Got the 60gb model and it runs pretty quietly. Prefer the general feel of the PS3, and I don't see the point in spending £40 a year just to go online

god bless you sir/madam
yeah, i thought everyone uses wireless for media serving and game play? unless your internets or routers are weaksauce...
ps3 is just miles better. it does a lot, and it outsells xbox globally, as does the Wii

It's very simple, if you use wireless you are not a real online gamer.
The fastest wireless router can not come close to wired sustained bandwidth and speed. This causes lag. At the level real gamers play at, a few 100th's of a second is the difference between winning and loosing.
No doubt though, for casual gamers that play an hour a week, and really mostly spend their time watching movies on their gaming system, ps3 is a good choice.

^ used to be the case. Fewer games release on PC and when they do they release much later.

This and the fact that Activision seems do be deliberately trying to ruin PC gaming.

I wish I could get pro-level that good at a game. I'll probably get real serious about the next Smash Bros games (whenever it comes out).

Xbox - just got my red rings of death after about 5 years.
I rang em up, and they said they'd fix it all up for free. AFTER 5 FUCKING YEARS.
Serious respect.
