Well Mr. Deap im sure you have your own reasons for not wanting a PS3 and they are your's and Your's only, nobody can tell you other wise, but to lash out at a game or console just because you dont like it isnt a good enough reason.
The fact of the matter is that most games Ive seen on the PS3 have been better looking than nay 2nd gen titles on the rival console, im not putting my money into PS3 solely on graphics, gameplay, ai or even physics, im putting my money into a system that will last me its whole life cycle without me having to upgrade it or spend extra cash to get the most out of the games, yes you will have the option to do this but you are pretty much forced into it with the 360 from the off.
Im purchasing the PS3 for its future proof (or hoping it will be) BLU-RAY abilities not to mention the great lineup of AAA titles coming in the future and the rest of the future proof stuff. Im always willing to forgive fellow gamers for making rash judgements because I once was like this too hating on N64 players, but I hang my head these days as I play and totally enjoy N64 games on my gamecube.
As for posting screenshots, they dont do much for this gen games on either system, since they use DOF, and Motion Blur this then makes the shots look a little too blury and poor, you have to watch the videos of the games in motion, and make your mind up then (not saying you havent watched the video).
and not supporting a system for having a top of the line CPU and future proof storage device, then this just shows you in a bad light, its like cutting off your nose to spite your face and is quite counter productive to your enjoyment and happiness by hating something for being daring and pushing the technology that has gone before it.
Myabe you will heed the words and maybe you wont, but for your sake I hope you do and see that playing both the 360, wii and also the PS3 is they way forward, you dsont see me hating on the 360 boys because i dont like the halo games or because I dont like much thats out for the 360 at the moment.
cheers.
If you want a system that really worth the money, go with the Wii, Cause cables are expensive. Both XBOX 360 & PS3 is really expensive with the extra. My XBOX 360 cables alone I bought; VGA, S-Video & Component: 120$
As for viewing video & stuff, a computer is a lot more economic when you buy a disk reader. Current graphic card support multiple screen.
You'll be surprised, but I mostly play RPG & racing games. I don't even own the first XBOX.

Though I'm not talking about the PS3 vs XBOX 360. What I'm saying is that Motorstorm will be ugly. FFXIII look awesome, but Motorstorm is just plain ugly.
