XBOX 360 or PS3

So it's an age old debate, and that's not what I'm looking for. I will be purchasing a new console soon and I'm trying to figure out which one.

XBOX360- Has more of an established base, and alot more games, atleast right now. It is also cheaper and easier to come by.

PS3- The "leading Edge", which is costlier but I think it has more potential once people figure out how to exploit it's capabilities. The PS3 doesn't have very many games, but I could play my PS2 games. ( If I'm going to do that, then why buy a PS3 ?)

That's as far as Ive got... either way let me hear your 2 cents.

360 has 6 CORES!!!!!

Have an Xbox360 and love it. Never been a fan of the Sony gaming consoles.

I have both. My Xbox is used almost daily. My PS3 is collecting dust and waiting until the distant day when a game worth playing might potentially come out for it. I dust it weekly. I flipped off the power switch in the back to save electricity. A spider has used the back end of it to secure its webbing between the television and the wall.

I liked Resistance: Fall of Man, but that's about the best the system has had to offer me so far.
I feel that the PS3 has taken such a beating in the market so far that it's going to be tough to get any further off the ground. If Assassin's Creed would come out I'd buy it. The next Final Fantasy is no longer exclusive.

If you want to play games now, Xbox, no question.

I laugh because it's true, and I know it firsthand.

Depends on what you want to do with the hard drive. There is plenty to download, and for me, Final Fantasy XI takes up a buttload of hard drive space. If you want movies and junk get the extra space, or if you've just got the cash.

I wouldn't know if it makes too much of a difference.

Do get an off-console battery charger. Very nice to have.

I'd vote 360, but I don't have either.

Hows the kid doing?

Somebody remembers me?..lol He's good. It's hard to believe he'll be three in November. But I guess that's life. Although I've gotta get into Barney or something. He does what I do: Builds little bombfires (hasn't lit one *YET*), loves fireworks, and loves to shoot my guns (paintball, Air Soft), he's a sweet kid. So I've got to slow down on corrupting him. He also likes the Air Force, so we now out number my wife. He's not going to like it when I leave for BMT, but in life you have to sacrifice.

360, because the PS3-only games are games I could not care less about.

I brought the 360. IMHO the PS3 is not only over priced, but doomed to go the way of the NEO GEO. FWIW my 360 died 6 weeks after I brought it. Microsoft had a new Xbox at my door a week latter, with a free month of Xobx live for my troubles. They won me over.         & nbsp;
