PS3 Or X-Box 360?

**Go_Oilers_Go** · 11-28-2007, 08:29 PM

And don't give me reasons like "One system has better games than the other." So I guess I'd more prefer opinions on graphics, game play, etc.

What's a console without good games?

Xbox 360 IMO. Graphics seems the same to me compared to the PS3, and gameplay depends on the game itself. Also cheaper than the PS3.

If you like FPS games and lots of online play go with the 360. Otherwise go with the PS3

**Squeek** · 11-28-2007, 08:37 PM

They play the same, they have similar games, and they have similar problems.

One costs less and has better online support.

ShAiOnEi · 11-28-2007, 08:39 PM

Playstation 3

Meh... It makes more sense to just save up and buy a superb computer...

360

PS3 fails

otherwise get a Wii

That's the best

**gabgabo** · 11-28-2007, 10:08 PM

I'd go for PlayStation 3 for the very nice graphics.

**lumphoboextreme** · 11-28-2007, 10:10 PM

360 for sure.

zidart · 11-28-2007, 10:37 PM

i say both.
but right now the xbox-360 has more games than the ps3.
but you have to pay the on-line support of the 360 and the ps3 has a browser.....
so it depends if you're willing to pay for XBOX live then 360 is the best. if not then the
ps3 is the best if you already have a high number of exclusives on your mind... the rest is just games that both consoles share like call of duty 4 and assasin's creed, it really just depends of the franchise or games that youl like (if you like god of war/final fantasy/ratchet and clank the ps3. if you like halo/eternal sonata/ mass effect then the 360)
though in my personal opinion the wii is my favorite console

l2awr · 11-29-2007, 01:27 AM

Honestly I think the best option is xbox 360. Im sure in the future ps3 will be a very nice system to have as well.

As flame worthy as this topic is, I'm glad people are acting civilized.

Xbox 360

+ Unified, Stable Online Service
+ Greater Number of Exclusives
+ Next Gen Graphics
+ Graphically almost on par with the PS3

- Online Service is not free
- Hardware Issues
- Many Exclusives on PC or PS3 in future
- Alot of FPS
- Apparently, Microsoft Customer Service is horrendous

PS3

+ Free Online Service
+ Cheapest Bluray player on market
+ Many well known exclusives on the way

- Most expensive of all next gen consoles
- Small list of exclusives now playable (at the moment)
- Must make do with rumble-less SIXAXIS until the Dual Shock 3 next year

It's really up to you. Considering if you have a decent PC, you should be able to play alot of the 360's exclusives as well as the PS3's ports. Now, many developers now understand the need to release the PS3 version of multi-platform games first in order to reduce the number of problems that come up when porting the game over to another console. Honestly, had it not been for the faulty hardware and money to add things such as XBL and a HD, I would have bought a 360. Instead I'll just get a PS3 and Wii.

Cj_leonine · 11-29-2007, 09:26 AM

PSX60?

KZS · 11-29-2007, 10:00 AM

360 is actually worth your money.

MalReynolds · 11-29-2007, 11:53 AM

I'd go for the PS3, mainly for the reasons Chromer listed. Either one you choose, you're going to get getting a fairly good system. I wouldn't say one is vastly superior to the other or anything.

Aras · 11-29-2007, 01:30 PM

Talking about cheapness and promotions.. 360 is better than PS3 and mainly the exclusives that anyone might want for the PS3 are now on the 360, except FFXIII .....

**Kekeb** · 11-29-2007, 08:43 PM

I prefer the computer over the both, but if I have to chose one I would say the 360. Computer to console gaming is pretty cool, I also like the media center.
