Dude u have to go PS3...

Heres Why:

Blue-ray player (Future is all blue-ray, HD is dead)
COD is fun on both consoles but with PS3 u dont have that much of a fan base
Xbox COD players are more competitive
No red rings to worry about
bigger harddrive for a much better system
PS3 is more of an ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM than xbox which is just merely a gaming system
Ive gone through both and still own both, but love the PS3
the graphics of the PS3 are godly compared to Xbox
Much more functionality like connecting ur PSP to the PS3
and a bunch more

Its true that Xbox has more games but PS3 is on the rise while Xbox is on a decline.
Think of it this way PS3 can only get better while Xbox is limited as to what it can do....
with a 360 its always having to pay extra for extra mods (i.e HD player, XBOX live)
Ps3 has free internetz

If u need more info or have questions just PM me lol...i can go on for days

Ps3 = you always play by yourself
360 = mixed play time by yourself and with friends
wii = always play with friends/girlfriend

i used to hate the wii, but i played mario kart for the first time, and it was really fun with a bunch friends.

personally i have the 360 and love the live capabilities.

debatable streaming media is the true future of video no media necessary

COD is fun on both consoles but with PS3 u dont have that much of a fan base

true

Xbox COD players are more competitive

somewhat true

No red rings to worry about

pretty true but i still think its hit or miss just that u only hear the ppl with problems. had mine since launch never had an issue, whereas my wii that i very rarely use has died.

bigger harddrive for a much better system
PS3 is more of an ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM than xbox which is just merely a gaming system

with the exception of the internet and bluray they are both capable of pretty much the same thing

Ive gone through both and still own both, but love the PS3 the graphics of the PS3 are godly compared to Xbox
Much more functionality like connecting ur PSP to the PS3
and a bunch more

opinion

Its true that Xbox has more games but PS3 is on the rise while Xbox is on a decline.

360 outsold ps3 3 to 1 on black friday


Think of it this way PS3 can only get better while Xbox is limited as to what it can do....

opinion

with a 360 its always having to pay extra for extra mods (i.e HD player, XBOX live)

MS just chose the wrong side of the hd war but now offers streaming netflix in HD


Ps3 has free internetz

has a browser correct but its not free internet b/c u have to connect to your LAN first.


If u need more info or have questions just PM me lol...i can go on for days

same here. ask my gf lol jk ( five min is it)
btw im not being a dick iarak im just bored at work i like both systems but learn towads the 360

im leaning towards getting the xbox still... played the ps3 COD4 and owned everyone on pretty much every server i went to... personally im not into just owning people left and right for hours on end, i love a good challenge and dont mind getting my *** handed to me every now and then. the "feel" of the ps3 wasnt really doin it for me also, not sure what it was but i do feel detached from the game play. saw a few other games and thought the grafix were pretty nuts but those games dont interest me much.

i might buy myself a Wii as well... there seem to be a bunch of cool games to play when friends swing through. and this might seem kinna gay but a long *** time ago when it came out on game cube it was pretty fucckkin fun, Animal Crossing was tyte! hahahaa my sister said the one for wii is way better and gets even more involving so that sounds like a cool move in general

i think that later im going to want a blu ray player but now? uhh... not really interested... maybe when EVERY MOVIE is blu ray then it will turn into a "babe, we cant continue being the only people in the world without a blu ray!" . but for now, i just wanna ruin someones KTD ratio

I have all of them.

The ps3 online sux to play games on. Socom was supposed to be awesome but its impossible to hook up on games. But i will give the ps3 Metal Gear, that is the best game ever. But thats it. Other than that its pretty much a blue ray player.

If u love to play online games, then i suggest the xbox 360 with extended warranty. The online is real easy to use and has the largest array of games. The biggest problem is that i'm on my 4th xbox return since it came out. But if u have the warranty, its really not that big of a deal. Its actually the most fun.

The wii i love only when i have a bunch of friends come over. Other than that it collects dust.

so i recommend the xbox 360, if u can handle the red ring of death

If you're gonna get another Xbox360, make sure you pick up the new unit with Jasper chip. It suppose to have gotten rid of the Red Ring.

I challange you one of these days!!!

My old roomate and best friend used to be the number 2 Fifa player in the world (he hasn't played online past 07 I believe though). I can't beat him but I think I'm pretty good.

Remember GT5 is coming on PS3.

I have no TV right now actually, so neither one appeals to me. If I did I'd have a free 360 to play on . . . my friend never uses his.

I voted PS3 btw.

I've got all 3 and i do have to say the ps3 is choice. the getter is the built in wireless and the free online play. The blu-ray is nice too.

i have all 3.. both my ps3 and 360 have broken on me.. had to go back for replacement.

i like the ps3 for blu ray.. games are ok. i have little big planet, valkyria chronicles and metal gear solid 4.. got bored with MGS4 and i haven't really got to play the other 2 much since it just broke and i'm waiting for my replacement

360 has a lot of good JRPGs coming out for it.. which is something i'm into

the wii i play a lot with my girlfriend.. it gets the most playtime out of the 3 so far

Plus on the AC adaptor if they output DC is 150W you've got yourself a Jasper.


I have owned both 360 and PS3, and PS3 is the BIGGEST dissapointment. And this is coming from once-Sony fanboy.
Remember "This is not a game console, this is entertainment system" mentality is what made PS3 boat sink as well as delayed and lost exclusive games to Xbox360. Did you see PS3 sale even in its homeland Japan? Sales figures are abysmal.
BlueRay is overrated. You'll be able to get better BD player for under $150 in near future.
When it comes to games you just can't deny that Xbox360 has the most and the best.

And don't even think about the Wii. It's for kids and girls.
