Neither of the consoles has an interesting enough library for me to consider buying them at their current prices, the X360 barely has 10 games I am interested in, the PS3 probably double that, many of them the odd unique PSN games.
I have zero interest in their multimedia capabilities, and the fact they are HD means nothing to me considering I game on a 13" 'portable' CRT, and on occasion when I transport the console downstairs it's a 27" CRT... both are SD and neither will be replaced until they break. (For my bedroom one I think I would probably go up to 20".... the living room won't fit much bigger than what is currently there, if the screen goes right up to the edges then a 32" might fit (current TV has speakers either side of the screen) |
You must have better eyes than me, I recently came across a 13 inch TV and I felt as though I was watching TV through the wrong end of a pair of binoculars.

It's worse playing widescreen DVDs...the damn thing goes letterbox so there is about 1.5 inches cut off each of top and bottom (which in terms of diagonal size I think cuts it down to 11-12 inch)
I am less than 2 metres from the TV though, my bedroom is about 2.5m at it's widest point (it's an L-shaped room, the main bit is about 1.5*3m... with an alcove that is about 1*1m)
