I'm glad I have a late era SNES with beautiful 480i output through HDMI.

If you shake it before you turn it on it actually has Bubsy 4D support, as originally promised.

LOL.

But guys you forgot to add available in the Middle East. LOL
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Except a $200 , 360 will run all multi plats better and comparable exclusives to a $400 PS3.
Add $20 for a hdd. WIFI meh it is nice to have it as a bullet point on the box but who needs it.
BLU RAY meh never watched 1 of those on my PS3, do not intend to---no interest . It is a game console (yes I like movies and have a 1080p tv).
How does that 1/2 the price 360 not compare to -heck thrash the TWICE THE PRICE PS3 as a game machine -- So far (-- by the end of this year who knows as SONY systems do not get great looking games that push the system until well into the 3rd year).
OH if you say Multi plats look and run better on   PS3 it just proves that you have not played both systems.

Yes this is one sided and bias, but it's funny how everyone jumps on this bullshit PR thing but not the 100,000 dumb PR things Microsoft said.  For example Greenberg saying that they don't have any competition, or him talking about how they have the most consoles sold (before wii overtook them, but failing to mention that they came out a year before).  All of this is just PR bullshit and it shouldn't even make news.

Although one thing on the list which is true and such a fucking rip off that I still to this day can't believe Microsoft gets away with is the wireless adapter at $100.

Yep that is a great game. It is a shame no 1 bought it. I would have loved that game to become a franchise. Same as OPERATION DARKNESS on 360

I own a PS3, my roommate owns a 360. The consoles sit just an inch apart in the entertainment center.

Sometimes I think I can hear them making sweet, sweet console love at night when they think everyones asleep. So, in the end, it doesn't matter which console we love, just that they love each other.

"Aren't video game site owners supposed to do their best to be unbiased towards consoles?"

Uh, no. This isn't wikipedia. It's not the Wall Street Journal either. One of the nice things about Giantbomb is that the editors all have opinions and we get to hear them on the blog and in the podcast.

Maybe they do think Sony has some weird PR and the PS3 is the weak horse in this round, but that doesn't necessarily damage their ability to review games for it.

I don't think Jeff is particularly biased. I believe he recently called a high profile 360 exclusive "mad boring."
I might not always agree with him. But, he calls 'em like he sees 'em and I respect that.

This is really pathetic of Sony to put out - probably to detract conversation from CES and Microsoft/Nintendo monopoly on the casual and core gamers.  If they just stated why they were awesome without the comparison chart it would definently be a lot better.  I think they wanted to create some Heat and have the fanboys on both ends take over from there.  Very lazy effort.

It is true....

IF
a) you need a hard drive ... for something (all 360 games run without it)
b) you want to play Blu-Ray movies
c) you use wireless connectivity for you console
d) you play online

I'd imagine that for the majority of users, especially as you get more mainstream, non of these matter.

(obviously, the HDMI bit is utter garbage though)

For once Sony has used of pure and perfect logic, but logic is something xbots dislike. Nothing Sony said is false, because for anybody to actually enjoy the 360  there are extra costs (this without considering 3rl). The PS3 is the cheaper and has the best game library and plays Bluray (upscaled DVDs are simply awful). Anybody with an HDTV will buy a Bluray, eventually.

I think Sony is better off showing how their console is actually a better choice than reduce any of its price. This article is simply so unprofessional and childish, because it doesn't come with any facts or information. It is just a knee jerk reaction of a fanboy when confronted with the reality.

I've already provided an analysis of the chart, which you have chosen to ignore. And you were expecting something professional from a Giant Bomb news article? I think you've come to the wrong site. These news guys like to have a bit of fun.

Who's the troll-in-chief? Jeff? He's been critical of all the systems. This article seems to be primarily an attempt to have a bit of fun though.

Top of the fifth page if you're reading this on the forums, bottom of the sixth if you're reading it from the news pages.
Looks like some fanboy already read it and voted it down.
