Definitely go 360. PS3 is a nice machine, but if youve got a 7 year old a 360 will have many more games for him to enjoy, not to mention awesome arcade games on live that he could play. :tup: ---

[quote=“RobHimself,post:26,topic:38856"”] But I have to mention again sony has had superior technology in the past ie: Beta max, memory stick, mini disk im sure theres more that i can’t recall… [/quote] true, but I imagine games will require more than a dual layer dvd in the coming years. However if it is for movies than I think Blu-Ray is overkill for 2 hours of footage and some extras. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/ps3-or-x-box-360/38856.md?page=1)
