either or you're taking the piss or you're a little behind the times on the technology front. hd-dvd is to be discontinued.

There will certainly be no internal HD-DVD player.

You do know that you can sit the PS3 vertically as well...

I'd vote neither. I had a 360 but i sold it; i prefer my dinosaur pc to that thing. How long has the PS3 been out? I'd guess the range of games will get better in the long run.

PS3 has been out a little over a year and as an interesting side it sold 1 million units quicker than the 360 (and also the PS2) in the UK.

the 360 suffered from being unable to meet demand though which undoubtably prevented it from acheiving sales as quickly as the ps3 has.

That is true, but still the numbers don't lie. You could argue that the PS3 was facing an uphill struggle against an already established console with a large fanbase and draw of exclusive titles and lower prices though...

i think the ps3 as cheap blu-ray player coupled with the large playstation fanbase has helped it along quite nicely. still a long way to go before it catches up with 360 though in terms of sales and games sold. looks like there's room for all 3 this generation though.
