I was one of the stupid people who dumped the 35.00 for the GT5 Demo last year. I played it for about 2 days then after not being able to play online with my friends or even talk to the people I am racing against I said screw it and went back to Forza 2. I totally gave up on GT5 and pretty much any PS3 game after that. The PS3 does have a BR player but you can get a stand alone BR player for 119.00 now brand new. My 1st PS3 ( 20 gig) I bought brand new back in 06 and it broke 100 days after I got it. PS gave a 90 day warrenty and when I called them they pretty much told me to suck it up and buy a new one.

The Xbox has a huge selection of both original Xbox games and 360 games that the system can play. It has a better online with fast and easy updates, more online activities, and is more user friendly. The downside is you have to pay 50.00 a year to use it but the upside is that with that money you can see why XBL is better. It doesnt come with a BR player but I have the little HD DVD drive for mine and you can find HD DVDs brand new for less then 1.00 on ebay. The quality is the same as a BR and there are like 300 titles out there for the HD DVD. Hell I picked up my HD DVD drive for 50.00 and it came with 10 hd dvd movies.

I have a 40gig PS3 and a Elite. We play the xbox all the time. Its on 6hrs a day usually. The PS3 we use for Netflix BR movies. Its on maybe 4-8 hrs a week. I went from a PS2 to a 360 and was very satisfied. I was a die hard PS fan but now I like the 360 way better then my PS3 or PS2.
