[curtis9703]

ive been saving and trading games to gamestop and i have reached my 700$ goal.i have been holding out for a few days trying to decide between the 360 or ps3.i was close to getting a elite but just looking over the features for the elite and ps3 its not even close.another 100$ and i can have the best console on the market for some time.i have a hd tv so blue ray was a factor.yeah pointless thread but just had to brag...sony gamer days was a big selling point.


UPDATE
well i just returned from gamestop with my new sexy beast!funny it cost less than i thought cause you get some kind of tax free discount when using your edge card.it was about 620 with tax and all.did pick up the hd componet cables as well.had one problem though,i walked in said i want a ps3 and there were 3 employees and they all froze and said sorry with the lack of games and 3rd party support we can not reccomend you the ps3.get the 360 they said.wow all the gamestop bs stories ive read i thought were well bs,there not.i just told them to give me a ps3 its what i want and i was out the door. ill post comments on the machine later.

[Rynoboy]

Yah Have fun.
Did you remember to get a HDMI cord?

[C.T.E.]

Enjoy. I have both and I love 'em. Either way would have been a good choice.
Just get the system with the games you want, and if you are looking for a BD player then I guess you choice is all the more easier.

[MrFenwick]

Wonderful... Glad to have you with us.

Enjoy it, you won't be sorry.

I really think you'll be pleased with your PS3 purchase. At first it may seem to be a close contest, but after you realize how much the PS3 offers, I think you'll come to the realization that it was the best choice overall. Welcome to the family

[Dodgefate]

I would say Great move man I have both an I love my PS3 a lot more mainly cause I have had a lot of problems with my x360 an I still like it a lot but keeping this one (3rd one) in the box till Halo 3 comes out.

I am glade I got my ps3 mainly cause I love games an I am a Movie nut an LOVE the blu-ray player being built in an with all these firmware updates coming out soon I won't even need my PC. I will be able to do , watch , play , hear just about anything on it the web on the PS3 is ok but I have a feeling it will get fixed / changed for the better in future updates.

[IWAO]

Welcome to the family dude,and i can't wait till this happens with me man

[tbone8546]

you'll be glad in the near future you picked the ps3 over xbox 360!

[PS3World]

Hey great choice dude, you wont regret it that for sure. at least you wont have to worry about the 3 famous rings.

Happy days

[oas]

Good choice. I think the ps3 is the best choice in the long run. Atm it maybe look close, but all the stuff coming later this year will kick the 360 to the past.

[helhound]

I wonder how many people are doing or gonna do the same thought process and also with major games to come woooooweeeeeee

[Jared]

Hey great choice dude, you wont regret it that for sure. at least you wont have to worry about the 3 famous rings.

Happy days

That wouldn't be the "Lord of the Rings," would it?

[Mist]

Great choice, happy to have you on board!

[rukusa]

Like people said get the HDMI cable, youre really wont regret it .

[Stoffinator]

Now you'll know when you take that $$$ console home that it will work (knock on wood) and not have it fail you on.

[Jackpack]

It's good to see that SGD is affecting consumers decisions. For Sony at least.

Good choice, man. You'll love the system and all the features, especially when the fall rolls around with all the heavy hitters coming out.

[hired goon]

Like people said get the HDMI cable, youre really wont regret it .

Or a good pair of ps3 component cables, i got a pair of monster cables that put out 1080I and 720p and look great for 60$, oh and good choice not handing your money over to microsoft

[IWAO]

Once a time welcome,and it will be a nice thing,if you did tell us about who it feels to use the Playstation 3 all around,so let's here something tomorrow (For me at least)

[Doc Evils]

Welcome aboard to the real 'elite'.

[superJoel]

wow, I'm surprised there aren't any negative comments yet. I think you make a good choice and I hope you love it. It just keeps getting more awesome with the updates especially this most recent 1.80 with the DVD and PS2 upconversion software.

Kind of reminds me of when I got my ps3 at best buy and the lady totaling up all the costs tried to tell me some bs about the hard drives melting and stuff lol. She was just trying to sell me the 2 year warranty which costs an extra 200 dollars or so.

[saleenf5]

awsome lol wish i could have bought mine so i could see the employees face (mine was a random gift)
