Poor 360 gamers, Microsoft should take a leaf out Sony's book and not rush their console, not charge ridiculously high prices for add ons (HDD, play and charge kit etc.) and actually make a console that works!
Conclusion: Buy a PS3.
Sony do that too? Sony just forced you to pay the extra for someone you might not neednot charge ridiculously high prices for add ons (HDD, play and charge kit etc.)
My 360 works perfectly fine?and actually make a console that works!
What the hell is the point of this thread? :S You just thought "I'm bored, time to **** off the 360?"
Seriously..Grow up...
Anyway , the failure rate has lowered to 16.4%![]()
The 360 elite is the same price as the 40GB PS3, and the PS3 includes all the stuff that Microsoft make you pay more for...
PS3 can connect to pretty much any bluetooth enabled device such as a bluetooth keyboard, but if you want to chat on the 360, you gotta buy a official chat pad :rolleyes: Thats just one example.
Also, just because your 360 doesn't break doesn't mean they're all like that. Not even a 360 fanboy can deny the fact that 360's have **** reliability. Sure, yours may be okay, but some people are on their 8th 360 now, LOL!
PS3 > 360.
And yes, I was bored!![]()
People choose to buy chat pads. They don't just think. Hmm I need a chat pad to message someone! You can plug a keyboard into a USB slot and just type away. And PS3 has Blueray which is crap. Go away fan boy.
I know 360s are not great but just because some people have 360s that break it doesn't mean the console doesn't work, most of the 360s that I've known to break either use third party things (like the cooler fan) which is one cause and some just over play the consoleThe 360 elite is the same price as the 40GB PS3, and the PS3 includes all the stuff that Microsoft make you pay more for...

You do NOT have to use the messenger kit to chat to friends, you can use a standard USB keyboard if you want or just use the on screen keyboard
And the PS3 didn't start at £300, yea they've gone down now but that means nothing? Sony still FORCE you to have something you might not even need, whereas microsoft give you the option to have it or not, I'd rather pay £300 for a console with alot more better games and I can get the full use out of than something that has hardly any decent exclusives and has the blu-ray player I will NEVER need, if the HD-DVD drive was added to the 360 the base price would be even more but not everyone has HDTVs so having it seperate was a good move
Edit - As said above those things are OPTIONAL so you don't have to pay extra for stuff you'll never use, aswell as the 360 Elite having a much larger HD than the PS3, now looking at the 120Gb HD on it's own it's like £120 so it's only like £20 more than the standard premium 360 depending on what bundle you buy and where you buy it from

Although the Elite 360 has a 120gb HDD, the fact remains that you can pop any 2.5" SATA HDD into the PS3 and it works like a charm - no rip off first party crap.
£80 for a 250GB HDD from eBuyer, put it in the PS3 and volia, if you need it
Also, Blu-ray is not crap, it is the next gen format. HD-DVD is dead, most retailers and movie studios are dropping it and going Blu-ray exclusive. 360 owners who claim not to care about Blu-ray and say its crap are usually just jealous that PS3 games can be up to 5x bigger and better than 360 ones![]()
