  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Unfortunately I am divided. The Nintendo 64 and SNES were amazing, but I wasn't a huge fan of the Cube. On the other hand the PS1 and PS2 were both excellent. I can't choose Xbox because it's not old enough to compete with the other two. I guess I'm going to have to go with playstation though, as it had Final fantasy 7 and Final Fantasy tactics, but the nintendo series was just as gold.

GC has 512 of Flash Ram.
The PS3 will have an optional hd.
The Xbox 360 will come with a 20 gig (or less) detachable hd.

The PS3 is, theoretically, more powerful than the Xbox 360.
I think the "power" of a console becomes a moot point when you're comparing a PS3 to a Xbox 360.

I have yet to see a game run slowly or poorly on a PS2 or an Xbox... and you can't run the same disk in both, so you can't really compare.

Xbox forever!

No, you see the comparisons with the Xbox and PS2, why Halo won't run well on the PS2, etc.

From a technical standpoint, the PS3, in a lot of aspects, should beat out the Xbox 360. But equally, the Xbox is designed more for the current generation of programming, thus making that console easier to design for.

You're right, that you won't see an Xbox or PS2 game run slowly... unless there is a huge framerate issue or a lot of things going on at once (Dynasty Warriors, a gang bang in Halo 2, etc). But it remains to be seen how powerful each console truly is.
