For the first time in the history of the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 console wars, gamers have a chance to pay the same cash for very similar hardware.
For $299 a happy gamer can land themselves a PS3 Slim or an Xbox 360 Elite. Let’s go to the numbers to see how they compare.
| PS3 Slim | Xbox 360 Elite | |
| Price | $299 | $299 |
| Color | Black | Black |
| Hard Disk Size | 120GB | 120GB |
| USB Ports | 2 | 3 |

| Disc Drive | Blu-ray/DVD/CD | DVD/CD |
| HDMI | Yes, no cable included | Yes, no cable included |

Looking at just the hardware the PS3 Slim seems to win the match-up offering both built-in WiFi support and a Blu-ray player for the same price as the Xbox 360 Elite, which has neither but does include backwards compatibility.
