I'm in the same situation as the OP. One thing I haven't seen in this thread it the failure rates of the Xbox. The red ring of death. I've heard that it affects 1/3 of Xboxes. Is the PS3 more stable or does it have issues as well?

approx. 30 percent of 360's are showing defects compared to one half of one percent of ps3's
thats .30 compared to .005
numbers like that dont lie folks [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

A complete non-issue in my opinion, especially given that you can get it replaced fairly easily.

I don't think it's a non-issue. 30% is a VERY high chance that you will have to put up with a major pain in the ass. It happened to me twice last generation, so I am sensitive to this issue.
