Except that post presented the opinions of a friend and specifically requested PS3 information to balance out my own biased opinion in advising her...

That household will now have a PS3 in the next two months...

The fail is strong with this one.

But it's the same thing.

X console or Y console.

Obvious bias, etc. etc. 

Whether or not the house will have a PS3 or not is irrelevant, it's the same exact concept. 

There is no fail in that one.

Do you enjoy home console RPG? If so then get the xbox, it has a plethora of already out and coming soon RPG, not all are good but most are at least enjoyable.

Otherwise get the PSP.

Despite the similar price point the XBOX will still cost you more money if you want to make the most out of it Live , accesories , hard drive etc. Depends on what your gaming needs are if you mostly at home then the 360 is for you if not then get yourself a PSP.

No, it is not the same thing.

Gazz:

- Buying for himself.

- Year of trolling against the Xbox 360.

- OP highly biased towards PSP.

- Outcome pre-determined.

Starcraft:

- Buying for another.

- Specifically seeking balance to the bias.

- OP balanced.

- Outcome in favour of my least favoured console.

DMeisterJ:

- Fail.

Handheld vs console it all depends on YOUR taste. Do you go on the road a lot? Or do you use most of your time to relax at home?

Neither.. PSP if anything. If you have a PC and a PS3 their really isn't much that you'd be missing on Xbox. If I were you i'd just go get a shit load of games.

If Gears 2, Fable 2, Left 4 Dead, or Banjo Kazooie N&B arn't must plays for you than hopefully you know the answer.

if you have a gaming PC ,360 is redundant and less reliable,,,so PSP 3000 would be my pick.

lol Starcraft

You're clearly delusional, and not making any sense... lol.

This thread is exactly the same.

Get them both! But yeh, you sound like you want that PSP more. Least if you get a 60gb xbox now, you know the chances of it failing on you are alot lower.
