I just sold my Wii, good lord I couldn't stand that system. (I am NOT a Nintendo person, don't know what I was thinking...it was all the hype)

So...It's between an Xbox 360, a Playstation 3, or a laptop (I'm in on the Dell M1210 or a nice Sony Vaio)

I've been a Sony fan (not fanboy!) for a long time, the sleek black consoles really intrigue me. I've owned Playstation 1, Playstation 2, and Playstation Portable (still have). I am thinking the PS3 will be a nice addition to my love of Sony products. I really enjoy games like Gran Turismo and Socom, and I have a feeling that PS3's power will really boost multi-platform games like Assassin's Creed.

If I got a 360 or a PS3 I'd also get a new HDTV that I'd use for my PC as well (I use it for gaming such ass HalfLife2 mods, some WoW, and CS 1.6)

Tell me what you think, without it becoming a matter of sales figures between systems. I just want some good comparisons.

I may have a sandwich for lunch...or I may not...I don't know.

p.s. Way to bump your own thread. Just let natural selection take its course.

From a guy that used to have all 3 (see sig), get a 360. As of right now, if you get a PS3, you just be staring at it until good game start coming out this winter.

If you're a big GT and SOCOM fan, just know that making the transition to playing Forza 2 & GRAW on the 360 is an easy one.

I like what the 360 has to offer, but I really like the Gran Turismo series as well as PS2 games that I used to play, but got rid of once I sold the system.

I also want to see where things go with PSP connectivity, seeing as how I have that too.

Sounds like you would want a PS3 then although its skimping on games at the moment, maybe purchase one near the end of summer and then a flood of games should be on the way.
