1080p games and movies Lost planet is one. Blu-ray players are now under $400.00 and getting lower with much better features then the PS3. And as someone stated PS3 actually downscales ps2 games making them look worst which 360 makes old games look better. Besides why would anyone want next-gen system to play old games? to be honest in a few months we wont care.

Bottom line buddy, If you're an early adopter to the PS3... well it sux to be you and quite frankly the future looks pale in comparison to Xbox 360. As for us, we're loving Gears of war and we don't need to explain this one,I'm sure you and your ps3 friends already know this. Oh, one more thing, sh ity 1st post.

If I were you, I would also be angry as hell. After all that was a lot of money you invested in a system that has not earned its worth as yet. Don't blame the XBOX360 for Sony's failings, instead give credit for the good job MS is doing is acquiring good games for it's system.

And lets not forget that Dreamcast got the On-line game play on consoles the kick start that MS finished. Sony still has no clue as to what works in this area. Another obsticle Sony faces is MS deep pockets and the threat of Sony loyale developers crossing over. Like I always said, new tools new rules. But anyway I'm glad shenmu II is on the list.

Hey ,dude i don't know about you i bought the Xbox360 to play games not to watch movies. And the PS3 has a blu-ray dvd player, but there games suck. Xbox 360 games on the other hand are really ******* good. And if i wanted a bluray disc dvd player, well i would go out and buy a dvd player that played blu-ray dvds. :huh: :bang: :argue1:

Heeeey careful now with that stick!

Backwards compatability is a biggy for many, many gamers. Once in a while a game comes around that simply blasts brains apart with their brilliance. Heck, Doom 3 is a title i am still searching for to play again on my 360. Its an awesome ability, that broadens any videogame library significantly. Case in point: RPGs. You dont need super grafx, just an awesome system and interactivity. such as the FF series, or the DQ series on PS systems.

What's up with that??

Some games end up working due to similiarity in coding. Barbie had coding in common with one of the more popular games, like Unreal Tournament or something, which in turn ended up making the game very easy to convert to BC.

I was really pleased to see Jet Set Radio Future added to the list. That game had great style and music (though it lacked a little in gameplay).

Beyond Good and Evil is the only other game I'm hoping for. It was like Pokemon Snap minus the Pokemon plus engaging characters and storyline.
