Years ago, I coudn't even think of buying an XBOX products and was waiting for the PS3 to come out. Then the price was announced (gloups), .... Couples of friends bought the XBOX360 and allowed me for a test drive. I found it amazing, but I wanted to wait for the PS3...then came the delay (re-gloups)... and I was so P*SSED by that, that I abandonned my anti-Microsoft philosophy to buy a 360 (it was the GRAW2 package + 360 PRO).
Aside from the terrible noise (...) and a ROD problem (fixed in a matter of 4 days so that is ok), I'm very pleased by the machine, and especially the online multiplayer experience. As an ex-PC-FANATIC, I appreciate that a lot of PC games are ported on the 360 with excellent quality (Orange Box, the Command and Conquer series ...).
As a hardcore player, I'm not saying I won't turned on the PS3 one day... but so far, there is nothing for me to justify that churn... And as said in this post, my ex-pc-flavor is a strong advantage to the 360. I'm pretty sure that this shameful start of SONY gave the advantage to Microsoft (The launching event in France and Belgium were pathetic ... ).
So YES !! My console is living up to expectations ! :)
Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.
