Fellas i found this review everything informativehttp://www.hardcoreware.net/reviews/review-348-1.htmBut it could also be some serious fanboy-ism so take it some pepper.
xbox 360 does NOT use 1080p, just wanna clarify that for anyone into media and thinking they can output 1080p movies over xbox.In which case a 200 us dollar stand alone blu ray player, or an attached computer with a blu ray drive is a far cheaper and better option than buying a ps3 solely for blu ray.

There are a few games that are native 1080p on 360 and I believe the last update which coincided with the elite and hdmi cables it can display h.264 and wmv hd in 1080p. It might only do it with the hdmi connections but I'm sure I read that the 360 can now do 1080p.
no it cant, still limited to 1080i

You have a few things to consider;1. Are you planning to game online? - Xbox Live vs. PSN (To me there are more Xbox Live Trinis than PS3)2. Are you willing to pay for your online experience - Xbox Live (via CC or 12 Month Subscription Cards for full game support across the board) vs. PSN (Free but not supported by all games)3. Do you have an HDTV to experience the 1080p goodness of either the Xbox 360 or PS34. If you don't have an HDTV, and you plan on using your PC monitor as an option, the Xbox 360 has a VGA Adapter, not sure about the PS3, the PS3 guys on here can tell you..5. Games, Games and More Games...The Xbox 360 due to it's early start has a larger library of games, some of which are available for both systems, so the trade off is up to you6. NXE vs. Home - Xbox 360 is set to launch the NXE this Wednesday and it is supposed to be its answer to Sony's Home on the PS3, another cool feature which is only available in the US and Canada is Netflix streaming on the Xbox 360, which pretty much turns the Xbox into a Movie Rental machine based on your Netflix account. 10,000+ movies in the Netflix library is available for streaming to your Xbox 360 and HDTV, pretty cool business decision..7. RROD vs. PS3 Stability - Yes, the XBox 360 has had its failure rates, but with the new Falcon chips, the RROD has not been in the news at all, older versions of the 360 yes, but the newer 360's with the smaller cooler chip are more reliableBottom line, its your decision...Choose Wisely...Young Padawan!! LOL

BLu_ViCe if you at work, why would you want to watch a movie at work? You are there to get a job done, not watch movies, I don't think your boss will appreciate you getting paid to watch movies...and as for being out somewhere? Who watching a movie while going out? That defeats the purpose of going out...you might as well stay home and watch the movie...unless you on a long flight maybe but that's about the only good thing about having a PSP to watch movies on...You could say the same about the iPod touch which I have and use on the subway on my way to and from work in NY...but we are talking about the actual feature of streaming from a library of 10,000+ movies from Netflix which is a subscription based service, unlike paying for individual movies on the PSN network to rent or buy from what? 400 movies? 400 vs. 10,000, hmmm, I wonder which has more variety??
btw cross where do u live cuz if u live in trini then this "movie" topic is irrelevant bcuz u wont b able to enjoy any on either systems if u live outside the US

Any of you guys in the states could comfirm that the prices of games/accessories or maybe even the consoles might drop?
