Anyone considering buying one?

I bought one, after waiting months after release, then have not played it [:D]

Am I correct in that there is still, well over a year later, no rally game out?

I've already got one. Sitting next to my PS3 that I said I wouldn't get until the price came down [:$]

So,the BIG question...which is best? 

I'd say the PS3. With an HDMI output its much easier to connect HD than the x-box, and the games are comparable. I think that once you give it 6 months or so for the game designers to get to grips with it it will blow the 360 out of the water. Add the sixaxis controller to that (No direction buttons, you move the controller instead [:D]) which is extremely hard but great fun then theres no contest IMHO.

Although against that the 360 is now selling some of the older games for £25 which, some of which are not on the PS3 yet and will be £40-£50 when they are, and its half the price of the PS3 so its still a good buy.

The PS3 does also have the fact that its a blue ray DVD player. Don't know how much better this is over a normal DVD as I haven't used it. Looked at getting one today to see but a film that has been out for a couple of years and costs about £7 or so now, is £25 so I'll be waiting for prices to come down before I try it.
