    ah that sucks sorry to hear that. I'd say get it fixed again and talk to a customer service rep this time and tell them you are sick of having to get it fixed and want them to send you a new one...not a refurbed one. My mom did that for my brothers and got a new system sent to them and they haven't had any issues since. I don't really have issues with PSN either. Yeah I get disconnected from games occasionally in Battlefield Bad Company 2 but that can be a good thing sometimes. Kinda tells me when I should just pack up and go to bed lol.

    Yeah like i was saying there is no other choice besides the xbox for online gaming. It cost money and for some reason has over triple the amount of online players. Dunno must be because it outsells the PS3 5 to 1. Another thing i really like about the xbox is how everybody has headsets online. Everytime i take my PS3 online everybody is typing. Its funny how on the xbox you will get kicked for not having a headset while on PS3 hardly anyone has one. Guess its because it wasnt packaged with one. The other thing i really like is how the xbox gets ALOT of exclusives, like if the game is on both consoles the xbox will get some added downloadable features to kinda sway you towards getting there version. Also not having to put in a disc for netflix is really nice as well. Also load times on ps3 the fact there on bluray disc's makes the games take longer to load, thats why most games want you to install on the hard drive to shorten those times, i dont like this at all. O and teh ps3's lack of party chat, i use that so much i cant imagine online without it, same thing with the achievements they really want to make you finish games you never would before...

    I currently have a PS3, XBOX 360 (Elite), and WII (Black). If you can only afford one I would suggest a PS3 for all the things you can do with it. Also, the games are getting awesome! Please see my descriptions for all below:

    I use my 360 to play with friends since that is all they have. Becareful since RROD is a DEFINITE factor still plaguing users. Also, the 360 gets so hot it literally heats up your room fast.

    I use my PS3 for gaming, BluRay, and play online with some friends. Gran Turismo is finally coming out along with the new Twisted Metal game. You can also use it to browse the internet, use if through Linux, and a lot other cool stuff.

    The Wii is my latest add on. This is mostly used when friends come over and we feel like some fun times. This is GREAT to have for drinking purposes but make sure they tie on those damn controllers lol.

    Overall, PS3 is a console that will last the longest, give you a GREAT experience, and I guarantee you will be happy.

    Also, online game play for PS3 is FREE ---- XBOX costs money.

    -Mike

    Yeah, it just gets frustrating after time. To be honest, I still have the occasional lag with 360 online too. In my experience, online play has been very similar. The only time I hated 360 online is when COD4 was out. The invite system on COD4 on 360 was horrific. Otherwise, it's been quite similar to PSN. But to each their own. If that's what you want for the price, nobody is to say otherwise. :/

    360 + PC. Forza 2/3 came out before Sony could manage to push out GT5. That was a big reason. Plus everyone I know save for one friend has a 360. Microsoft's online offerings are hands down better than Sony's. It used to be no contest at all so at least Sony has stepped it up a bit, but it's too late for me.

    I Have a PS1, PS2, Wii, 360 but i play most games on PC.
    360 favourite at the moment though i think would have to be Forza and need for speed shift. But I am playing Assassins creed 2 at the moment although completed i have gone back to do all the mini missions and find all the treasures chests.

    I have to admit Sazzy that I used to collect videogame systems and games as a hobby. My collection got pretty big at around 750 games and over 35 different systems including handhelds. I played some of them occasionally but damn did I start to run out of room lol. Most of my games were NES and SNES games in the boxes and all the systems I had the original boxes for. I eventually had somebody offer me a good chunk of change for all my classic stuff and I felt it was time to make some room and some money since I had been collecting for about 5 years or so. What was funny was I had even started my own videogame section in an anime store in Pasadena, CA and when I finished up I had made some money but also had way more games than what I started with. Most of my high value games and systems were gone as people snatched those up fairly fast but I didn't mind. It was definitely an experience.
