^^ wow are u kidding me?
please GTFO!
xbox360 is better as a game console, people like u just say that ps3 is better cus it has useless blue ray, internet etc....more useless stuff.
When i bought xbox 360, i bought a gaming console for gaming, i wasnt looking for a movie player or a internet provider.
They say ps3 = The FUTURE,
Blue ray isn't useless; it's the latest technology. What's better?
Ps3 is more professional over VS xbox360(white, green and looks like one of those vtech educational gaming consoles i bought for my nephew awhile back).
Sony>Microsoft ALL DAY EVERYDAY,
You said you bought the xbox360 because it's a gaming console? Well, for alittle more then what you paid, you could've had a bad ass movie player AND a internet provider AND a bad ass gaming console that has way more potential in memory storage(blue ray) and Top HIT GAMES that will soon come out.
Also, you can upgrade ps3 harddrives to any suitable laptop Harddrive you can find for it.
I've got both the xbox360 & the ps3 in my home; so far the ps3 ownss,
the ps3 might be pricey but you do get what you pay for. Blue ray is in it too and the price for a ps3 is $399 nowadays. A blue ray dvd player at a Walmart store is more than half the price of a ps3. You can get the cheapest blue ray dvd player for about $130 but it ain't no Sony though.
By the time our kidds grow up, the psX will be out and they'll be running around with high tech goggles, holograms, etc.

my
dude its a gaming console if i wanted to surf the web i would buy a computer if i wanted to watch movies i'd buy a nice home theatre... its a GAMING CONSOLE.
as far as gaming 360 by far - game selection is better, shit tons of downloadable content, and microsoft owns online gaming which is what hardcore gamers are about.
ps. you can put just about any size harddrive in a 360 i think they installed all the way up to 2TB b/c that was the reading limit
hehe, ps3 FTMFW!!! Buying a xbox360/ps3 IS like buying a computer! Both systems do what computers do but PC gaming pawns any gaming console regardless if you have a well equipped system that is. Also, I remember reading reviews of IGN.COM saying the ps3 - the future. Of course I know it's a gaming console but if you already have a home speaker system and a nice tv plus the ps3 blue ray; life can't get any better. If you have both gaming consoles, you've got it made man. My ps3 is hooked up to a speaker system that was used by my ps2 and it sounds bad ass. All I need now is a HDTV but it's still super clear regardless. Anyways, the point is I'm with Sony all the way. Psone,Ps2,Ps3 Pawns and still does.
P.S Harddrives can be upgraded to however much you wanna spend up to. I think 80gb is good enough for now.
future? lol way debateable... professional... WTF really?

I was. And the "gaming" i got from it was better as well. My PS3 doesn't collect dust in the way my 360 did.
I would say 360, except it seems like every one of them I have had has a habit of freezing in games. Particularly sports games. I've went through 3 and they always do... Oh well, I'll see how PS3 is soon lol
XBox 360
The PS3 is WAY over hyped for the bluray.
this is the thing that you and Got Milk?Miss. This has been discussed so many times and I feel like I'm beating a dead horse but, we will go through it again. This year marks the peak of development on the 360. Games will not get any better visually on 360 after this year. The limits have been reached. Hardware for hardware the PS3 is in fact > Than the 360.
Problem is that just about every game has been developed for 360 and then made to work on the PS3. Developers have not figured out the absolute limits of the software for the PS3.
Another thing that got way over hyped. Microsoft's venture with Netflix. They had over 100k DVD's to chose from and they picked the worst 12K. While PS3 offers only ~1K movies online, they are miles better than what Netflix offers online.
I own both so I am trying to be objective here. I play my XBOX more because the online community is miles better than PSN. Not to mention it is easier to travel with and I bounce around the state a lot. My biggest gripe about the PS3 is that the cover is so easily scratched it's not funny.

PS3 FTMFW!
PS3 because of all the things i can do on it.. play games, watch blu ray movies... (we all saw how far hd dvd got.HA!) also browse the internet without leaving the chair and going to my computer or laptop. Also Playstation home is fun and a good way to meet new people. (I have the Beta) It is expensive but if your trying to buy on a budget just get the 40 gb. you can always upgrade hd later.

i have both. i like both just the same.
i use the ps3 more cause online gaming is free. while it is better that it is free, it gives hackers a better chance, since if they get banned, they can just make a new account, but on the other hand, i didnt wanna pay for xbox live, so my xbox is for local playing only.
as far as gaming options, the xbox right now has more games, better games, but like redgt said, it's reached its limit while the ps3 has not.
forza 2 > gt5
O rly? And you've played gt5
It really comes down to personal opinion. If I were you I would look at the games that are out, and coming out for both systems. Both sytems look great, so I don't think you have to worry about that. If you want to spend the extra money and get a ps3 you also get a blu-ray player and you can surf the web. However, some people already have laptops/BR players/etc..
Yes i have. GT5P is nothing to get your panties wet over.O rly? And you've played gt5
Maybe when the real GT5 comes out it will be worth something. Oh and i've been playing GT since GT for PS1. GT4 also was another that wasn't that special.
Agreed. That game is eye candy and nothing more. Boring and soulless. Forza 2 is by far the better racer. Hell, go play Midnight Club LA.
I say PS3 for the Blu-Ray, the backwards compatibility (old version), and the DVD upscaler. Yes, even regular DVD's look better on the PS3. Don't believe me? Watch The Last Samurai on a DVD player then watch it on PS3. HUGE difference in quality.
Also, the PS3's potential is really beginning to shine. I had a chance to play Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2 over the weekend. While Gears of War 2 is a fun game, Resistance 2 is BY FAR the much better looking game. The XBox fanboys are about to lose their game quality debate, and fast.
I find this argument funny coming from you since you say this here, but everywhere else you're all about the online features and little knick-knacks of the 360.
i love features ... this is much like debateing cars... yes i love my heated seats and cup holders in my GTI but if you think i bought it for place for my coffee you are sadly mistaken the car was bought to be BOOSTED to hell and driven. much like my 360 purchased for gaming that's that it is mainly used for. i have a great home theatre already, 2 laptops, and a media server. i've played every console many times...I find this argument funny coming from you since you say this here, but everywhere else you're all about the online features and little knick-knacks of the 360.
most innovative + worst gaming = wii
best looking = ps3
best gaming + best price = 360
library, funcionality, online gaming = far superior then how a game looks. if i wanted to play pretty games i would buy RPG
ps. i still play TFS and CS (most shooter guys know whats up)
I asked if you played GT5 NOT GT5 Prologue...so when you've played both games then you can comment on which is better. As of now, you haven't...
herd
No sig ATM
Soooo just curious? have you guys some how magically time traveled to Christmas 09 and played GT5 and that is what your basing this comment on? Or are you simply judging GT5:Prologue and calling that an accurate representation of GT5? Granted it's called out that it is expanding on the GT5:P game but that was simply a tease of what is to come.herd
Gran Turismo 5 (also known as GT5) is the fifth edition of the Gran Turismo series. Expanding on the Prologue version, it will be the first of the main numbered series to be released for the PlayStation 3. Gran Turismo 5's release date has been confirmed to be Christmas 2009 by SCEE Vice President James Armstrong in an interview with Spanish website El Financiero. He is quoted as saying
"For next year, for southern Europe we are developing a new game thriller, in which the player may be designing their own history, and the new version of Gran Turismo, which will at Christmas."[7]
It has been confirmed that the Top Gear test track will be featured in the game. It will also include damage, day and night cycles, and changing weather conditions. Aswell as an open airfield to test out your car and do your own road tests.
oh
GT5 > FORZA 3
well the tease of what is to come come sucks.
I played Forza 2 for 2 months and never picked it up again.
Now, I have played GT5 almost every day for the past year.
I'll have to disagree with you on that one.
explains why u bought an evo... i keed i keed to each his own..
i own both as well.. ps3=360... PS3+Logitech G25>>>>>>360
aneeL
I have both too.
This what I think.
Ps3 is a soild investment because of blu ray. I use my ps3 all the time for movies and games. has an ok selection of games and free online.
Xbox 360 is really only worth it if you hack it to play backups. Most of the online feature of the xbox 360 is on ps3. Plus if you want Blu-ray then your going to have to buy a blu ray player. But it does have a better selection of games.
xbox for games and ps3 for movies and also ps3 is losing there contract with ea sports
Lsu tigers going # 1 again
not surprised it is far easy to work w/ Microsoft on programming games, companies like Valve are 360/PC developers only.
i do find it funny people who think 360 it at its potential for hardware considering the wii is sitting on last gen hardware
the difference is Wii is not in the battle for looks. they know their graphics suck.not surprised it is far easy to work w/ Microsoft on programming games, companies like Valve are 360/PC developers only.
i do find it funny people who think 360 it at its potential for hardware considering the wii is sitting on last gen hardware
the Wii 2 will solve that problem. we'll see how sony and microsoft will do.
I think you forget we are working on 1 older technology - i'm sure if PS3 was pushed up 1 year in advance you would see many differences including the borrow axis controller technology, larger hard drives, blu ray, etc.
we are also talking about the biggest gaming venture in probably game history... how many people can come out of no where and take on a giant like Sony who has been in the game since the late 80's?
the most expensive ELITE 360 goes new for 260$ online and PS3 is now 399$... sorry but i want to play games specifically shooters 360 is the way to go.
if the GT folks finally had gone a different road from its 4 predecessors, and added damage to the cars, it might've gotten a little bit more attention.
i only watch movies in my ps3 now. dvds do look a lot better.
CS will never die. I need to get back into it.
i'm big into TFS did you play orange box? excellent buy
nope, sure didnt. maybe iw ill pick it.
I will say the 360 so far has the upper hand in terms of gaming titles, along with their Xbox LIVE! - I mean c'mon, one look at Castle Crashers is all you need there
PS3 is coming along though with Home, and the PSN is getting more and more popular. Little Big Planet hopefully should boost things a lot more for them
Wii - to be quite honest, very little games I've played using the damn Wiimote/Nunchuck. Innovative? Yes, but man, doing an FPS like that fucking sucks. Gamecube controllers ftw! Nice downloadable content there too.

To get back to the original poster: What do you want your console to do? What kind of games do you like?
All this will help you narrow it down.
You are trying to decide between the top two consoles on the market. One is excellent for games, and one gives you good games plus blu-ray.
If you are looking for a console that will let you play (most) of the popular games, some exclusives, with good graphics then you shoud get the Xbox.
If you are looking for a console that will let you play (most) of the popular games, some exclusives, with good graphics, plus also want to use your console as a top notch Blu-ray player, then get the PS3.
I got free clear tails with my ride.....
For me personally, I would have no reason to buy a 360. I want to play SOCOM, GTA4, GT5, MGS4, and Madden games. Halo is gay, and no 360 exclusives are that appealing to me. The 360 vs. ps3 argument is gay as fawk. They are both great systems. The ps3, however, does have more potential. It hasn't even been tapped into yet. The 360 has more games, but I don't care. The ps3 has all I will ever want, so that is what I will be buying when the next paycheck rolls in. It's all personal preference.
PS3 because of Gran Turismo 5
Peek-a-boo mofucka what now?!
