HD DVD was never integrated into the XBOX 360, ever.

Yeah I thought it would screw your eyes up too. I'm surprised the room is as tidy as it is actually.

I have an Xbox 360 Elite. My friend has a Playstation 3. Both consoles are superior in certain aspects. Before I get into that someone pointed out that the Xbox hard drive is smaller compared to the PS3 and there is no HDMI. The Elite comes with HDMI and HDMI Cable as well as a 120GB hard drive, now that isn't to say that everyone is going to go and buy an Elite however when you consider the PS3 you can get the hard drive in a wide range from 20-80GB. However as of July of 2007 Xbox 360 Premium consoles come with an HDMI port. So both consoles in retrospect have the same thing going for them however the Playstation 3 has a wider range of consoles available.
so they're essentially equal in terms of disk space and HDMI...

quote:
Features I like about the PS3 over the 360 is its backwards compatibility however I am not sure if I like their move into software emulation for PS/PS2 games I much prefer the game to be driven by hardware (less room for error in my opinion). The 360 does provide backwards compatibility however from my experience in order to play older games you need to download patches, what happens if the unit isn't online how would you then be able to play your original games?

and essentially equal ever since PS3 switched to software emulation...

quote:
I really like the idea of the Playstation 3's built-in battery into their controllers that you charge through USB. It will save money in the long run instead of having to purchase AA batteries for your 360 wireless controller.

you can charge xbox 360 controllers over USB if you buy the microsoft rechargable battery pack instead of using the double-A battery pack. so, not only does it give you the option of going all out and getting it, but it also lets you save money and avoid the extras. so, either they're equal or the 360 wins.

quote:
I find that loading time from the 360 is vastly faster then that of the PS3.
xbox 360 wins again... :p

Overall it is a tough call to make. (Don't get me wrong there are loads of features that I like with the 360). It depends on what you truly plan on doing with it once you have beaten the game. PS3 does have a blue ray player (but what is the sense if you don't have an HD tv?) Xbox has more game titles available.


you're right -- the PS3 does make a much better blu-ray player than the xbox. bbl, playing gears of war

I have both, I prefere Xbox 360 if I have to decide, though I like both.

Although I am on my third 360 in 2 years after 2 breaking down, but this third one is from the new batch of them that apparently don't have the same problems.
