Xbox 360 isnt very pretty, but it has many things going for it.

Your title says PSP or 360, The PSP is a handheld and is ou now, the 360 is a console and not out for a long time.

IMO, it will be good. But I cant compare to sony or N yet.

X box fell behind of the game right from the start this is just my 2 cents. Ok first comes playstation, then X box, Playstation 2 then PSP the answer x box has to the PSP is another at home system????? What the hell thats not right. Why wouldn't x box come out with something to match the PSP instead of another stupid home system. But then sony is like hm idiots at x box we will show them. Now they are making playstation 3. So there for playstation is already like 4-2 on x box LOL
