Um yeah. Ok let assume this thing will cost $100.

So

XBOX 360 $299 blu-ray add-on $100 TOTAL $399
PS3 with blu-ray $299 TOTAL $299

So yeah makes total sense why people would go for that. Not to mention you have two separate devices since it's an add-on instead of everything being in one nice small package. O course I'm not even adding in the fact that the PS3 was built in wi-fi and with the XBOX 360 you need to spend another $100.

You sound like a fanboi

as far as the PS3 not reigning. Sorry but the PS3 outsold both the XBOX 360 and Wii in September. At least get your fact straight. In the last 10 months the PS3 and XBOX 360 have sold the same amount of units. I'll call that a push. And if you want to get technical in its first 3 years of existence the XBOX 360 sold 23 million units the PS3 which still has a month to go before it hits it's 3 year anniversary has sold 25.2 million units and the 360 had a whole year in which is had ZERO competition. And of all the 360s sold how many are someone's 2nd, 3rd and 4th replacement for a unit that when kaput?

Now don't get me wrong we have a 360 in the household. I don't even own a PS3. The 360 is a good system has good games and all, but it has it's faults too and to suggest it is somehow oh so superior to the PS3 is just stupid.

By the way if you already own a 360 and want blu-ray why waste money on some gimped add-on from MS when you can go to wal-mart and get a blu-ray player that is better for $150? Not to mention that $150 blu-ray player will probably be $100 by Christmas.
