Well the PS3 is the number 1 counsel in my house being that my XBOX 360 took a plunge into the red ring of death a few months ago.... tragic shame. Does anyone have the stats of how many 360's died in consumers homes in 2007 versus the death tolls of Playstation 3, 2, and even the Wii that year?

Your XBOX 360 is under warranty. Why not get it fixed?

For games you just can't beat it.

I agree with henning... FREE RROD repairs for 3 years after the purchase date.

Didn't get it fixed because I have had bad luck with repairs/warranty's. Long long frustrating story. Would pick up a new system (mayber the Elite, or the new systems with the HDMI motherboard buit in... Love the black style though) if Gears of War 2 would happen sometime soon. I have heard rumors Gears 2 could be coming out on PS3, and if so... wont bother buying another 360, or at least anytime soon?

Must be an Apple troll trying to put down Microsoft again. They disguise themselves very well - hate anything having to do with Microsoft's success. Probably doesn't even own one.

Hey Leon with the cool 69 attached to your member name. Cool guy. Anyway's, why would I ever put down microsoft? I mean give it up to Bill and his team for creating Vista and the Zune. What a success those have been since they came out. And I can really care less about Apple. I own a 30gb Ipod, and probably spend no more than 20 dollars a month on Itunes. Apple fan boy over here... not really.
