Thank you Tyrannis, was just going to post that. Also Xbox360 had the system coding and programming broken within one week of release. I believe it took around 6 months for the PS3.

i think there was a minor credit card hack problem when the ps3 first came out, but it was fixed 3 days later.
as multiple people have already said, we all have our favorites. and my xbox hasnt broken in over 4 years that ive had it. i had 1 part of the RROD but that went away when i figured out that my xbox overheated after 7 straight hours of accidentally leaving it on overnight. id rather have to pay a cheap amount of money each month (10 bux for the next year) than have to deal with a company that ripped off the wii. kinect has been more popular than PS3's move or whatever it is. also xbox 360's are alot cheaper than a PS3 where i live
1. how did SONY rip off the wii? if anything the wii ripped off sony&ps2. see, sony had motion control out before both xbox or nintendo did in the form of the eyetoy back with the ps2. sony sued nintendo over the wii, claiming it was sporting sony made hardware.
if anything, the kinect is a rip-off of the ps2 eyetoy, and the ps3 playstation Eye (both which came out before kinect)
and the wii is a ripoff of playstations eyetoy.
sure, the move may look similier to the wii's num chucks, but sony had motion control out first. so its not really "ripping off".
and the reason kinect has sold more than the move is 1 simple reason:advertisement.
if anything, M$ is ripping off sony by coming out with an "xbox slim".
M$ advertises the Kinect constantly. ive barely seen the move advertised. i play alot of shooter games. so i bought the move+sharpshooter gun to play with Killzone 3 (which both are amazing).
2. ya know that $15 a month you pay for stuff off XBL? guess what? ps3 has a web browser, which pretty much gives you everything for free, that you pay for on xbl. only benefit i can see to paying for xbl is receiving DLC content 1 month earlier than PSN, and thats not rly worth the pricetag on it.
3. Overheating that easily is still signs of a crappily built system. i left my ps3 on for a whole week once before (Was playing oblivion, kept joining missions on there& didnt want to quit so i left it on).
it was HOT, but still worked just fine. plus ps3's fan isent as loud as 360's.
call me a fanboy if you want, but ive had both. (and my mother had a wii, that now is collecting dust in her closet).
