Lots of people are wondering whether to buy XBOX 360 or wait for
PS3. So, to help you make a decision I've compiled a comparison
of the XBOX 360 and PS3.
Both are tremendously powerful and have some advantage over
each other. PS3 has advantage with its compatibility with
previous PS versions and XBOX has tremendous support for device
connectivity with its HD Media Center. Its connectivity
including direct support for Apple iPod is great. And Sony has
nothing like Xbox Live service which gets even better with Xbox
360. But, biggest advantage XBOX will have over PS3 will be
price, XBOX was released for $299 - $399 (core or premium) but
it's clear from all the report I have read PS3 will be launched
for around $500.
Here is summary of difference between two consoles. You can
