Definatly xbox. Ps3 has a terrible games selection apart from a small selection of games.
Xbox has far better exclusives and is better fot online gaming and if i want to go on the internet il use my laptop. As a console xbox is much superior for gaming.

And most ppl dont mind having to pay for gold, especially with the great games on offer



Posted by deathfromabove1 on 06-04-2009 at18:22:

  thats

thats a good call i got ps3 but most of my m8s have xbox

so i think ps3

Posted by AudatiousTitan on 06-04-2009 at18:25:

Posted by LightKnight on 06-04-2009 at18:27:

 

Tbh I Think They Are The Same But I Prefer The Ps3 Becuse There Are Games U Can Onli Get For Ps3 And Games You Can Only Get For Xbox And The Problem Is With Xbox Is Wat If You Cart Afford Xbox Live [Gold] Then The Ps3 Is Better And If U Gt A Ps3 If You Can Afford It Have Both Like Me Lol You never Get Bored Plus When The Ps3 Or Xbox Is Updating U Can Go On The Other Lol

1. XBOX started as a 'Media console', meant for the entire house, just kus the ps3 is better you have compleatly thrown all that away ¬_¬

- Dying comment, 360 has hardly any exclusives i can think of (and i include the PC as a gaming machine[THE gaming machine])

3. No better exclusives, and the online gameplay is ONLY better for the more ppl. PS3 speed has been buffed up so much recently that if anything, its better now Tongue

4. As a gamer, i have and love both, but i totaly prefer the PS3 because


I dont think its without a down side though, the 360's AA is about a million times better. PS3 games take to long to build it significantly well into each game!

Sorry, Xbox bloody wrecks the PS3 anyday, everyone knows that Xbox 360 is better for online gaming, and the community is friendly, and also TALKS!!! (most of the time, and sorry, most of the americans i've seen are total a-holes) Unlike when i saw PS3 (i don't know if the PS3 has a talking community anymore, but what the hell, i'm a xbox slave XD)

XBOX FTW!!!



Posted by OTNC on 06-04-2009 at23:44:

 

Xbox is great, but i have lost my faith in the halo series.

Great selection of games, controller feels much nicer, sits in hand well.


However, this is all personnal preference, theyre practically the same. Internet access as audatious said, can be aquired via a computer. Big Grin

Heh, who said PS3 was more advanced

Are u serious?

Halo 3
Halo 3: ODST
Halo Wars
Gears of War 2
Saints Row (1 and 2)
Infinite Undiscovery
Star Ocean: The Last Hope
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
Crackdown
Lost Odyssey
Dead Rising
Dead or Alive 4
Ninja Gaiden 2
Fable II

U kno u cant come up with a list of ps3 exclusives better than this Tongue

Xbox came along and crushed sony fan boy dreams by stealing ps3 exclusives such as the final fantasy series and the new metal gear coming to xbox 360

Did u not read the last bit?

Halo 3 - PC
Halo 3: ODST - Not released?
Halo Wars - Exclusive -- HOPE to god it will be ported to PC Smile
Gears of War 2 - Exclusive
Saints Row (1 and 2) - 1 = CRAP AND their both on PC
Infinite Undiscovery - Never heard of it
Star Ocean: The Last Hope - Exclusive
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Splinter cell sucks
Crackdown - Exclusive for start, talk of conversion
Lost Odyssey - Exlusive
Dead Rising - Exlusive, but DR2 is on the pc Big Grin
Dead or Alive 4 - Exlusive (so sad)
Ninja Gaiden 2 - Sucks
Fable II - Exlusive (BEST example imo, the game is pure awsome!)

PS3 exlusives

SOCOM: Confrontation
Time Crisis 4
The Last Guardian
Valkyria Chronicles
Fifth Phantom Saga
God Of War III
Killzone 2
Tears to Tiara (Just a remake though)
Final Fantasy Versus XIII
MAG (google this 1, looks great! kinda do wish it Was games for windows lol)
Ni-Oh
Siren: Blood Curse (LOOKS KOOL)
Warhawk



Posted by AudatiousTitan on 06-05-2009 at00:53:

 

ff 13 versus is comming to xbox Tongue

and the only game im jelous of there is Valkyria Chronicles, Would be the only reason id get a ps3 along with mgs.

For gaming xbox is much better and u kno it Tongue

And i said console, not machine Tongue



Posted by DemonDude2 on 06-05-2009 at01:02:

 

You cant not compare them together anymore. They arnt JUST consoles, they use keyboards and run other applications now = machine. The day they stopped calling them consoles and started calling them home media systems was a loong time ago. Expecially considering the PC is now combatable with the boxs best games! Smile

PS3 can even run vista lol Smile (dont know why tho.. waste if u ask me)

You will like MAG, Tears to Tiara definatly and mayve Ni-Oh... considering were all playing blood wars you most likely will like siren too Smile



Posted by AudatiousTitan on 06-05-2009 at01:12:

 

hmm, xbox still owns tho Tongue

and everything is a media center these days, was just pointing out that for gaming xbox far surpasses ps3 Happy

I would have a ps3 now but there just arent enough good games for it yet



Posted by Raxis on 06-05-2009 at01:44:

 

PS3.

This debate constantl;y goes on... but actually for gaming I think the PS3 outstrips the xbox, I also prefer the PS3 controller. Thus for me the PS3 is ideal...

DAMN YOU GUYS GETTING YODA FREE!

Ultimately you go for what you like though.

Eventually there will be one super conole with the power of both...



Posted by AudatiousTitan on 06-05-2009 at02:10:

 

How so? the reason xbox is better for gaming is because it has better games...and alot more of them. Sony where very slow off the mark, il eventually get a ps3 but not until it has more good games



Posted by Raxis on 06-05-2009 at02:13:

 

I agree the game selection is poor overall. but that's not to say it doesn't have it's good titles.

Also I still love my PS1 games, so it was an obvious choice for me

LightKnight one more warning and you're gone, so be a little more careful.

This discussion is about PS3 VS Xbox360, not PS1



Posted by DemonDude2 on 06-05-2009 at06:45:

 

Really? I think there is a good selection of games on the PS3!

Disgea 3 is another good game i left out! Smile

I already said that popeye lol

However that means PS3 has no cons.... though I can think of two

Cost of the console

Fallout 3 isnt as good on PS3



Posted by LightKnight on 06-05-2009 at14:06:

 

Well I Edited That Out Since Use Dont Think It Was A Problem Smile



Posted by Knightroad on 06-05-2009 at17:31:

 

As an owner of both a 360 elite and PS3;
No comp really... PS3 owns xbox 360
Infact PS1 owns the 360

The only reason XBox/360 is cheap is because they use crap stuff to put them together. hence why they over heat and get ring of death so easy. im on my 4th or 5th now, still on my first PS3 thou... Ring of death is bassicly cheap glue getting to hot and becomeing unstuck.

Halo is the ONLY good thing about xbox. If Halo became avalible for PS3, xbox would go out of buissness.



Posted by God_Like_Friend on 06-05-2009 at17:35:

 

PS3 has it's problems (ie. bluetooth won't connect, or the controllers) but it ALWAYS works eventually. From playing an Xbox for only 3 nights I encountered problems.

Not just halo, but its true that if they lost halo, 360 would lose a lot of fans! Smile

NOT TRUE! Halo is ONE, of the few godly things made by the xbox gods, but i've gotta say, if halo came out for PS3, i would quit xbox, (which is the the same as quitting life for me XD)

EDIT: Demondude, your inbox is bloody full, delete something XD



Posted by DeathMagick on 06-06-2009 at15:56:

 

The ps3 is better in terms of hardware and that is it, the 360 destroys it in terms of software, 360 has more and better games. Fps is a lot better on 360 and so are western rpgs, the 360 has better backwards compatability. As a whole the xbox is better and its units sold reflects that. It is beating the ps3 in terms of sales aswell. The 360 has better exclusives and its online is infinately better

WOW, u couldnt be more wrong

Can someone actually post reasons y the ps3 is better without mentioning be able to surf the net?

Alot of publishers dont want to make games for the ps3 because it is notoriously hard to make games for

ps, getting the console to work doesnt count as a reason Tongue



Posted by God_Like_Friend on 06-06-2009 at19:05:

 

Because Sony is a name you know and trust. You ever used a Microsoft PC...

A mod should be able to browse a thread better than this Roll Eyes
The SECOND post lists pros and cons? lol



Posted by AudatiousTitan on 06-06-2009 at21:34:

 

Pretty much all the things in that list apply to xbox aswell



Posted by Ba_al on 06-07-2009 at00:15:

 

well i have both 360 and ps3

i would be more inclined to go ps3(jst because like noob god said..sony is a name u can trust).......

but in all fairness their both the same in my opinion

in terms of graphics both consoles have games with amazing graphics and others with mediocore graphics...it just depends on the examples u pick........

To be honest, right now as you say bnoht consoles are the same.
