I own a 360 right now, mainly because the games are just flatout better for it at the moment. Thinking of trading it for a PS3 on craiglist because of the blu ray though.

Which one do you have and why?

I have both. My preference is Xbox 360 primarily because of the controller ergonomics. I used to be a huge PS fan boy, but I've since changed my mind. I still play my PS3 on occasion, but I'm mainly keeping it around for the BluRay functionality. The only real pisser about the PS3 is it does not have an IR port for use with a universal remote (I have a Harmony). It only uses Bluetooth. So, I have this $100 remote that controls everything including the lights in my movie room, but I still have to use the damn PS3 controller if I want to watch a BluRay movie. Shortsightedness on Sony's part.

If the only reason you are trading is for Blu-ray, I would just wait until MS releases the Blu-ray player for the 360. No it isn't officially announced but it is coming.

I have both. I like the controller, the interface, and the online community much better on the 360. I like the quietness of the PS3 and the 7.1 audio output. Both machines have exclusive games that make it tough to decide, although that is not as big an issue as it used to be. If I had to choose one I would probably stick with the 360 because I have more friends on that system, but it would be a tough choice.

I dont have an elite so im not sure its compatable with the premium (no HDMI).

On a side topic.. anyone else pumped for GTA4?

i was a ps fanboy too for the longest time, but i finally got the 360... and until EA starts making their sports games in 60 fps for the ps3, i'm going to continue playing thr 360. it just looks so much better. the problem is that most games available on both systems are written for the 360 and then ported out to the ps3, so the games will always look better on the 360... unless of course it's a ps3 exclusive game.

A bit, the fact you can drive drunk alone is worth the price of admission. Not that i would do that in real life.

PS3s are more impressive in my opinion, but XBOX 360s are more enjoyable because more people have them. You always have tons of people to play H3 and COD4 with on Live.

COD4 has my vote for funnest game out. I would think that you should keep your 360 and wait for a BR add on. I have played my brother in law's PS3 and Ninja Gaiden is pretty freakin sweet.

You think there will be Blu-Ray in the current Xbox? I've been wondering about that.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
