So over the weekend I was on vacation with some friends and some loser brought an Xbox 360 and a few games. So after throughly stomping him out in Madden, I played a few of the games he had. I was somewhat impressed. He had Madden which I liked a lot, 2k baseball, which was meh and Ghost Recon which was pretty solid.

Thing is, I've always been more of a PS guy form the PS1 and 2 but the PS3 looks like garbage and I'm in need of a new console as I've gotten pretty much all I'm gonna get out of my PS2. I liked Madden and would play most of the sports games, but I'm also looking for a bunch of games that'd be fun to play when a couple of the guys come over. I don't love FPS (I tire of them quickly, so I wouldn't necessarily be into Gears of War and the like) I'm big into sports games I'll also want something that I can play alone and still enjoy. In that regard what does the 360 offer me? Should I wait for the PS3 to take off?

The only thing I absolutely hated was the system overheating and locking up, which it did a few times in 3 days. If I had to deal with that consistently, I'd probably put the system back in the box, take it back and get like a Wii or something.

Any and all help would be appreciated and if anyone has any questions I'll probably check the thread fairly consistently for the next day or two.

Thanks a lot in advance, everyone!
