PS3 VS. 360 Round 2

[Alan®]

Ok I now have both and so far other than MGS4 and GT5 there is nothing special about it.

Things I don't like about PS3:
Can't listen to Music during game
Some games require separate accounts to play online :thinking:
Online play gets really laggy really quick
Cost of Add ons is ridiculously high compared to 360
Can't have private chat's and do other things like play games surf the web


Things I don't like about 360:
Can only Either stream Music or Rip music off of a CD
Lack of motion sensor controllers

My overall impression of the PS3 is that it seems like Sony took all the good things about the other systems and then kind of IDK half assed it. It's not a bad system but as others have said the online play on PS3 really isn't a comparisson to 360

Do you have a ps3? I private chat with my clan all the time and I surf the web too.

Yea I do. I got it like a month ago but really havent had much time to mess with it. As far as I can tell though you also can't play games and private chat either.

[alpine_aw11]

Oh god...this is gonna end up going nowhere when the 360 fanboys jump in.

[Alan®]

Honestly right now I still think 360>PS3.

Depends on how you look at it really, it's not an argument worth having. Personally I choose PS3. MSG4, Socom 4, GTA5, and GTA4 are the only games I'm really into/looking forward to, and I really don't like Halo or Gears of War which is what every dumbass 360 owner uses as an argument because they don't realize not everyone blew their load on Halo 3. You break it down to the actual system, which creates a respectable argument. The ps3 just has more of what I want with Blu-ray and the much better game selection, but again this is all imo.

There are a lot of dumb 360 owners. I don;t really understand the big Halo craze the game wasn't that great. GOW was entertaining and I'll probably get the 2nd one but you really can't compare either of those to MGS simply because there is so much history in that game. PS3's game selection is damn near IDENTICAL to 360's with the exception of MGS, GT, and Soccom. I went and got COD4 for PS3 today just for the hell of it and am kind of regretting it. I almost want to go do prestige all over again on my 360 because the PS3 left such a sour taste in my mouth.

Exactly, but the games 360 doesn't/won't have would make it pretty much pointless for me to buy one. The selection is close, but if I bought a 360 I would just be pissed as **** that I couldn't have those games because those are the only ones I'm really interested in other than GTA4.

[SiLkY_JohnSon]

360>ps3 totally agree

[Alan®]

I guess at this point what it comes down to is who has the better exclusives and in that war PS3>360.

[OneSlow5pt0]

so far 360 > PS3

cause it all comes down to games and 360's 1st part games have been amazing,plus xbox live,is one of the greatest things to happen to gaming

now,i had a PS2 and loved Socom 1 and 2,still think thier the best online games ever,and cant wait to get my hands on the new one

but in the end a very tight race between PS3 and 360,it means us the gamers..win =]

[EmminoDaGreat]

ps3 pisses me off due to lack of games, but the updates they make you download seem to be making it better during online play...

[sshonda2004]

LOL aint that the truth, anyways ps3>360 all day, eventually when its all said and done the ps3 will prevail.
Oh god...this is gonna end up going nowhere when the 360 fanboys jump in.

[Turbo Terrance]

360 WINS THIS ROUND.........AGAIN.......

[VQ35 Star]

Ive owned a 360 a PS3 and a Wii

I currently own a Wii and 360.

I love the 360, I love XBL, and I love the controller.


Long live 360.

Things I don't like about PS3:
Can't listen to Music during game yes you can
Some games require separate accounts to play online :thinking: what game only mgs4 as I recall and that by design
Online play gets really laggy really quick mine hasn'tsince I have had it.
Cost of Add ons is ridiculously high compared to 360 you pay for xbox live.
Can't have private chat's and do other things like play games surf the web yes you can

It's not a bad system but as others have said the online play on PS3 really isn't a comparisson to 360ps3 is 10x better and I have both systems and if you full use the ps3 capabilites you won't have a problem

[1000cckiller]

also lets not get on the 360 epic system failures. How they always seem to break down and have to be fix, and how if you move the system while sumthings playing it will burn the disc.

1. I heard the older systems are failing. Ive owned 2 360s in the past and none have broken.


2. Why are you moving your system while playing something? lol

[Nemesis]

Btw, XBL is only 7.99 a MONTH! Way more people are on it, and its awesome.

I paid double that for WoW a month. Im saving money now :) PSN is :gay:

**runs again**george you are such a hater, I also have friends who have had to send their new gen 360s back. Also with programmers no using the ps3 to create games, the xbox can slide down the ail and crack. Sony 4 life sucka.

Id rather have it fixed every 2 yrs than have to wait 7 months between games before something worth a sh!t comes out for it :lmfao:

*runs*i wouldn't
because you wait damn near 3 months for it to come back. While you are waiting I will be playing my ps3. :crazy: :tongue1:

[SlowsterCivy]

I have a XBox 360, Wii, XBox, Ps2. And some even older systems.

I prefer the XBox 360 for the game choices.
I'd prefer the PS3 for the Blu-ray technology.

My XBox 360 had the 3 red rings of death. Sent it to Microsoft. Have not had a problem with it since. But doesn't mean I still don't get nervous when playing it. I haven't even played my Xbox 360 since I got my Nintendo Wii. Nintendo Wii is more girl friendly. :)

[Sport1.3]

just buy 2 360's, so while one is in repair the other can be used :D

Sounds like the Jaguar Joke, buy 2, one stays in the shop while one stays at home

[eViLMunkey]

Actually I can say I like the PS3 over the 360. I own both systems therefore not biased due to only playing a system once on a horrible game or say it sucks due to a$$ kicking online. The only thing I like on the 360 is the game selection, but that's due to Microsoft already having contracts w/ game companies vs. SONY is having to re-assign companies due to the BLURAY technology. But I'll be back on 360 when Gears of War 2 drops... Also Halo 3 is horrible I still think 2 was much better gameplay wise but do have to give them for the Online story mode.

Also at times the PSN game servers can be laggy mainly on COD4 I have rarely had any lag issues on R6V2, Bad COmpany, or RFOM.. also you can message while in game (don't recommend it you'll get killed) and I've never had to make a separate account for any games on the PSN. Only reason why I have 5 accounts is because I like jumping on other names to mess w/ friends. 360 does need to change over to free online, sorry but we already pay enough to be connected to the internet why pay extra to play games online when you've already funded them through games and purchasing their system (IMO!)

:lmfao: so true

i dont care if it red lights, i still love my xbox <3

Yeah Nothing beats free.99

[Alan®]

ps3 is 10x better and I have both systems and if you full use the ps3 capabilites you won't have a problem
Ok if you can tell me how to listen to my music while I play a game then I wil......well we'll figure it out later lol.

[VQ35 Star]

Or you can mod your xbox360 with extra fans on the case so it doesn't fail. Just takes some PC fans and some soldering, and problem is fixed (granted your warranty is thrown out)

Also, lol. Xbox360 controls IMO are very huge and ugly. BUT hehehe you can mod a ps3 controller to work on the xbox 360 :)

saw that already^^

[Lucky DAWG]

I really don't understand why people want to have all of this super fast web access on their fridge, their toilet, their video games, their phone.



Do you not have a computer?



I'm sure its 10 ft from your ps3 / xbox. so you can go surf whenever u want.



I'll take the better graphics and blu-ray player please

[egb18c5]

ps3>360 360 has out of date hardware...

[JR VQ 30 de]

tell me, how does it feel to pay $60 a game everytime? ps3 has no modchip out. :( + your going to need a bluray burner.

you have to remember the 360 has been out longer than the ps3 and second brand games for the 360 are the same price so wtf r u talking about

i sold my 360 for the 40gb ps3 and i'm satisfied.

I'm talking about DLing free games and being able to play it on my 360, even before the game is released. Oh and xbox live works for cracked games also, and having free xbox live is also great.

That is what I'm talking about.

I think the capabilities of the systems and whether or not you are a criminal are two seperate topics. :lmfao:

[VQ35 Star]

lol
who says I was talking about myself? :ninja:
Oh and this is a ps3 vs 360 war, anything goes. :taun:

lol this is true.

i'm convinced some nerds out there would literally kill the other system's fanboy to prove a point

[VQ35 Star]

hahahhaha, no doubt.
It's really just personal preference.
That and a lot of people are real sensitive and like to stick up for what they bought.

[Turbo2L]

Yea, you never see any PS3s breaking.....because noone has any games to play on them. ;) I'm sure a 360 wouldn't get the RROD if you just watched movies on it.

[Ran]

I've had both systems and I prefer my PS3 over my previous 360. The layout of XBOX Live is very nice, but having PSN be free helps me get past the layout issues. Not much to complain about in terms of titles since the PS3 is now moving along at full speed. My 80GB is backwards compatible so being able to replace my older PS2 without losing my titles was a definite plus. The Blu-Ray player is a nice touch as well.

Also, I HATE the XBOX controllers. One thing Sony definitely did right was keep the classic controller styling.

you said ps3 game were 60 bucks and i said 360 games are the same price

[VQ35 Star]

ok? Then why quote me when I was talking about free games?

[alpine_aw11]

The idiots that are still arguing about ps3 having no games make me laugh. It's about quality, not quantity 360 nutswingers.

[VQ35 Star]

Seems to me that your nutswinging on the ps3.

[alpine_aw11]

Understandable. All the 360 fanboys I've dealt with have turned me into an *******. I actually like both, wouldn't mind having a 360 at all. It's just the ps3 exclusives are the only games I'm really into with the exception of gta4. Dead Rising was fun as hell though.

[Paree4g63]

In my opinion from all the research I've done.....

The Ps3 is the FUTURE in gaming!
It might be weak in online features but it has a very strong blu-ray dvd player which outclasses HD quality & quantity. In 2009(next year), all the good games are finally coming out! You're talking about games I am gonna get and I'm talking about HIT GAMES!!! Examples are Resident Evil 5, Final Fantasy Versus XIII & Final Fantasy XIII, Gran Turismo 5 and lastly Street Fighter IV!!! There are more games coming out that are good but those are the main ones that'll make 2009 best games of the year. Basically you need a bit more money to spend compared to the xbox360 to fully utilize one...The prices you pay for the ps3 is still incredible to how much and how long it took to make the ps3. Think about it...Sony FTW!

Xbox360
It's also a great system and HAS better online capabilities...But the ps3 has better graphics in general. There are alot of gaming choices for this system but I don't believe this system will be the future in gaming. Personally, there aren't any good games on this system for me to buy a console and buy some games.. Usually I only go for the top of the line and in my preference; the ps3 still owns in games & performance.

ps3 wins!! because it all depends on your preferences and the reason why the ps3 wins is because all I really care about is the games that are out or coming out and the performance overall in graphics and dvd playback. :cheers:

It is the future....and Sony will always rock my socks

[VQ35 Star]

xbox360 is dramatically dropping their prices. If ps3 doesn't budge their price they are going to loose.

MS is following Ninty and Sony's strategy for killing the saturn. The saturn was too expensive to produce, so Ninty and Sony lowered the price of their systems so low that Sega couldnt afford to equal the price point. Thus killing off the Saturn in like 97.

It will be interesting to see how Sony keeps gamers interested in buying a console with less games for more money.

The ps3 will have to drop prices before the holidays season to stay up and not look over priced, like it did when it launched. But sony lowering the ps3 price hurts stand alone blu-ray players and so risks killing any sales they might get.
