Umm... It's not that much bigger =\.  And at least it'll have the fan in the right freaking spot, so it doesn't overheat and cause fires .  I think the PS3 looks pretty cool, in all 3 of it's colors: white, black, and silver.  I think I may get black though, just looks good   .  The PS3 is also more powerful than the 360, esepcially with it's Cell processor, but in turn, will cause it to be more expensive.  4.2 gHz and over.. Suck it Xbox =P.  It's games will look better, and it's fully backwards compatible, all the way back to the original PlayStation.  Again, suck it Xbox, which you HAVE to have a hard drive to play Xbox games, and only select ones are playable.  

[/rant] I feel better putting sense into the Microsoft-corrupted .

That is the biggest load of bullshit Ive ever read,you really dont understand too much about clock speeds on processors or the 360 do ya.

"Microsoft stop production you lost the console  battle as the Ps3 has 4.2 ghz lol,also which person placed the fans in the wrong place cos your sacked.

Dude both consoles have excellent specs and both consoles will have their rightful places and selling points in the market.There's good and bad about both.So how can you  slag the 360 off,when the Ps3 has not even been released.

How can I insult the 360?  Easy =P.


You HAVE to have a hard drive to play old Xbox games, which FORCES you to buy the more-expensive one pretty much.

Only certain Xbox titles are available on the 360.

The 360's fan was on the bottom of the console.  The freaking BOTTOM?  Seriously Microsoft, there's easier and cheaper, ways of starting fires.  

MS released 2 versions of the 360.  One with, and one without a hard drive, which could've made it tough for game developers to make games, whether or not to support the hard drive, since the 'lite' version didn't have one with it.

Answer

Are you saying that most people that buy the 360 will get rid of their normal xbox,I dont think so.And the more expensive one isnt really that much of bank breaker ,its cheaper to buy the premium in the long run.If you intend on going on Xbox live

Only certain Xbox titles are available on the 360.
Answer

At the moment theres a good choice of games and loads more coming out.Of course its limited at the mo,only because its new.

Answer
There's a pic of the fans,they've always been there,its the same setup as the original one ,its on the back .I do agree it could have better cooling,Ive sold loads and there's never been a problem.

Answer
Microsoft released 2 versions,and I agree with microsoft not everyone will play thier original games and not everyone wants to game online,its called a choice.
You mention it could have made it difficult for game developers,Well It Didnt

I think we understand you think the 360 sucks,But one thing is for sure you dont know what your talking about,because theirs millions of Xbox 360 owners having a fantastic gaming experience.And when anyone has a problem as you do from time to time ,Microsoft sorts it out with no fuss   end of
