Also games with an install on the PS3 don't just load the same they load FASTER then the 360 version, so its a net improvement not just an unfortunate trade off. If MS didn't make the stupid move of having some consoles be hard drive less (which they didn't even do with the original Xbox, why would the new system have less features then the old system? Makes no sense).

If 360 devs could use the Hard Drive they would certainly want to, MS just requires that they don't since some 360 users don't have one (yet another innane MS rule). That goes right up there with making Activision pay more for wireless accessories so they have to have a wired guitar only, charging more for 2 or more DVD games so resolution is limited to what fits on one DVD and many other boneheaded decisions made at the top. Why isn't there a real browser of any sort in the 360? The PS3 has a ported version of the mobile browser (that even runs things like flash) and the Wii has Opera. Why isn't wireless built in like with every competitor? Why does the 360 gain functionality at a snails pace while the PS3 and Wii get cool new features and programs every few months?

Lazy incompetent design, thats why. Nintendo and Sony are vastly superior hardware designers and it shows this generation. I haven't heard any Wii or PS3 owners complaining about multiple console failures thats for sure (or of their system sounding like a jet engine when it runs).

Yes. This whole post in a nutshell is why I have a PSWii setup (PS3+Wii, just so we're clear), and why ive never wanted a 3fixme. I mean 360.
