[quote][i]Originally posted by Gavin[/i] The PS3 was released on March 23, 2007 in Europe whilst the 360 was released on December 2, 2005. That's a long time in the gaming world. Yes, I'd had the 3 lights of death. Yes, I felt gutted that it occurred after just a year and a half of owning the 360. HOWEVER, my 360 is used on a daily basis and has clocked up a shit load of gaming hours. If you bought a new car and drove 70k miles in a year and a half you'd expect to have more issues with it if you only drove 20k miles. My 360 was picked up by USP the next day... 7 days later it was delivery back all working - all free of charge I was a massive PS fan... had the PS1 and PS2 and loved them! I was planning on getting the PS3 around xmas 2006 but heard of the delay until March. I then popped out and bought a 360 after seeing Gears of War advertised on the box and I've never looked back. IMO, the PS3 took the wrong route and went all 'serious' by focusing on features outside of gaming i.e. HD kit. I feel as though my PS3 should be sitting next to my sky+ box waiting for me to splash out on a film on a HD disc just to justify the price tag on the PS3. The PS3 Dashboard is fecking slick and looks nice but again, its all just too 'serious' for me. The gaming market is all about 'FUN'. You just have to take a look at the sales figures for the wii and see this. £40 for xbox live. Yeah, ok... its a pain in the arse to have to get out your credit card to pay for subscription. However, most of us on here pay a subscription for CorsaSport. If you think the extras are worth it then you'll pay for it. If you think that your subscription is going toward improvements to the service then you'll pay it. Playstation was THE CONSOLE to have 3-4 years ago. If you was taking to mates about gaming, you'd be talking about the PS1 or the PS2. However, if you take about gaming now you talk about the Wii or the 360, the PS3 hardly gets a look in. IMO of course.... :thumbs: [/quote]
