From what I have been reading and talking to an inside source on the developement for the 360, I am definately going the 360. Alot of game makers are switching to the 360 because of the live feature. It is added revenue for them. P.S. doesnt have a solid one. Sony had been week in that area. As too performance, well the PS3 has'nt even been made yet. It is still all in theory for that system. You can have all the horsepower you want, but without the right driver it isnt going any where. Oh sony will do well in japan, but honestly, I would definately buy the 360 over the ps3.
