None so far. The …
None so far. The PS3 right now is getting some great games. I have both systems too but I have way more games for my ps3 than xbox. Here’s hoping for a price cut this Christmas for the ps3, because if the price drops, more people buy and more developers start making games for it.

Good point the 360 not being quality is pretty extreme, I just haven’t had the best of luck with the 360, I’ll still play both but I think ill prefer playing the ps3.

I get this same problem with my 80GB EU model (2008) and a Samsung Series 6 “1080p” LCD TV, but in the form of noise and only occasionally.
Just switch the input source of the TV and then switch back or as an alternative you can also turn off the TV for a moment and then trun it back on.
So much for content protection… ;^p

You’re an idiot. A console has problems so it isn’t considered quality? I’d like to remind you of the laser reading error that plagued every PS2 until the slim was released. After several months of playing the laser would shift and wouldn’t read any disk. On top of that, Sony didn’t cover it in their warranty. Even with all that, the PS2 was an amazing system with the best gaming library of it’s time. Now I have a 360 and a PS3, and they’re both quality consoles.

I’ve had a xbox 360 for three years now and I got the red rings. Before the rings during my last year it would freeze often, and mint condition disk would be unreadable. I just ordered a PS3 last night and im waiting for it to ship. Should be here in about 3-5 days. I’m pumped!! ahaha About to tear that good up on a quality console 8 D
