The other differences are either non-existent or highly debatable. Now that the mutliplat games are basically equal between the two and the PS3 having more features, 360 really needs to be at least $100 less. Otherwise people with an HDTv are just not informed if they purchase a 360 over the PS3. Soon, they will have the same DLC and you get the Bluray player in the PS3. As for exclusives go, meh. I personally really only care for Nintendo's exclusives. I could buy 360's on the PC and think there are only a couple on the PS3 I would really like. God of War, MGS4, ... I am not too sure on the others. But yeah, I still think that once the 20gb models are gone, MS will drop the price to $299 for the 'new' premium model. Thus probably $199/$229 for the arcade and $379/$399 for the elite. This should happen before October. |
I agree with the bolded, but if MS doesn't decide to price cut and just focus on profitablity, the PS3 will catch up much faster than expected. So far, this year has been like a snowball effect for the PS3. If MS doesn't do anything to stop the momentum soon, it will be to little to late and MS won't be able to keep their promise to finish this gen ahead of the PS3 (might not be able to hold out in front by next year's E3)
