I’v had two ps2s, the ones that first came out, and the “fixed” ones that came out a year later,
Obivously is it not all that smart to buy the first shipment, Everyone should know this by now, With the 360s over heating and what not, Im sure the Ps3 will have its problems, but if you buy one from the second, or even third shipment i don’t think you have to worry about replacing untill the Ps4,
And by then, Ps3s will be alot cheaper.

One thing i have to admit, Is i have not used the online elements for the Ps3, and i have for the 360, and the 360 does a damn good job.
My Wal-mart has a Ps3 on display but there is always someone playing it -.- and i doubt they have it networked.

Also to note is that with the PS3 all of the work (games and dvds)is being done by a single drive, and as such it will wear out faster. With the 360 the work of games is done by one drive, and the HDdvd work is done by another. So if one unit breaks after warrenty, you don't have to spend a ANOTHER 600 bucks to replace it....just whatever the cost to replace the broken component would be.

Xbox360 + HD ad on = 600$
