I want to go one of these systems for Christmas but I'm not sure which one. I am leaning towards the 360 (cuz of Halo 3) but please give me your opinion which one to ask for.

And also wht games or extras you guys thing i should get with it.

A long thread. A poll, too. (http://www.lacrosseforums.com/showthread.php?t=97391&highlight=xbox+360+ps3)

360. I think the Live is superior, even if it isn't free. It has a lot better games. So what, no Blue-Ray? Do you own Blue-Ray disks?

Thread with the exact same title that was closed. (http://www.lacrosseforums.com/showthread.php?t=102335&highlight=ps3+xbox+360)

I think there are a bunch of threads on this....
anyway;
I would go for Xbox 360, I have that and a Wii. The Wii is complete and utter garbage. DO NOT get a Wii. It plain old sucks, theres no good games, the whole move your body with the remote doesn't always work, its basically a $250 gimmick. Nothing more. You will get bored of it within the first week.

Go with 360, there are LOTS of games, and not just because of Halo 3! I find Halo extremely boring. Well, maybe because I played it to death. Anyway, there are a bunch of great games for xbox including: Mass Effect, Assassins Creed, Call of Duty 4, Madden, NCAA, Halo 3, Oblivion, Rainbow Six Vegas... the list continues on and on. Whereas no other console has any good games!!

Plus, you have xbox live. Amazing. Ingenius. Fun. Playing with your friends, having a good time while playing sweet games! doesn't get any better!

You can download new movies that are released, like 300, and transformers etc. etc. you can get arcade games, you can get game trailers, xbox originals... SO MUCH!!! 360 is the best out there.

The only con to 360 is that for SOME people, the 360 itself seems to die out fast--meaning they aren't made to the best of quality. Mine hasn't failed me, and I have had mine for 2 years.

Also, You have gamerscore, which some people don't care about, but to me, it makes me want to play the game more, get more involved. Gamerscore is where you get points for doing certain things in a game. Like one of them is complete Halo 3 campaign on legendary. You get X amount of points for it and so on. Basically, some achievements (that's what they are called) make you "dive" into the game more, to give you a reason not to just blow through campaign... makes things more fun.

And yea... Wii blows. PS3 is just an inexpensive Blu-Ray player that has crappy games and nothing much to it. 360 is the way to go.
