WOW you are smart. Thank you for stating the obvious, I'm pretty sure not a lot of ppl knew that the XBOX had this from the start. What other smart things can you tell us? Is the XBOX made from Microsoft? Can you pls confirm b/c I'm pretty sure not a lot of ppl know this.
This is a particularly dumb retort. The reason the PS3 is outselling the 360, despite the higher price, is that the PS3 has a lot of functionality that the 360 doesn't.
For example, I am typing this on Firefox from my PS3. I also have a 20 page seminar paper in Openoffice on my PS3's taskbar that I'm going to print as soon as I proofread it again. My kids make claymation movies with Eyecreate (free PS3 software), watch Planet Earth in 1080p, and I play 60 person multiplayer games with no online fees. The graphics of my games, such as Uncharted and MGS4, are almost as good as my PC's (on which I have games like Gears of War).
The 360 is a great system, and it's good that Sony is taking the ideas that some PS3 users want and implementing them without rushing. But it's crazy to claim that the PS3 is 'catching up' with a console if that console seems to be technologically and functionally inferior in several respects.
If all you want to do is play multiplayer FPS games, the consoles are getting pretty equal but the 360 has the historical advantage. But I can think of a lot of other interests a console owner can have that would make the 360 seem behind the times.
wtf people..... my xbox 360 is a launch unit and it still works perfectly.....I own all 3 systems and I can honestly say this should have already been part of the system from the beginning....
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Haha - Xbox 360 has had most of this since launch! Get with the times, Sony.

Yeh, you're right. The PS3 does make a good PC.
HDMI? Oh that's right, PS3 had this right from the start. Get with the times Microsoft!
Oh, and then there's Blu-ray........
HDMI, Blu Ray, Bluetooth, Wifi, serial ATA, web browser, free online play, etc.
The ability to continue working after a month.
