Oh yeah and I had another problem last week. I was playing Gears and suddenly a message popped up saying "The disc is unreadable, try cleaning it with a soft cloth", I did that and it started working fine after that. I was like here we go, my 360 has started scratching discs!

My concern is wit the games, all good games seem to be migrating to X360 and currently it has a good no. of exclusives as well, like halo 3 and GTA 4 excl content I doubt if there's any use if I buy a PS3, after all at the end of the day, its the games that matter ! If I want to see a movie, there's always dvd, I dont need a BR ! BTW, thinking of getting a ps2, that seems to be best console as of now for timepass, all good games at 1/4 th the price of next-gen consoles !

^^ You nailed it.
I checked out the PS3 games available officially right now and it seems apart from Resistance there aren't any games which are not available on either the 360 or the PC. And most of the bigger upcoming titles will either be 360-exclusive or multiplatform. So there's no real need to buy a PS3 right now.

I was like here we go, my 360 has started scratching discs! dont worry...yr 360 is not scratching discs yet....tht is just a plain case of overheating....next time u get the same error, just eject and close the tray without even touching the disc...the game will work fine....its happened with me a few times....i also thought tht the console was scratching the discs, but when i checked, i found no scratch....so the next time i just pressed eject and then close tray and the disc worked fine....!! overheating...thts all..dont worry....

well i have to disagree with no ps3 major titles. Ms is thinking shortterm and their trump card is halo 3 but after that? Sonys major system sellers come only after halo or 08 and to spoil the halo party sony has 2 very imp games heavenly sword and lair, but make no mistake they dont stand a chance against halo 3 , so believe it or not sony's challenge to h3 is not even a game its something called home

Home is not a challenge to Halo 3....you can't play Home, its nothing but an interactive interface.....you still need something to do in it
Halo 3 vs Home is not really a comparison a potential buyer will make before buying either console.....its like comparing Motorstorm or RFOM with XBL
peace

though i have got a 360 but i think ps3's hardware is realiable than 360, just look how much problem it is creating with overheating and dont even start abt 3 rings of doom, i have used my ps2 for 5yrs it worked supersmooth, and i haven't heard abt any complaint of ps3 hardware malfunction. if u say that consoles r made by gr8 games then my friend they r also destroyed by hardware glitches and malfunctions. dont think that ps3 always gonna b suppressed, it will blow everyone away when titles like "7 days" and "mgs4" hits the market, just take into note that ps3 is new on the scene and developers r findind it hard to develop games 4 ps3 but when they tamed it's full potential then no1 would b able to stop it frm taking it's crown of no1 console back frm 360. i know things r in microsofts favour at present but they r not gonna stay forever that way. the day mgs4 arrive i'm gonna get a ps3 asap. peace
