xbox 360 cost more since there 300$ then you pay for tax wich is 21$ then pay for xbox live wich is 60$ dollars so its all 381$ really. Then ps3 is 250$ tax 17$ all in all ps3 s price is 267$ compared to xbox 360 wich is about 381$. savings if you buy a ps3 are about 100$ based on system price. hope thats helpful.
