alright so basically i am a deprived little boy and don't have a ps3 OR 360. i am really thinking of getting the 40GB ps3, it's $399. can some people give me the pros and cons of both, like people who have played them. not just 360 pwnz ps3 n00b. (yes i am expecting that answer now...)

anyways i am going to get one or the other coming up soon, and don't want to fuck up and get something i regret. ps3 is barely anymore money and seems to be the best buy...anyways all help is appreciated.









oh and i got 6969 posts today.

i say go ps3 the game lineup for it is amazing now but the thing that makes ps3 win is one game: resistance fall of man it's so sick and would probably be pretty cheap now. also now they fixed the bugs ps3's never break and 360's still do

Just remember that theres a 30% chance that ur 360 is going to have internal problems...mine got those 3 flashing red lights after minimal play.Its covered under warranty but its a minimum of 8 weeks untill u get it back

that was the old version, and that number is complete crap.  By my standards ps3 has a 100% failure rate (being that if its played non stop for 100 years it will eventually break).  You can't come up with a stat like that

True. I did however, have to send my ps3 in. I bought a 60 gig right before they switched to 40/80, before all the bugs were out. Once you take the time to call the company and get everything you need to get it ready to send in it takes like probably 2 weeks tops.

you can come up with statistics like that tard.

retailer estimated 30% failure rate, so squaretrade did an actual survey with results:
16% failure rate and only going to increase.
