The problem is that its making it harder and harder for people to see a true reason for a PS3. The 360 is getting most of the "huge" games alongside the PS3 and for probably a good majority, they see no reason to spend another $500-$600 on a console for one or 2 exclusives (unless its really worth it which is as said...becoming harder to do)

At some point I'll own a 360 again. PS3 is very very iffy. I just have no real reason to justify that much money on something the 360 provides most of anyways.

I see how you feel, but for me its the opposite. I'm having a hard time finding a true reaosn to want Xbox 360. It has a price advantage (which is killed in the fact that its a gamble if the hardware will work or not) and only one guaranteed good exclusive that I want. (Halo) $100-$200 difference is nothing for hardware, especially when the games are going for $60 a pop, that's 3-4 less games?

When Ps3 starts losing actual full blockbuster games to 360 (i.e. Nintendo losing FF series to Psx), then I might rethink.. but right now, based off of all the games in the forseeable future, I have the feeling that I'd simply enjoy Ps3 more.

Of course things can change with time, but that's just not enough to me. Just like all of Microsoft's E3 hype, in the end its all hype. "Maybe" 360 will get more of Ps3's current exclusives, but Ps3 WILL get what's planned for it for sure. Being a MGS whore, and a fan of RPGs in general.. I'm going to wait for facts instead of speculation.

Believe it or not, Sony has game development studios worldwide that make some very good games. Also, PS3 serves as a Blu-Ray player. If you dont like MGS4, FFXIII, Sony first party and Blu Ray, then obviously the system isnt for you, period. If that's the case, you shouldnt buy it for $100 let alone $500

That would be the perfect promo for people to buy a Ps3, except the last bit. If it was $100 I'd buy it for sure.
