Umm... First of its harder to port a PS3 game to a 360 then it is to port a 360 title to the PS3... It was never stated to be a multi-platform title of any sort Sony never shows-off good stuff 6 months before their intitial launch. Alone that PS3 has many note worthy multimedia features. Joystiq opinionists are more favourable to the HD-DVD centric 360 (which is pretty much useless multimedia without a Media Center PC). Kojima stated that some of his inner software can't be replicated on any other system, he also said that he likes the PS3 better then anyother system for his products (So isn't paying a dime on MGS4), their concerning themselfs on Killzone which has a better storyline and potential then HALO (seriously a Stargate rip anyone?). That being said I'm not spending a dime on the PS3 I'll be here codelling my 360 (partially because I can't afford a better rig).
#9 By saying "SONY" you mean to say Sony and that you own a 360, and you obbsesed with you original XBOX. Its been repeated a multitude of times by forums and news sites alike that Blu-Ray is suppirior in terms of Software, support, content, price ETC. NEC (the other partner of the Blu-ray deal are also the people your not acknowledging) has also stated that they had everything.
The only advantage remaining is that they have a stripped down (more below then even the PS3's player capabilities), and that they are coming out earlier.
#18 & #19 David you should seriously try reading a book once in a while. Frame-Rates are determined by the systems capability to output it, not by the effects of the read speed (This just goes to show you that there stupid people on the net, that will misguide you with either hype or old rumours presented as facts).
1080p is an upscale for "DVDs" not the actual Blu-Ray format, plus in the future (starting the 2nd half of this year) when you'll have one of those cheap 1080p HDTVs at attractive prices you won't be crying that you don't have HDMI 1.3 (Lossless DTS-HD anyone?) and a player capable of playing those new HD 1080p movies of yours!
If you all may have noticed that "basic" service kicks the hell out of the Gold service offered by the 360, so the 360 fanboy should roll up in a corner with their mouths closed.
Get ready people to see how a succsesful system launches.
