It's disappointing at how unreliable the Xbox360 seems to be. But have a look at the price in Australia at the moment. You can get a 60gb Xbox360 plus 4 games for around $390, whereas a 80gb PS3 plus 2 games would set you back $680. There is a massive price difference.

On price alone I would be inclined to get the Xbox360. I've heard that they've improved the reliability of the console and the newly manufactured consoles don't break down as much as the older ones did. Hopefully this is true. Until then though, I'll probably stick to my PS2 and keep my money in my pocket for now.
