To 360 or not to 360?
Hey guys, i'm new here, and I begin with a question .

Should i buy a 360, or should I keep my money for PS3's price to fall? Or just wait to buy some games for my PC? I'm a bit confused, so please, help me if you can

Well, what are you looking for in gaming? What do you like to play?

We probably won't be of much help if we have no clue what you like to play.

If you're more into rpg's than sports/ect..go with the PS3. Sony puts out alot more RPG's than Xbox. 360 is more of the sports/action/ect...

Most games are multiplatform nowadays/ You will be able to play sports games on both consoles. The PS3 will get the abundance of RPGs down the road, not much at this time though. 360 gets a few here and there. Action, both systems, maybe more so the 360, dunno.

I feel that the PS3 offers more variety. The titles that usually get all the attention on the 360 are shooters.

I'd agree with everyone else. If you're more into sports, go with the 360, especially since EA has Madden running at 60 FPS now.

The biggest release for the 360 was probably Halo 3, and there was some disappointment with that. PS3 will probably be better down the road, especially with Heavenly Sword and Confrontation being PS3 exclusives.

I disagree... I still contend that BioShock is a much better game than Halo 3... other than Halo 3 having multiplayer, BioShock was a much better game overall. Can't wait for a possible sequel...

Halo 3 is the most hyped 360 game out there...

And the biggest release..$170 million made from the first day sales and $300 million for the first week sales. Just because it's 360's biggest release doesn't mean that it is good, or that just because another game is good makes that game a bigger release..

Unless I'm totally mis-understanding the direction you went with what you said.
