@welshbloke, My e74 link was specifically chosen as it is a xbox specific site. e74 seems to definately be an underlying problem that has become more pronounced since the launch of NXE and/or Jasper.
As for 'the PS3 crowd' I assume you are refering to Joe80 and myself...both of us own the 360 so please don't lump me in. It is a simple fact that if you want wireless online gaming with decent media storage you can be better off with the PS3. I think I was pretty clear in implying that if it was something the OP wants he should be cognisant of the price. If you want a single player, non media centric, wired experience the Xbox is a good choice (though you risk the issue of high defective rate).
If the OP buys an 360 I say great...just do it with your eyes open and don't look back...enjoy the console(s) you choose.
