Forza Motorsport 3

The video below is more of a discussion regarding some of the features and experiences that will be bundled in FM3, but it seems decent. Too bad I don't own an XBox 360, though.

probably one of the only reasons I'd buy a 360. I just don't like the controller.

I agree Alex... I could play the 360 for hours but the PS controller is uncomfortable after a half hour.

F3 looks awesome, I loved the second one.

I'm not really into video games but I may have to step up and buy a 360 for this game.

I've been playing F3 for a couple days now on my 360...I don't play much but this game is quite addicting and very intense ...I'd recommend it to everyone!

His voice is prefect for TV. He narrates Deadliest Catch really well and I think he went to either Overlea or Towson High, so he's a Baltimore boy.

GT. even at 4 years old, it's near equal to Forza... Xbox is a toy, PS3 is a multimedia system.

X box's focus is gaming. PS3's focus is all over the place, therefore, for gaming X box is better.

Owned the 360 for a few years now. Not one problem. No RRoD, disk reading problems, or wireless connectivity issues. I power it up, play games or watch movies or listen to music, and it never gives me a problem. I have however been through three PS2s when they were popular before the 360 and PS3. They gave me problems all the time. Got rid of it and bought an original Xbox. Again, no issues with it either.

I personally can't speak for the PS3 as I've never owned one. Hopefully once my finances are in better shape and I have a better paying job I will get one. Then I can compare for myself.

I never had a problem with my Playstations and got the red rings from punching my X box probably, but I still prefer X box for gaming.

My gf and I were at Best Buy Saturday and I was looking at the PS3. I said "boy it would be nice to have one of those.... Hint hint wink wink!" She smiled and rolled her eyes.

I stopped purchasing console gaming systems after my PS2. I have wanted to get a PS3 for a while now, but I just do not play video games much anymore, unless they are on my computer. If I was to get another console, it would be the PS3 simply for the multimedia upside of the system.

As far as console reliability, I have had my PS2 for 5-6 years at least. The only problem that I have ever had with it is DVDs skipping occasionally, and Guitar Hero freezing up during certain songs. Aside from that, it has been great.

My 360 came down with the red ring of 4 times within the first year of owning it. They finally came out with a full proof solution and haven't had the ring since.

I'll probably pick up a PS3 sometime simply for the blue ray. Other than that I really can't think of a reason to get one.

Is it cheaper than a Blu Ray player? I'm sure it will have some good PS only games, like MGS.

It used to be. They all run around 150-300+ now. The PS3 is $299 now and has multimedia properties that no other blu-ray player has.
