I love my PS3 and have always firmly believed it is the superior console.
Recently, I have really been enjoying FPS games. (Usually play action/adventure category)
I am pumped for COD6 MW2 just as much as the next person, however here is my dilema.
I am in college and a couple of my close friends have a PS3, in total I have about 8 PSN friends. But since all my friends are now in college (like me) they are busy, as am I. And I haven't been able to catch them online and vice versa.
I'm a proponent of gaming online/offline with friends versus solo sessions, and I think if you are able to play with your friends vs. idiot noobs the game itself is more enjoyable. And thats something I really want to do with MW2. And currently I would have another 5 close long time friends who are advid, and more importantly - frequent gamers, if I were to play on XBL instead of PSN.
I have a younger brother who wants his own console, and I could easily get the 360 for a good long while. And as much as I hate to admit it, paying the 50 bucks for XBL (which is a huge **** monopolistic rip-off) creates a more active online community than PSN. And PSN has no unifying online game (sorry kids, Killzone 2 failed to reach a significant portion of PS3 owners, if I recall there are 1.4 million active online accounts, and less that play weekly..) Where XBL has monsters like GoW, Halo, and MW.. which means more n00bs for me to rape.
So my question is.. Do you think its worth going through all that trouble to enjoy what will most likely be the biggest game of our generation with my friends on XBL...
On top of that, I hate the DS3, and if you disagree, you are in denial. Seriously, I mean, I love the charging and the weight. But those triggers, and the resistance of those analong sticks are just plain horrible. Then again, Xbox controller is like holding a brick that takes duracell.. but it is a better FPS controller.
