not if you install your game to the HDD, like a ps3 does, practiaclly silent then like a PS3.
:O least the more expensive better format won out this time (blu ray)
and funny enough thats what u get in a ps3 which is the main reason its better than the xbox.
well that and the only thing u need for a ps3 is a hdmi cable compared to xbox360 which needs wireless adaptor when they still made em hd dvd player, controller charger or lots of batteries etc

just for the sake of one game i would not get the ps3 as you could get it only then to find that there a 2 games you want for 360
well the xbox needed a hd dvd drive addon to play hd dvds but they dont even make them anymore.
at least with the ps3 you get the best blu ray dvd player money can buy
why?
cos its the only blu ray player that get software upgrades so you get all the new features
Most the other stuff was correct
However - the xbox customer service is excellent, not that ive had to use it.
The sixaxis pads are ****ing ****, lets be hnest, and the tilt function is an afterthought at best.
#the ps3 browser is very poor, but at least its there I spose.
~the live service with 360 can be had for about £27 so 50p a week. to me thats a bargain for how useful it is compared to the broken ps3 network.
the graphics are equal if not better on the 360, and all the resolutions you listed can be run on both systems, so thats not a ps3 pro at all. added to this, multiformat games often suffer on the ps3 - examples are skate, fallout 3 and GTA4 to name but a handful.
Ive owned all the next gen consoles and my parting shot is:
if you want cheap gaming, with the ability to have a media centre in your living room, and play online with mates, the 360 wins all the way.
the only way I see the ps3 being viable is if you really intend to utilise the blu ray player. The games catalog is smaller, more expensive, the console itself is still what £300? the controllers really are poor (the triggers are convex for god sake!) and the online service while free is much less functional than the xbox live service.
The only big negative i see for the 360 is the red rings ****, but that is being improved with the latest chipset (65nm manufacturing) which is on the shelves now.
Ive had pretty much every console made, 360 is the best ive owned
