Easy Keyboard and Mouse suck Buy a good PC gamepad. It's cheaper than a whole new console. (And if you must have the authentic XBLA experience, buy the X360 pad for Windows.)

I'd go with one of the Mad Catz 360 controllers. Just as good - maybe even better - layout, and a good sight cheaper on eBay. Sucks for games where you MUST have good differences between diagonals, and the analog triggers don't work very well for dial games like Time Soldiers and Ikari Warriors. Also, by the time the PS3 launches, we'll be that much closer to a 360 without the need for a power brick (i.e. the processors will be made on an even smaller core process, not sure how many nanometers it'll be, but it'll be smaller and need less power).

Same here. I don't plan on getting a PS3 until it's in the $150 several years from now (or one year from now depending on how well it sells). I was talking about the wii but yeah I won't get a PS3 until it's that much.........if I ever get one. 360 is getting all the good stuff/new IPs

And still I don't understand why people buy a console to play PC games? upgrading your PC is way cheaper than buying a 360 (and you get the XBLA for free! No need to pay for roms of Contra and Gauntlet). Because I don't like playing games on a PC. Even before I got a job that required me sitting in front of a computer eight hours a day (and this doesn't include the various writing/webwork I do on my own time), playing games with a controller, sitting on a nice couch or recliner on a nice big TV is MUCH preferable to sitting in an office chair, using a mouse and keyboard, focused on a 17 inch monitor. Plus you don't need to worry about most of the technical headaches involved in PC games. I think the question is, why play PC games when you can play them on the 360? Outside of the advantages of the mouse/keyboard in certain genres, there really aren't any. And Lost Planet? I completely forgot about it. The demo was awesome. Sucks the game is so far away.

*scratches* The more Sony reps try to say something, the further down they shove their feet down their mouths. At this point they should just shut the hell up and let the consumers discover all the unpleasant surprises for themselves.
...You know the way any self-respecting business would.

The only reason I buy consoles and games on those consoles is exclusives, I really like Dead Rising and it's not avaliable on anything but 360 atm so my choice is buy it all or not play it. It sucks but those are my choices.

That's all down to opinion right? I think it may be a tad silly to say it will have no decent exclusive games, I am confident there will be one or two- just like there is with almost every machine.
