I consider myself a PS3 fanboy but I find this feature of the 360 to be an overwhelming advantage over the PS3. I have always thought of downloadable movies as the generation after Blu-Ray/ HD DVD. The 360 seems to have everything going right for them, while the PS3 continues to lag behind. The bad new for the PS3 is non-stop. Meanwhile, the 360 is adding features everyday.
This feature has put the 360 way above the PS3 in terms of being a multimedia station. The 360 also has better games comming out and slightly better graphics from what I've seen so far even though the PS3 isnt out yet.
I don't want to be stuck paying $200 dollars more for less of a machine. This feature has clinched my decision to buy a 360 rather than my beloved PS3. I never though I'd be saying this a year ago.
I'd still wait for the PS3 release to see it in it's full glory if i were you. The DRM and peripherals needed for the 360 are still quite the drawback.
What do you think we are, like 12? Simply calling yourself a ps3 fanboy doesnt mean you are one. Be proud of who you are xbox360 fanboy, be bold! By the way, I like the interface and feature. I might be tempted to keep my 360. I was gonna sell mine on ebay after I get the ps3. Cannot stand the yearly subscription to live and having to change the battery to my controller in the middle of a game! Little complaints, but they drive me crazy.
