I have all three consoles and only prefer the PS3 because it runs quieter than the 360. I know people have all this hooplah over a possible PS3 slim, but I'd really like to see a 360 slim that doesn't make the hellish noise my current 360 has always been making. It'd be enough to entice me to buy the console a second time. I have no idea if it will ever happen and haven't really heard Microsoft ever make mention about a possible slim-line to the 360, but that's something I would definitely like to see and hope Microsoft has plans for.

My PS3 use to be quiet and my 360 use to be loud, but after replacing my old 360 with a new one, my 360 is as quiet as a mouse and my PS3 has started to be louder than my old 360.

If you're trying to be ironic, this is genius.

This is certainly one of my reasons aswel. I don't want microsoft to gain monopoly on more aspects than they already have.

 

Another thing is the money to play games online. As a avid pc gamer for many years, (and not a player of monthly fee mmos) the mere suggestion that i'd have to pay twice for my internet annoys me. :p

 

If someone gave me a xbox 360 i would keep it. But i don't think i'd go out and buy one. Again i have a pc so i can play most 360 games anyways... And yes i can play them on my hdtv cause my pc is hooked up to it :p

About the price thing, it's like $3 a month.  If you can afford a $300 console, you can afford a $3 monthly charge.

For that $3 you get a pretty reliable and fast network that runs much better than the free one.

I'm not going to rant and nothig against you, I only happened to see you say it first, I just hate that excuse.

The 360 does have its problems (RRoD, no built in wi-fi, Arcade doesn't have optical out) as does every other console but it's a pretty good console if they'd take only take the fanboy blinders off.
