I’d say, Xbox. unless you think you’re going to want Blu-Ray.
Then again, the xbox catalog is primarily shooters (although, there is some cracking JRPG’s abound), and you’d get a shot at the old CoC game from the last xbox.
If you get an XBox360 I will get you some games from my friend who works for XBox @ M$ in Seattle.
XBox 360, and make sure you get one with a hard drive — there’s a cheap ($199) version without one.
xbox 360 is considerably cheaper at the moment. plus it has a lot more games. that is what is making my decision at the moment.
Xbox is cheaper (for a reason! 🙂 ) but PS3 is a solid Blu-Ray machine. Of course, if you don’t have an HD TV, Blu-Ray is not an essential. Just watched the Blu-Ray Nightmare Before Christmas and it was like seeing for the first again. Amazing.
p.s. I made Toren ask this question.
I am tempted by the free games but I find shooters, for the most part, no fun. Perhaps it is because I hate Halo (don’t tell the nerds!). I have an Xbox and wasn’t super stoked on the selection of games.
I don’t have an HD TV but I like the slippery slope of nerdom where buying one item means you have to buy several others in order to full appreciate the initial item.
Whichever is going to have “Brutal Legend.”
