Better games, better service (imo.. xbox has never gone down or been hacked licke lamestation), all my friends have em, had an original xbox so its what i’m used to..

TBH Ive played both and the games are nearly identical, certainly no difference were picking one over the over, network security & reliability has been an issue for some in the past though never for me and as I understand it those problems have been fixed…….

BUT you hit the nail on the head with familiarity and social groups, people rarely change console, they like to stick to what they know, and their choice is usually based on what their friends & family have rather than specs.

Still I would be more likely to put my Speccy 48k ( which has sat in the attic for 20 years ) in fav possessions than a PS or XBox, the speccy has character and far more fond memories. I have no more personal attachment to my PS3 than to the TV or the toaster, if it breaks or when it becomes obsolete I will simply sell or bin & replace it.
