I'll leave this thread open as long as everyone keeps things clean and don't start a flame war. This might be an interesting and helpful thread for those that are thinking about purchasing a console, but haven't reached a decision yet. I renamed the thread from x-box features to Console Features to invite owners of other consoles to chime in with their opinions. Remember to keep it clean everyone!

The ones in red are more of an opoin rather then facts/features.
But also with the 360
-pay for a hard drive with cheaper version
-Pay for the wireless adapter.
PS3:
-Big Hard drive.
-Wireless built in
-Blue Ray player
-Not Backwards compatible any more.[(but then again who doesnt have a PS2)older 60 gig backwards compatible]
-Rarely dies
-Good customer service if you ever get a failure
-Free online
-Alot of people online all the time
-Uses regular laptop hard drive, and is easy to replace.
-Thiner and runs cooler(the new ones)
-Can Use external hard drive for memory(yea ive done it).
-4 USB ports,also includes SD card reader and CF drive and PRO drive.
-Games frequently released also.
-Blue tooth head set, no need to buy a special one either.
That should be it.

The PC is a console. I think.

+Able to run multiple games
+Easy to crack/ hack games
+If you do illegal things, games are free
+Doesn't need to be hooked up to a T.V.
-Expensive if you want games to run smoothly
-Not a whole lot of games
-Not a lot of accuracy when all you have are arrows
-Viruses
-Multiplayer is crap since so few people use PCs for games.

Men are too embarrassed to say, "I've recently purchased a new 50 inch plasma computer monitor! Yeah!..."

1 thing i think we can all agree on is
Xbox 360:
+FM3 = pwnage
PS3: (which i dont have i used to have a ps2)
+GT5 = is gonna be pwnage
PC:
dont know any good racing sims but im sure they are pwnage
+VRC - Virtual R/C racing game hook it up to ur hobby grade grade transmitter and ur playing with ur r/c car without the worry of breaking it or cleaning it up
