Now that the format war won....

Anyone else who recently purchased a 360 wish they had bought a PS3?

Have been catching myself looking at prices on Blu-ray players, and thinking "might as well buy a PS3". But I just bought a flippin 360, and just can't justify having two consoles...

The Blu-ray capabilities of the PS3 did not phase me in the least, because I was not interested in HD til the format war was won. Just wasn't expecting it to end so soon.

Sigh.

So now because BD has won you are suddenly interested in a media useage you didn't care about before?

So why did you buy a 360.

If you really want and need BD then the Ps3 is now at such a decent price that it's worth it.

HD was of no interest to me until such time as the format battle was won.

The 360 does have better catalogue of games and was cheaper which swayed me in that direction initially

However, were I to be buying a console now, the blu-ray capabilities of the PS3 would actually appeal now that blu-ray is the winning format. Slightly more expensive, but with the option to play HD movies.

I do love my 360 though

Have said this before I think, but I do get the impression some people are really intolerant of the idea of people using hardware for reasons different to their own.

Fine, some of you use these systems for GAMES ONLY, thats not to say that everyone thinks that way.

I personally am quite happy using these systems for more than just games. It would mean one less box to find room for... already using my 360 for DVD's as normal dvd player looks shoddy over through scart.

Edit: for clarity
