Reframe that as you were actually RENTING the system until the price dropped.  I am sure you probably will get at least a month out.  Then say the price drops $25.  Well, you paid $25 for the ability to get a jumpstart on your gaming.  That would be a "rental" price.

Sony destroys the microsoft lineup so far. But MS still has to announce game. We know so many ps3 games because sony likes to announce 3 years or more in advance.

PS3 = Big name games
x360 = a halo duet, and some other no-name games that might be good, but I have little hope until more info is released.

Does playing Frecell and Flash games count as using your PC for games? 

The reality is that PC gaming is a crapshoot.  You buy and hope it works.  You get some interesting jack in the box surprises, like having EVERY expansion and Civ4 work, but Beyond the Sword not work, due to disk protection that calls for one to end up having to do a BIOS update to MAYBE have it work?  WTF?  Also, my laptop in no way can keep up with the graphics my 360 does, and it won't accept a graphic cards update.  And my tower PC, the 1.5 Ghz glory, fell behind.

And answer me why I to spend about twice what I need to, if not more, in order to get the same games I can run on my 360?

PC gaming has gone the way of the doodoo for me.  I am no mood now for running Mad Onion demos to get high rating scoring and HOPING if I buy a PC game, it will work.  The idea is to GAME, not WORK and hope.  And don't give me this look of, "Well if you weren't just a lazy person, and would take care of your PC, well you wouldn't have problems".  I have to say B.S to that.  There are things far more important to take esteem in, then what platform you play your games on.

LOL at potty humor.

To me the 360 lineup is "most impressive" and the PS3 lineup is just "impressive."

Also, buying a 360 would probably be cheaper, easier, and get you better quality/quantity than upgrading your PC

yes its impressive....PS3 is even impressive-er

another great year for the HD Consoles

event he wii line up this year looks good. (just good though unless Zelda is announced then its impressivest)

Not for me as a RPG gamer though, PS3 lineup only has Demon Soul and maybe FF13vs if it makes it and 15+ RPG's and some other huge world games like Alan Wake, KUF2 etc

So, 360 lineup for me is everything in 2009, PS3 is 1-2 games mainly

Well, having both is the best anyway, even though Demon Soul is not even close to my most wanted titles in 2009, why would i ever miss another RPG ? All RPG's are nice to play in the end

But for me as a RPG and adventure gamer, that likes huge games, and huge open worlds, the 360 lineup is about 10 times bigger and better 

Seriously out of all the ps3 360 exclusive list the only game the J man needs with a passion is Mass effect 2 , the rest can go suck it.

The only ps3 title the J man is interested in is KZ2 because it will be the first ps3 exclusive he purchases.

So as of right now the 360 has the better line up.

09 is going to be amazing¡¡ great line up for all consoles.

Yeah that's really impressive:

- DLC
- Fake exclusives (PC/360)
