to be honest, i would never have purchased a PS3 if there were a blu-ray attachment for the 360. I've had my PS3 since launch last year(Nov 22 if i remember correctly?), camped out 42 hrs for it and have YET to buy a game(or rent one except crappy Resistance) for it because IMO it does not have a game, but i do own a lot of Blu-ray movies. Now in my case it would have been a lot more cost efficient to buy a $200 blu-ray add on for my 360 than spend $600 on my new ps3, but that's the way electronics role and i'll just have to deal with that.

PS3 superior!?? Lol. Whatever. Worse games, worse marketting strategy, etc, etc. And the sales numbers reflect that.

I'd ONLY get a PS3 for Metal Gear and the Blu-ray ability. That's it. Hopefully my far superior Xbox 360 can have a Blu-ray attachment one day.

10.5 million PS3's sold so far. Yeah, what were they thinking, right? If I got an xbox 360 it would be so i could only play games because movies are at odds with the loud fan inside. How can you defend it when the power brick is outside of the unit and it still has thermal issues that require a loud cheap fan.

Plus, I can't wait to pay $15 dollars a month to play online against a bunch of twelve year olds that play halo three all day. And Halo3, what exactly is different besides the sub 720 rendering resolution.

Not trying to start a console fight on this thread, just tired of PS3 bashing saying its worse because its not what you use.

USB driven optical drive versus integrated ide/sata Blu-ray. PS3 advantage.
Not to mention 360 will not use any next gen optical drive for games(to do so would alienate any users without addons). They wanted as cheap as possible. Cross platform games are coming that 360 users have to download content for while the blu-ray already has it all on the disc.

When it comes down to it, PS3 is a better consumer electronic device. Nuff said.

PS3 overall is a superior machine. However if you're talking about games, then that only an opinion.

the ps3 is a better gaming system than the 360. the 360 has been out a year longer so obviously it has more games, but in this year we're going to see ps3 passing 360 in sales(at least in worldwide numbers). We're also gonna see some games that are better than anything that ever has or ever will come out on 360.

I don't think it's a bad idea, having a Blu-ray player add-on for the Xbox 360 would be a good thing for Blu-ray.
