Agreed, but it's not working on me. Since I do have a decent PC gaming rig I have a hard time justifying purchasing a 360 to play games that I, for the most part, can already play.
Though if I didn't have a decent gaming PC.......

The bolded part was referring to
exclusives, and as far as I can recall no PS3 exclusives are on PC

I hope the game is good too, I never played KZ one but I recall the hype train getting derailed. I also do not want to see either side dominating the market, otherwise people get lazy and we get a lot of crap.

Yep, big factor for the 360 grabbing games/ground quickly from launch. PS3 devs have had enough time, and have been given enough tools, so by now that it should only be slightly more difficult to develop/port to the ps3.... no more 'it's hard' excuses.
Though I think when it comes to multiplat games the 360 will always have a slight graphical advantage due to the hardware, the extra GPU memory for AA and the built in scaler seem to help a lot.

The review was fair, I'm not disputing that, though like I said most of these differences are negligible and the average person would not notice them unless they were pointed out.
And no I don't really buy into the 'only possible on' thing... there's really isn't too much that either console can do that the other can't. Both have their innate advantages: Pick your poison.
I'm as 'fair and balanced' as you are... I just happen to look from the other side of the fence is all
