Which console?

[Euro_Hunter]

Hi,

Considering buying myself a console for Xmas either Xbox360, PS3.

I had a 360 on launch day but sold it a year or so later, loved it but didn't use it much, but winter is on its way and I am in need of some gaming.

Interested in playing Modern Warefare 2, Forza 3, GT5 & Dragon Age Origins.

Don't want to start a fan boy war but if anyone who has both consoles and any of the above games could offer any opinions that would be great

I have a stand alone Bluray player so console will not be used to play DVD/BD's.

Thanks

Nige.

GT5 not coming out on the 360 then?

Certainly leaning towards the 360 Elite as I got on very well with the 360 controllers, something that I usually struggle with on consoles.

No GT5 forget that was a PS3 exclusive, ah well just hope that PGR5 does make it to the shelves one day.

Must admit not keen on having to pay to play online again though.

Get an Elite, also remember that the Elite's don't come with HD cables any more so remember to grab a HDMI/Component cable when you pick it up.

Thanks for that, would have thought HDMI cable would be included now as HD Tv's are commonplace.

Also did you manage to play PGR4 before you sold your system ?, fantastic racer and very cheap now so grab that if as well if you haven't played it.

Not played PGR4 but did have PGR3, is it much different?

Think its going to be a 360 Elite for me

Only advantage PS3 really has for me is rechargeable joypads & free online but Xbox live isn't as expensive as I thought so not really an issue.
