Poll: Is there honestly enough of a graphics difference between the 360 and PS3 to make it a selling point

Not enough of a difference, Installing the games is not worth your time.
Disgaea 3, Eat Lead, LittleBigPlanet, Fallout 3 and Killzone 2 are all examples of games where the installation time was so short I don't even remember there being one.

Incidentally, check out the requirements for Killzone 2 compared to, say, Resistance 2; how the fuck can Killzone 2 use virtually no memory!?
Did Killzone 2 have to install?

I chose the console with the most games. AKA: The 360. The PS3 had a pretty weak line-up when first released but is getting better. Especially with GoW3 on the horizon.

I however will be sticking with my 360 just because I can't afford that George Forman right now.

Not really. If there is, the PS3 would have a slight, ever so slight, edge on the 360 largely in part to the fact that I played Motorstorm and it made my draw drop. It seems like the only time the PS3's graphics are better than the 360's, and this is just me, is when you play a racing game like PGR or GRID... or Motorstorm.

I think that the difference comes really when you´ve got a HDTV and you plug them with the HD cable

if you´ve got a plain simple TV, it is the same, I played Killzone 2 in a friends HDTV and it really looked much better than the 360 graphics in the same TV

but, well, it really doesn´t matter if you don´t have a HDTV.

I dont notice Any Graphics And I have both - PS3's largest selling point seems to be Free Online, But I bought the same map pack on each system, And i found out buying things on Ps3 'Shop' is More expensive than the 360's Marketplace, also, if you cant pay for £5 a month, your most likeley a kid without a credit card...I prefer 360's games anyway ^^ Gow, halo...Even crackdown is fun ^^

i have both and i can see a slight difference in the graphics but not enough to make a difference. i do play the 360 more but that may just be because all my friends have 360 and the online play is extremely better on 360.

How would GoW3 affect the Ps3's lineup if gears of war is a 360 Exclusive series? ...

The only point where either the PS3 or Blu-Ray in general holds any sway is once you pass 1080p. I would imagine less than 15% of this country has a 1080p television simply because they are way too expensive. Up until that point, there is absolutely no difference at all, and the hardware difference hasn't been exploited at all, it seems. I could be wrong, but I haven't seen any PS3 game released that could not have been done, conceivably, on the Xbox. I could be wrong of course, but that could be because when I was choosing between the two, I saw:

$400 or $600... $400 or $600... hmm.. since there is no apparent difference..

Actually, that was just you being tricked. The price for both are the same, but the 360 uses its arbitrary points system and has set it at a .8=1 exchange rate simply to fool people into thinking its cheaper.
Actually, I knew that say, 100 points wasnt £1, I used maths to measure the exact amount of points/Euros, But there was still a price difference on everything I checked of over at least a tenth, And I knew about the Point-to-Money system fine.

There is no difference, and even if there is, it's too hard to see and therefore pointless.

They both look shiny and spiffy. If your looking for a reason to buy one and not the other, use the conclusion I came too. The 360 is effectively the same as the PS3, but cheaper.

People can throw numbers at me all they want, and rant about the PS3's Blu-Ray player, but I play a game to enjoy it. They both allow me to do that, it's just by some chance one is cheaper than the other.

Dude, when you don't compare them, aka just buy one and play a game on it, it doesn't matter.
It isn't like on of them is a last-generation console, they're both from this generation, so you MAY see the graphical differences in comparison shots, but while playing, it doesn't matter even one bit.

There isnt much diffrence, it just used by fan-boys to claim they have the better console.

Buy a PC, then you can spit on console gaming peasa...
I mean, you can turn it on planning to play a game, then get sidetracked by three billion other things and come back several hours later only to ask "What did I do with all that time?".
Oh, sorry. I meant play games and complain about how PC gaming is dying, as it has been for twenty years!
Oh wait, I actually mean get accused of having to pay thousands for a good gaming PC (Actually, after all the console paraphernalia and buying a good TV, they're pretty similar), and having no games to play on it (You know, as that twenty year old back catalogue of still playable games doesn't exist) as gamesradar said, and they must be right, I must be imagining the pile of cash I still have and my cupboard of old games.
