    No sense buying a 360, they have a confirmed 15% failure rate (and some numbers suggest much larger), in large part due to the "RRoD" issues. PS3 on the other hand has a 0.02% failure rate.. This information has been documented by various sources.

    To put the above #'s into perspective, consider that the industry standard is around 3-5% failure rate.

    Keep the receipt for the short term. Long term you can send it back to microsoft. Im more of a XBOX guy due to better online play. I like competition and you cant get it like that on PS3 online. Why do you think they have the Madden Nation Tourny that's on ESPN on the 360? More and better players play the 360.

          My favorite game was Out of this world! You had to be the first to land safely on the surface of the Moon (or whatever planet) and then lift back up and catch the cone-shaped thingie at the top of the screen. Furious 2-player action.

              Microsoft cut corners in developing the 360, there's no doubt about that. That's just the type of arrogance one would expect from them, the hardware is junk, overheats badly, and is loud. It's no wonder the failure rates so high. Let's not forget the $200 add-on they previously wanted you to spend on the now bankrupt HD-DVD platform.

                  All true, but until PS3 catches up in the online world, I will be going against all logic for the 360. I even here PS3 is about to drop prices.
