The new 360 console is only a rumour at the minute, though there has been pics of one with hdmi but according to MS its something theyre toying around with and have no plans to bring it to market. More than likely the tune will change a few months down the line.


For my ps3 though i got fucked over with that HDCP bullshit (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) and a hdmi to dvi connector refused to work with my monitor as it wasn't HDCP ready... rolleyes:

Ended up having to buy one of these:

Lets me connect component cables and have it output as a VGA signal, have my 360 connected to it as well so its just a matter of pressing a button to flick between the 2 signals. Have to use optical out audio as the regular white and red connectors have a habit of making the image blur somehow.

Resistance looks ok, on the tv downstairs i thought it looked rough around the edges but here its pretty smooth looking. Enemies are really dumb where grenades are concerned though, don't even atempt to run away from them.

Now i just need a 1080p capable lcd tv happy:

so in short, you're saying 360?

get a 360 Xbox live alone is worth it. Graphics are great and the controller is comfortable.


Also i never heard about a new 360, plus yu can always buy a bigger HD when Microsoft releases it.

Suppose like everything else both consoles have exclusive franchises that can sway the buyer in either direction. Better to get the console that has the franchises you like.


Some people will buy a ps3 for the new metal gear, saying that though i can't see it being a ps3 exclusive for any amount of time, given the fact that some stores in japan have had to cut around 20% off ps3's to get them shifted. Mgs4 apparently has a pretty large budget and konami would be pretty stupid to release the game on just one platform and risk low revenue.

Right now 360 due to game selection...

really in the end depends on what games you want...

MGS 4 and FFXIII will be the best games ever and will be on PS3

I say wait a year and see...if not buy a 360 then sell it for a ps3 if their game selection lives up to the last generations.
