yh i am pretty sure that if you bought one now that you will probably not get any problems also the games that will be releasing soon are awesome and are deffinatly worth getting a 360 for.

depends how long you want to wait. read this
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6148098.html
they are getting a new cpu but not till 2007. so if you are eager to play the 360 now then i'd suggest you buy it becasue 2007 is a long wait imo.

it also stated that the chip is cheaper to make so 360 will probaly be cheaper by then. also there is a rumor going around that 360 will be $100 cheaper by fall to tackle the ps3 lunch. i got that from gamespot as well.

I had high expectations when getting my 360....and they were met...I LOVE all my games (Condemned, Call of Duty 2, Top Spin 2 and Fight Night!!)
In my opinion, get the 360 now or the revolution later :D (I am serious...revolution is gonna be sweet :D)

IF i was u i would buy the 360 now, i have it and its def the best system out for now.Also it is out and u actually know what ur getting instead of waiting for something/ps3 that at this point is all specualtion when it comes to specifics.sony has an uphill battle being as the ps3 has already set them back clsoe to a billion dollars and its not even out. couple that with if they sell it for the specualted $399.99 they will be doing so at around a $400.00 loss per system which is insane seeing how MS was only losing $100.00 per system and people were worried about that.360 all the way

i agree with everyone else. i hate waiting. i like to get new things that's why i will be getting all 3. get 360 now and you won't be dissappointed. games like graw makes the system worthy. also if ps3 was to sell at 399.99 that's a huge loss for sony and they might go bankrupt ouch. why the hell would they need 50gb of data it's too much imo.

I'm might wait and get it when Halo 3 comes out,but right now the only game that looks good to me is Oblivion.The rest of the games I'm not real hyped up over.

I bought the Xbox 360 in the ending of January. If I were u I would probably wait for the PS3 to come out because it should come out in less than 5 months. If you are not interested in the PS3 you may consider still waiting so the price will be lower maybe $50-$100. Or you could buy both. I'm looking forward to Halo 3

ye u might as well get xbox 360 now, but its not all that. i am going to sell my xbox 360 straight away to get ps3, as i wasn't impressed too much by the media cabilities of the console otherwise graphics are quite nice.

well u might be dissapointed with the ps3 since everything it has in its media hub is directly taken from the 360/MS and it has been said that what MS did with the 360 as far as the OS it only comsumed about 4% of the memory for a lack of a better word and sony is using about 25% of the systems memory to do essentially the same thing.Give MS some credit they know about the whole media/online isssues far more than sony could ever being to...the 360 is a great system but its only in its early stages and its potential has not nearly been reached. in the end i think the 360 and the ps3 will fall short of peoples expectations in a HUGE way.People took to much to the next gen thing and i dont think its here yet. i love the 360 and we'll have to see about the ps3 but i dont think its worth the wait for essnetially the same thing just with the whole Blu-ray thing going on(which by the way will increase the price tag) and Blu-ray at this time wont do much for the gaming side of things cause the space is extraneous. think about htis...at this time both hd-dvd's and Blu-ray movies cost about $40

oh well, the ps3 in my opinion is still going to be better. the ps2 was more popular than the xbox 360. i mean the blu ray disks can hold upto 50gb approx, so they must have sum mad stuff on those disks to run on the ps3. more space, more stuff, more space for detailed graphics, more levels etc.
also the good thing is ps3 has built in wireless connection as well as bluetooth,also support for memory sticks! and i also hear they are planning sell it with a internet 60gb HDD. hopefully with no video restrictions which the xbox 360 had which caused huge dissapoinment!!!

Definitley just wait for the PS3. I have had every console out since Nintendo and you definitley dont want to get XBOX or the 360. You can find all of their games on Gamecube or PS2. And if your not a Halo fan then really dont get the XBOX 360.

Don't listen to what anyone tells you about you should buy this you should buy that blah blah blah
i don't care if u buy a 360 or a ps3, or a ps2 or an xbox. its not our decision on if u should get one or not, just do some research on the games and the systems themself's and determine based on what each one offers or will offer which one is better suited for you. and before someone complains saying i don't know what i'm talking about just bite it, i've had my fair share of consoles, and all has their good points and there bad. as for a ps3, i ain't going to go out and get on no waiting list or anything like that, the only game so far that i would want to play on ps3 is MGS4 and if they make a new Silent Hill game for it then that as well. but right not ps3 will have this and that is just smoke, non-exsistant, so lets wait till the damn thing is reasonably close to launch before you start quoting what's included in it. and besides there's no reason for a 50GB disc for a friggen game. it's called compression, MP4, DivX, MP3, AAC. etc etc with every step forward the better the compression and decompression gets.

i got an XBOX 360 for my birthday this year, they are extreamly cool. I'm looking forward to the video chat and halo 3. I've had a look at a picture of the back of the console and its basically just got 2 more USB ports than the 360 but who cares! I think sony are gunna take the mic out of the XBOX 360 and they are going to copy all the features the 360 has.
The longrun really is that the only difference each console has a different type of controller really. If I were you, dont wait for the crappy PS3 get the XBOX 360!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep Im delighted with my 360, If you want the best online play buy the 360 now. If you want the best offline play wait for the PS3
Either Oblivion on the 360 is amazing, SO GET A 360 u wont be dissapointed
:D
Plus Halo will always be better than any game the PS3 can offer, Huxley looks promising too

you know what bro, do whatever you feel like doing. we can't make you to get one and get dissappointed down the line. i personally like the 360 and other consoles, and i enjoy my 360 very much. if you like any games that are out right now or coming out in the future, then go ahead and buy one but then if you don't like any of them, you are just gonna waste your money. bottomline, do your research before buying expensive stuff like this.
