Oops! Forgot about this one. Only half way through it so far but it is a great game. Even though the 360 can barely handle Bioshock and Mass Effect graphics.. . Nothing sucks worse than fighting a BigDaddy for the 10th time.. finally winning and the screen freezes for 15 seconds straight!

Plus it sounds like Mass Effects 2 will be comming to PS3 as well as the 360. Sounds like some software makers are starting to jump the exsclusive ship to make more money.

Mass Effect 2 coming to the PS3 is only a rumor; let's wait until an official announcement before we start adding to the PS3 side.

Software makers have being jumping exclusive ship to make more money for a while now.

It will stay just because they are using just about the full 50gb to put this game out. Any new MGS will not fit on 1 disc for XBox 360 so they would have to put it on dual disc's and as you should know Microcrap said a big fat NO to multi discs.

Sorry but that's also incorrect. Blue Dragon is 3 Disc and it's out already. It's being say that the up coming Lost Odyssey will be 4 Disc.

I apologize...I am going off of an article that said they would not do multi-disc anymore. They may have changed their mind now but I know I read it. There is a game that is comming out next year that would require 2 disc's for the XBox and M$ said NO. I will find it and post it.

Thats pretty sad to think it takes 4 discs when it could be on 1 BD...

But hey, MS is known for cheaping out so..what can you expect.

Sad to say, but (and I still have my first-gen 360 that I bought day 1) I think the 360 vs. PS3 is right in line with HD DVD vs. Blu-ray argument. The 360 was definitely an improvement over anything else out there at the time, but the PS3 simply blows it out of the water, and once the potential of the system begins to be realized, there will be no comparison. Feel free to swap 360 with HD DVD, and PS3 with Blu-ray, the argument works both ways...

It is unlikely that this will happen. Hideo Kojima is a major supporter of the Playstation brand, and Konami has gone on record to say that it WILL stay exclusive to the PS3. Since the game will be on a 50 gig 1080p disc, if it in fact did go to the 360, which I highly doubt, it will take up mulitiple discs just like Lost Odessy.(sp?) Sorry but I don't feel like having to change a disc when playing a game. That ended with the Playstation 1 for me.

If the PS3 came out with a game that needed more than 1 disc, it would probably be a gorgeous game, with an enough gameplay to last until rapture... For the 360 to need multiple discs is just more evidence of a glaring flaw in it's design.

No, what I was trying to say was that a game like Blue Dragon would have fit on one disc for the PS3. If something did come out for PS3 that needed more than one disc, I can only imagine how incredible it would be. What would you consider Folklore to be? What about Untold Legends? They may be action RPG's but are RPG's nonetheless. Could you imagine what a remake of Final Fantasy 7 would look like on a Bd-Rom disc? I'd be all over that in a heartbeat, probably the Final Fantasy I have ever played.

Default The 360 is not bad

That being said I went through 3 360s already and I've given up because I hate waiting for my console to arrive a few weeks later especially when I'm so engrossed in a game (Gears OF War) that is really damn good. I bought a PS3 right after and I'm loving every moment of it. If not for the PS3 then I wouldn't be enjoying HD movies so much.

Once the 360 has no more ISSUES then I may purchase one again but for now it's all PS3 and the games that are coming are much better than the 360's 2008 line-up. Of Course that is my own opinion.

Did your Bro get the 360 with HDMI and those Falcon chips inside? If he did then I may never buy a 360 again till 2009 when they are going to be really cheap.
