I personally love my 360 , however now that the PS3 has lowered their price it does make it a tempting purchase. Plus it has a built in blu-ray player and some good games available and more coming soon.

Wasn't it insane when the PS3 first came out? People were able to get almost $2000 selling theirs online due to their being a lack of supply for the overwhelming Christmas demand(which I think they did on purpose)!

A few posts above you mentioned Bioshock. I agree with you 100%! That game kicks ass! I played it through two times in a row(something I had never done before with a video game) to get both of the endings.

Bioshock 2 looks like it will be a sweet game too!

I haven't played Fallout 3 yet(but I bought the Collector's Edition when it came out. It's a lunch pail! How cool is that?), but I recently played(and completed) Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout: Tactics. I'll give Fallout 3 a shot when I get a computer upgrade(as I don't think my 3800+ Dual Core will cut the mustard).

And don't forget the Vault Boy bobble-head too. They just released Fallout 3 game of the year edition w/ all the expansion dlc included!

Fallout 3 is awesome and i can't wait for the next one to come out. Bioshock just had so much depth (pun not intended) and polish , it was a great experience. From the characters and dialogue to the enviroments and plasmid abilities it was an amazing game. Bioshock 2 comes out in Feb. 2010 and looks to expand the backstory of Rapture.

LOL! Yeah, I forgot about the bobble-head.:D

I really enjoy the Collector's Editions that give you good extras rather than just a cheap little bonus. Besides the Fallout 3 CE, Icewind Dale 2, Baldur's Gate 2, and Pool Of Radiance 2: Ruins Of Myth Drannor had really good Collector's Editions as well. A favourite extra of mine is the Soundtrack CD. I should also mention that I bought the CE version of Bioshock which came with a CD with a couple of Moby remixes on it as well as a huge honkin' Big Daddy figurine! Awesome!

Bioshock had amazing depth. There were times when I was so immersed in the game that I actually felt like I was there. Even though I couldn't play the game with the maximum effects the visuals were astounding! I remember the first time walking through the flooded store and seeing the "wax" figurines. That game has better "fright" moments than a lot of the horror movies that are out any more. And how about that twist, eh Rockabilly? I won't mention it here as I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't played this game yet.

It also looks like Bioshock 2 will have Multiplayer! I have never played any Multiplayer games before(besides the odd LAN game) but that may change with this game! Will you be trying the Multiplayer aspect of this game(if it ships in a stable/playable mode)?

Hi there.

A freind lent me Fallout 1 & 2, boy was i NOT impressed, they were LAME, NWN 1 was way better, so were most games, is Fallout 3 the same thing rehashed like many game sequels are?
