Why did this thread turn into comparing the 360 to the PS3?

OT: It's selling to the existing base who are upgrading, and there's still a lot of buzz surrounding the machine, so new gamers are jumping on board. The momentum has swung again, like on a pendulum, in the direction of the 360. With the remodel, Kinect and Halo pushing it.

Why are people buying the PS3? Both the 360 and PS3 look cool, offer sick games, and the only real difference between the two is blu-ray. Also Arcade 360's are $199, and HD gaming that cheap is pretty appealing.

It began with this. Mostly flamebait and off-topic.

Saying the 360 and PS3 look cool, offer sick games, and the only real difference is blu-ray is flamebait?

"Why are people buying the PS3"? - off-topic.

"The only real difference between the two is Blu-ray" - flamebait.

Now what exactly did the PS3 have to do with the thread? In that same breath, would it be OK to do something similar regarding the 360 in a PS3 thread?

Besides, he asked how the thread got so derailed. It began with that post.

I think you're overreacting. Calm down. It's pretty clear what his intention was.
