So in the past few...days? Tom and I have been arguing about which system I should buy. Its between a 360 or the PS3. I know Tom has lots to say about this but I wanted to see what you guys think.

I'd like to share a story with you.
This story is about me.
Once, many years ago, I found myself in a difficult situation. I had the choice between attending one of two highschools. The one I was currently attending was working out just fine; I knew people, people knew me, I was doing well in school and even knew a bisexual girl. Yes, I was on top of the world. However, after a semester, I knew I had to make a change. The friends that I had for years were all at the other school, and I felt like I was completely disconnected from them. Not only this, but most people in the school had figured out that my father was a teacher, and they were beginning to take out their frustrations on me whenever he gave them a bad mark.
I knew something had to change, but the decision wasn't exactly as clear cut as one would think. For one, my parents really wanted me to stay at the highschool I was already at. I was also getting pretty connected; I had joined a number of clubs, and that bisexual I mentioned was getting pretty serious about me, if you know what I mean. Which I'm sure you do. Because I'm talking about sexual relations with a bisexual, and maybe another girl. That's pretty serious stuff. I think she had facial hair.
Anyways, the time came when I knew I would have to sever all ties, disappoint my parents and get the hell out. Somehow, I managed to summon the willpower to do just those things. It was tough, but it turned out for the best. I found a girlfriend, traveled all over the goddamn planet, and coasted my way through my education. If I have to leave you with a moral to this story - and I do - I want all three of you who are reading this to stand up for what you believe, and do what you think is right, even if everyone around you is telling you it's a bad idea.
Also, fuck the PS3. Fuck it right up it's asshole, because Final Fantasy will be out for the 360. Mark my words.

That's beautiful Anyway, I wouldn't know shit about all that new gaming stuff. I still play STARCRAFT for fucks sake. and suck at it. but I bet Tom is right because he's like the smartest guy in Canada, which isn't saying a lot, but still. but hey, aren't those Final Fantasy games turnbased? I HATE turnbased games

360. Cheaper, very large library of games (So it doesn't have MGS4, boo-fucking-hoo, the first one was the only good one anyway), fantastic online service, wonderful Marketplace you don't even have to pay to access (Silver membership FTW), and lots more. Like Dead Rising. Dead Rising was fucking incredible. Also, I bought two copies of Halo 3 because apparently one just wasn't enough. Seriously, get a 360.
[edit]
That story is very touching Tom. I'm going to go piss on the pizza buffet tomorrow and get a job at Starbucks. Also, I remember that whole thing about your dad and whatnot. Remember the interview we did for the Diary forum oh so long ago?

The 360 is not even that much cheaper now since Sony cut their prices again. Its like 350 bucks for one now and last week, the playstation sold more than the 360 did for once...scary eh?

Great news for Sony.
Too bad they still don't have any fucking titles coming out in the next year.

Easy now, we don't need that language in this thread. All that matters is RnC and FFXIII for now.

Wrong. All that matters is goddamn DEAD RISING.

Thats a game of the past. We need to move on to bigger and better things now

He raises a valid point, actually. The only thing that would make me want to buy a PS3 are the games that are coming out in four years. I bet those games will be awesome.

Well how about this: Assassin's Creed and Mass Effect are coming out in November and I can't decide which I want to buy or if I want to buy any of them because I just bought two goddamn copies of Halo 3.

Sell one copy of Halo 3 and get Assassin's Creed... then just give into buying Mass Effect. Thats the only solution to this problem and you know it.
The PS3 will have good titles coming out soon just you wait. Also, have you tried Portal yet?

Oh, I can afford both games easy, I just don't want to spend 120 again within the span of several days. As far as PS3 games go, this, and Little Big World (or whatever the fuck it was called) are the only ones I've seen that look interesting. What DOES the Ps3 have coming down the pipeline?

Tekken!! Umm FFXIII for sure...and RnC which comes out really soon if its not out already. Plus I wanted to try a few of the games out there already like Heavenly Sword and I still want to try Lair.
Also, we found out the 360 can't handle being moved to much since it likes to set of a selfdestruct mechanism! If only they designed it better, then Toms Halo3 would not be scratched. Im still leaning towards the PS3 because the 360 doesnt have games that appeal to me that much right now...
