ps3
why?
Built in blu-ray player
Built in rechargable batteries in the controllers
Built in wi-fi for internet and gaming
free online playing
awesome games with gorgeous graphics
good for storing any media you want: music, photos, videos, gaming, internet, anything!
all for $400 minimum
you can get all this on the xbox 360 but:
HD player $120
rechargable batteries for controllers $20
wireless network adapter $100
online gaming $50 a year
games are okay, but kind of fake
you can only listen to music and watch videos, you can only use photos as a background, cant browse the web and its a microsoft product!
console $200 (pro) plus all the other things the ps3 has built in will be a total of around $500 minimum!
with the ps3, you have everything in the box, and the xbox 360 you have to buy all those accessories to match up with the ps3, and imagine with taxes! also your local blockbuster should have blu-ray movies for rent so you can enjoy movies in hi-def for the same price of a regular movie, cant rent HD movies, so you have to buy them for a 360
glad i could help!
