My biggest gripe with the PS3 is the fact that the games I want wont be out till 2009... even a $100 price cut wont matter with the current library of games. Now if the 360 gets a $100 price drop that may raise an eyebrow or two... well maybe not until they iron out all the reliability issues. Id hate to go through what my friends went through with thier 360s. But ya the $100 price drop is nice but I think the biggest issue is lack of games. Sony's 1st party games just arent good imho.

Far better than the Wii lineup so far, and now includes many of the best 360 games. Of course, for me, I'm going to play Gears of War, Lost Planet, Bioshock, and a few others on the PC.

What games are coming out in 2009, though? FF13 and MGS4 should be out by 2008, so I'm curious what games you mean. GT5?

Thanks for your opinion, here is mine.  I personally don't want to play games I played a year ago (Oblivion), 3 years ago (Ninja Gaiden), average generic shooters (Resistance, Rainbow Six Vegas and this also falls under games I played a year ago), or a billion sports games (Fight Night, NBA, Tiger Woods, blah blah blah).  In fact, the only game that interests me at all is Motorstorm, and I lost interest in that when I found out there was no split screen (lol unsocial gamers).

Personally, I enjoy on the Wii:  Wii Sports (finally a change to the sports genre), Zelda: Twilight Princess, Resident Evil 4 (I played it 2 years ago, but I also didn't pay full price, lol Ninja Gaiden), and Super Paper Mario.  Obviously there aren't enough good Wii games out yet (4 that I care about), but from MY perspective, it's much better than the PS3 lineup.  Opinion is opinion, don't claim yours is fact.
