• Xbox 360 and PS3 are "equal in power @ Next-gen.biz (8.5/10)

"The 360 and the PS3 are equal in power in my eyes," he said. "Maybe the PS3 has more processing power. The 360 has more available memory. It's pretty much a net, net. The public perception of the PS3 was that it was much more powerful. To developers, they look even."

Enjoy!

The xbox live server is detecting modded 360s. So may have to get two 360s, one to play whatever, the other to play you copies.... LOL. Makes no real sense to me anyway.

I'm sure by now, everyone knows about the Dashboard Update so I won't even mention it... DOH! too late.

• Xbox 360 Sales Solid, but not Super! @ Biz. Game Daily.com (6/10)
