Hello there, I guess this will be my first post and topic in this corner.

Anyway, I currently own a PS2, which I've already grown bored of it. I bought it since the first week of its launching, so that would make it a couple of years already.

So now I'm looking into the next generation consoles. Either the XBOX 360 or the PS3. I have no intentions to go into the Wii.

A friend of mine, who's the editor of HWM magazine, has both the XBOX 360 and PS3 in his home and he advised me to go for the XBOX 360 instead of the PS3. He said the shortage of games and unavailability of *cheaper* games on the PS3 gives the XBOX 360 the edge.

So I would like to know what do you guys think? Price is not a factor to me.

Thanks.

Guys, I barely have time to even play PS2, I doubt I will have time to satisfy both the 360 and PS3. I'm not a hardcore gamer, I'm just a casual one. So I guess one would be sufficient.

I already have a HDTV, well basically my visual system at home is pretty much HD ready including my DVD players and such.

Basically I just need a console to entertain me when I'm free at home. I'm not the type who'd cancel my plans and appointments just to play games.

Really, I don't like the Wii so I guess it's still between the PS3 and XBOX 360.

May I ask how much would be a brand new modded XBOX 360 selling outside? The package which includes 2 wireless controllers.
