question for the video game guys

[Bouncer]

They have to in order to compete. No Blue Ray and you have to pay $50 per month for online when it's free w/PS3...that's a big deal.

false.

How so...you can sell anything on ebay.

Just not worth it, I can't list that it has a mod chip. Ebay will remove the auction. It was a friends, he gave it to me about a year ago, I don't play it and never will again. I know it will be in good hands with Grinder.

It will be well taken care of. It will have fields to run in and friends to play with. :D

false.

How so?

How so?

well you had some rights and some wrongs in that sentence.

yes, PS3's online service is free and the 360's is not. BUT, would you rather have a ford escort for free or a BMW for $50 bucks? i personally would gladly pay the $50 for a far superior product. you cant even argue that fact, PS3's online service is crap compared to live on the 360.

the price drop was more geared towards getting under the price of the Wii ($199 360 arcade is now cheaper then the Wii). sure PS3 is a competitor to 360 but not as big a concern as the wii is. wii is the undisputed king right now and microsoft is trying to get a small piece of that pie.

blu-ray is great, i will admit it. i have blu-ray and love it. i dont have a ps3. i have a seperate blu-ray player. (sony BDP-S350). got it for $350 because i didnt want to pay extra for the PS3 when i really dont play games anymore. its a nice feature that the PS3 has blu ray but it really isnt something that is pushing more people to buy a PS3 over a 360.

just to be clear, i am talking from a non fanboy stand point. i dont have a 360 or a ps3 so i am not sticking up for one or the other. i got rid of my 360 because i just didn't want the damn thing anymore, so i am not much of a fan of it either. lol

Sorry after having experience with both I have to disagree(apart from the wii). 360's online is hardly that much better, PS3 has less games but better games, and as I said the Blu ray, media manager, and $600 savings a year with free online outweighs anything Xbox has to offer at the moment, imo.

BLM, its $50 a year...NOT A MONTH

i think its worth it. I have lots of fun with my 360

what the hell are you talking about. $600 saving a year? are you honestly telling me you think xbox live cost $600 a year?

[blm]

Oh shit, lol...yeah I thought it was $50/month....that's why I thought it was so outrageuous.
