One thing I'll admitt is that I've never stood in line for any game or system....not yet anyway.

I know I won't ever do this. The first versions of any new high end gaming system have bugs which eventually get worked out in later versions. The Xbox 360 was a prime example of this.

Personally I think the PS3 is overrated. The fact that it is more of a computer than a console doesn't help things either. People buy gaming consoles because they do not want to deal with the hassles of tweaking a gaming computer to work with a particular game. They also do not want the hassles of customizing or upgrading said systems either.

I believe this too, as I remember the many problems that were reported when the unit first arrived. I actually won mine, (cost to me: $0) in a contest at work last September and I've had no problems with it at all.

Now that I disagree with. I also own an Alienware Area 51 computer wich I'm about to upgrade with more memory and a new video card, (Nvidia 800 series) and computer games are the overall best in my opinion.However some good games, (Halo 2, Black, Gears of War, and Halo 3) won't be offered on the PC until a long time to come.

Lately I've been bouncing back and forth between Gears of War Xbox and Fear Extraction Point PC.

Don't equate the "windows" computer paradigm with what
a computer should be like.....
The PS3 is supposed to be a complete system....we'll
find out when everyone has had enough time to use one
long enough...expect some probs...
