Buy PS3 so you I can race you in Midnight Club, or Powerbomb you in SVR 09


I'd say PS3 because, It is expensive. (Hear me out)
Should you decide you dont like it, when you trade it in (all be it lower money) you should still be able to buy an Xbox.

This is a service I provide here. I demand mod powers lool

False!

360 has better graphics, extremely better games including 360 exclusive games and ex-PS3 exclusive, and if you treat the system right the 360 is just the same.

Here we go again with the wars. PS3 and 360 are the same both of them rip you have. They both nearly have the same games and both have a lot of crap games for them.

Have to agree there, PS3/360 are basically made up of the same games, only a few exculsives for each system

FALSE, nah your false, the 360 holds the PS3 back, FACT, its very simple to programe games for the shitebox than it is for the PS3 if time was spent on every game for the PS3 it would look tonnes better on the PS3 than the shitebox, example MGS4, if/when that get ported the graphics will suck compared to the PS3's now that is a bloody fact.

Better games? if your on about Halo and Gears I'm not interested, infact their the only games I hear of when people talk about the 360 and they are far to overated, Gears 2 is far to powerful for the 360 to handle so they had to dumb it down, that wouldn't happen with the PS3, so maybe next time make Gears an exclusive to PS3.

PS3 sales are up and are rising, peoples confidence in the shitebox and in MS seem to be fading, the fact Sony beat Nintendo at their own game with LBP and this years and next great line up of games for the PS3 make the PS3 worth every penny.

It's not really a war, he was asking for people's opinions because he was trying to decide between them. Everyone gave valid reasons for whichever console they thought was better.

Well heres your choices~

Nintendo Wii.
Great console and has a lot of fun games.
Great for parties etc.

Unfortunatly, its gaming line up isnt excatly the best
Its a step below the PS1 as it cant even play a CD (yet it can go on the internet)


Xbox 360.
Amazing Graphics (Same as PS3 / Better / Worse. Debateable)
Awesome line up of games

Known to have faults
Pay to play online


PS3.
Same as graphics line for Xbox
Line up that is worse than Xbox (Although it has been out what 3 years more?)

VERY expensive
40 GB hasnt got backwards compatibility nor memory card (SD etc.) slots


Its up to you. I would say PS3, I had the money to get either one at a stage, but I went for PS3 and I havent looked back :)

^ PS3 is like $100 more. It has a huge HDD. Same as 360 Elite.

PS3=Blu Ray=Better graphics logically. Blu Ray is made to have an amazing picture. PS3 has better games.

Resistance 2
LittleBigPlanet
Socom
Warhawk
Gran Turismo
MAG
Home (Free)

2-3 are award winners, LittleBigPlanet and Resistance 2 have gone gold BEFORE release, 360 has NOTHING like LBP, Warhawk or MAG. 360 has Halo and Gears of War. Killing Aliens gets old after 5 games (3 Halo, 2 GoW). How does 360 have better exclusives?

For some reason, and this is the totally honest truth here

When my mate had his 360, all there ever was, was team killers. Everywhere, they where like aids
Now I have the PS3, I have yet to come across a single team killer. I have throughly enjoyed the majority of my games online.

And I didnt know that Socom was exclusive lol...

360 has aliens and PS3 has armys we all have the same shit. Just buy any of them but what ever you do don't just a system for its graphics. Just the games you like. Other then that this console board is pretty much shit because its just people bitching about consoles. Just think about it your bitching about a piece of hardware which can genarates pixels to your HD TV. Stupid really. Well maybe the console board will improve one day but i don't bet my money. Console boards was better on proboards.

Too much console wars.

Yeah really. It all comes down to what you like but i honestly think PS3 has a wide selection of great games. Not just one category. I respect most of your opinions.

Have you not heard about Gear2 being to powerful then? guess not :rolleyes: there was lots of 360 users complaining because they think that the graphics will suffer when dumb it down, so to speak.

Its not fanboy its opinions and I happen to prefer and think the PS3 is the better console, fanboy? nope just opinions if you wanted fanboy I can go on and on about all the problems the 360 has and how MS misleads customers in adverts ect...I can go on and on but I'm not.

Also Banjo-Kazooie 3, Fable 2, and Ninja Gaiden 2 are also exclusives you can talk about...
Lost Odyssey wasn't that bad either.
