the point was your personal opinions based on what you read (yes we dont all have labs!!), not just copy and paste something you've read.

Christ I can say I speak French, Spanish and Arabic, then just paste up some sentences....doesnt mean I understand what Im posting though

topshot you did say computer hardware was right up your street.

how can you give a personal opinion? ITS FACT that the PS3 has issues with its memory. Cell processors are massively powerful but my point is Sony hasnt carried out what should have been a superb console.

wasnt ment to.but a computer etc is only as good as the slowest part/component and if the PS3 has issues with its memory it will have a knock on effect on the consoles performance.

On screen, which is what counts, it looks no better than the 360 or a half decent PC. which IMO means its failing the job it was ment to do

How about having a NON biased discussion for once, so people can work out which console is better, for themselves?

impossible. Even having "Excluding Steve & Topshot" in the title doesn't keep the badgers from spurting mind numbingly dull drivel of how the 360 gives a better blowjob that the PS3

I wonder how long it'll be before we see the title in The Sun - "Pug owner from Northampton caught pants down with 360!"

i have a 360 and im very tempted to order a wii soon, and if the ps3 line up looks impressive and vastly different to the 360s then i might get one aswell.

i honestly dont know if i have the time to use all 3 often enough though

You've got some good arguments but make sure they are correct. The architecture of the cell is very interesting. We've had a few of them over to our labs talking about the various designs used. Definatly interesting stuff (well much more than the normal stuff at work)

Blue Ray vs HD DVD is a pointless arguement. They will probably both sell as many as eachother, someone will bring out a cheap DVD player that plays both, prices crash due to competition between the 2, consumer is the winner.

Nobody at all.

People buying the ps3 don't care, and the people who have 360's don't care deep down either.

doubt it? how can they "fail"? dvds are still the major market, but so were VHS when dvds first launched, now look at it
