Dilemma.

Considering how far away the PS3 still is form hitting our shores officially I would get the 360 now, enjoy it and then if you want to upon the ps3 release trade your 360 against it.

Or how about this... convince yourself that getting a PS3 really is a good idea (Yeah, I know, but stick with me on this one), wait for 3 months (or maybe 9) and then buy a 360 anyway as MS will have dropped the price to make the PS3 seem even less enticing.

It would take a hell of a lot more than 2 games to make me wait for PS3!
Why not consider the 360 equivalents?

PGR3 or Forza 2 (Feb release) and Final Fantasy XI

Never really been into GT series myself. Can't be doing with all this fine tuning you car etc. I just want to get in a car and race so PGR is my kinda game. FFXI is it really that bad? Again not my type of game so I wouldn't know, but with all the other quality titles available at the moment I honestly don't care

The internet was aflutter with rumours this weekend, as reports speculated that the massive PlayStation 3 Metal Gear Solid instalment, Guns of the Patriots was stealthing its way over to Xbox 360 - rumours that Konami has since debunked to CVG.

"Konami has no plans to bring Metal Gear Solid 4 to the Xbox 360 at this time," a Konami representative told CVG, reiterating that the Hideo Kojima stealth-em-up was still "exclusive to PlayStation 3."

The original internet report pointed at the MGS instalment branching-out onto multiple platforms due to Konami's concerns that there won't be enough PS3s in gamers' hands by the time it hits shelves.

Though going by the company's official word, it looks like there'll be no Solid Snake action on Microsoft's console for the time being. We wouldn't totally rule out a 360 version in the long term, but you can bet the game will be exclusive to PS3 for at least a year.

We'll be sure to pipe up if Konami flips its stance.

lol what you dislike makes GT so good! you can jump into any car on any game and just race. but that tends to lead to less longevity, and rather simplistic car handling physics. that makes PGR totally not my game:/

FFXI, isnt that on the PC like some MMPORG. i dont like MMOPRG's.

never played Forza, but i dunno.... i own GT1-4. it really is the best driving series on a console..
