^ I don't see anywhere near the kind of games that are coming out for the PS3 and 360 coming out for the Wii. Albeit I don't really pay much attention.

The 2 major reasons I won't touch a 360 are that there aren't any games that interest me that I can't get on the PS3 anyway and everyone I know that has a 360 has had to get there's fixed at least once. In some cases 3-4 times in a year. What's the point if they break down so often.

My thoughts exactly. Although in some ways, the PS3 can/could be modded more, what with Linux support and such. I think because they were legal mods they get less interest. I really don't get the point of either a) modding a 360 illegally and waiting to get banned from Live or b) owning 2 so you can play free games? You have to pay $300 min + the cost of the mod on top of your original 360 to play "free" games. That doesn't sound so free to me.

Then they just kept the Arcade just in case it failed again (which, in several cases, it did). I can't say I know anyone who has more than 1 PS3 (and I only know 1 person who has had one fail on them).

I know of a couple who have, I was rather confused cause either it was under warranty or I coulda fixed it. Oh well. What I find the funniest is the one guy I know who has been through 5 360's, and finally sold his off after MS fixed it, only to buy another (an Elite this time) and have it RRoD. What a joke. I don't mean to be a fanboy but how the hell can people keep buying a console with a 54% fail rate?
