PLEASE IGNORE MY USERNAME I WAS STUPID WHEN I MADE IT. Now my question is should i get a ps3?? I have been thinking about trading in my 360 for a ps3 because i have felt that maybe the ps3 will have better games eventually and the 360 will get stabbed in the back. My friend who owns both told me to stick with the 360 but i have been thinking about buying a ps3 for a while. Now i have just a few questions. Is the online play bad is it as good as live?? Do a lot of people use headsets?? Does the ps3 brake as many times as the 360?? Now when you read this post PLEASE ignore my name

Ps3 has good online, people do use mics, but not effectively they just spam it with swears/noises, and no my ps3 hasnt broke on me.

Btw if your playing online and ur friends mostly have 360's stick to the 360 but if ur mates have ps3 then get a ps3.

It's alright if you like Xbox. You can like all of the consoles. I see why you do want people to ignore your name though, you don't want people to think that you are one of those trolls who wants people to convince them to get a console tht they are inclined not to get. It's cool though, we know that you are actually serious about it.

If I were you, I would keep the 360 for a little bit longer until some more games come out. If you want to trade it in right now and get games like warhawk, then thats cool. A lot of people on games like warhawk have mics online, because that game comes with a mic. In other games, a lot of people will have mics, but there will always be a select few who talk the most. As for hardware reliability, the PS3 will probably never break down. I've never heard of any PS3s having major problems. The online play is a little unique. Right now it is considered on par with live because it is free, but it has a little bit less features. When home is released, it will be much better, though.

What I like about the ps3 online community moreso than other online ones, especially pc, is that we tend to be older and more mature :) There are lots of young kids granted, but when I've played online, the number of games where a teenager who hasn't hit puberty yet is swearing and running his mouth have been few and far between. Sure you can just mute them, but still, haha There are some great deals on ps3 right now, so it's tempting. You should try to find a 60gb model cuz that seems to be the best of the bunch so far. Next year will bring a plethora of great games for us gamers. It's a good time to be a ps3 owner...heck it's ALWAYS a good time to be a ps3 owner! :D

PS3 Will neva break, so long as you don't chuck it down the stairs or somthing. As for online, not much to choose between the two apart from ps3 online is free! Also games at the moment on both systems are aboutequal, but the ps3has more potnetial as it's more powerful that the 360 both in processing and graphics,so yeah, ps3 IMO is a much smarter investment of time and money.
