Any gamers on here have any views.

With Gears of War plus the imminent arrival of Halo 3 and KOTOR III it has to be the 360 IMO.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

I work for a major retail company and can tell you the ps3 is going to retail at about £400 - £425
Xbox 360 is quality, gears of war is a bit of a dissapointment though we call it gears of poo at work!
Wii is going to be great, was at te launch party and you can tell its going to be a hit!

I own an xbox360 so I am biased.
The quality of current games for the xbox360 are really amazing, the online features add to the games.
I play Tiger woods 07, pro evo 6, call of duty 3 all online. So many more games I want!

If your future HD media format is a concern, then you might want to weigh up the war between HD-DVD and Blu-Ray, as the different consoles support different formats.

Well, I'd never buy an xbox, - too many sequels and a lack of anything original.
I'll probably buy a PS3 and Wii and import japanese titles, being able to speak and read japanese has its uses, you get games that are not just churned out crap with shinier graphics.

A lot is made of the price difference but the PS3 comes with bluray out the box while you'll have to pay extra for the hd-dvd drive on the xbox, so unless you've no interest watching hi-def movie you'll end up paying the same anyway. I'm going for the PS3 personally as I think in the long run they'll be able to squeeze more out the cell chip. Either way it's all good.

I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to mis-attribute this quote to Voltaire.

HD games on the Xbox are amazing graphics and the pic on a hd tv are worth the extra.

Gears of war is a bit of a dissapointment though we call it gears of poo at work!
Did it take just one person or the whole team to think up this name, seems as though some hidden talent just came to fruition |

to be honest, for anyone interested in quality, the whole bluray thing on the ps3 is a bit of a red herring. they told us the same thing when the ps2 came out (use your ps2 for watching dvd's, its the complete system). The reality was that the dvd playing capability was about the equivalent of a 20 asda special. i dont think it would be wise to base your gaming needs and wants on the basis of what movies it can play... |

Im not a gamer, in my younger days yes, lately though I have noticed different games which are so real, can anyone point in directions of which console to buy and which games, and also how real life are they, and is it still a joystick?
