I agree, these console wars are completely bullshit
Here's a post I made from another thread on how I feel, because I know you care.
Quite frankly both extremes of the "fanboy spectrum" are fucking idiots. Both consoles have their ups and downs, and really it all depends on what you're looking for. The PS3 may work out better for some, maybe because it offers things like built in wireless, which you don't have to pay $100 for an adaptor for(which already boots the price up you paid for the 360 to the same level as the PS3, anyway, unless of course you get the arcade.) Because some people have their console in a different room from their connection to the internet. If you happen to be able to use wires, then that's perfectly fine too. Fuck, if you don't mind paying the $100, for a wireless adapter, do it.
Also, the use of batteries in the controller may be a plus for some, because if they're low on battery and don't feel like recharging their controller, they can just change them quickly. Some people may get a PS3 for the bluray, but others may get their 360 and just stream netflix instead. Also, if you'd prefer to not pay for your online multiplayer, then go with the PS3. If you don't mind paying for online, and you'd rather go with the 360, then do that. Also, the fact that you seem to be able to use more 3rd party stuff with PS3(like harddrives, headsets, or even using a charger with a miniUSB end for the controllers, such as *some* phone chargers) could be nice for some people too.
Really it's not that hard people. It's 12:45 in the morning/night(45 minutes past midnight), and I'm rather tired, so that was probably poorly typed up or expressed, but I hope you get what I'm trying to say. There are too many god damn idiots polluting video game discussions though.
