Free online. $50 could be money towards a brand new game.

Biggest reason I got a PS3 over the other console, and you know what? For a free online service done this well, I would very well be willing to pay an annual fee for it.

Things I like about it:

  • Internet browser.
  • Text chat room.
  • Free online.
  • Blu ray player (that I never use, but it's a nice option.)

Things I don't like about it:

  • Developers who make crap ports for it.
  • Developers who suck at developing for it.
  • No cross game chat... yet.
  • Internet browser is kinda glitchy sometimes.
  • Doesn't play .mkv files.

Since you asked again....

-Free online. (If you have more than one account on an xbox you have to buy xbox live for each account, if you wanna play on seperate accounts online)

-Built in wi-fi (xbox charges $80 for a wireless adaptor)

-Blu-ray

-Web browser

-Bluetooth controllers (xbox uses batteries or $20 for rechargeable battery pak)

-Exclusives

-More options when buying accessories. When buying hard drives or mics, you can buy basically use any laptop hard drive and any cell phone bluetooth. ( With the xbox, if you want need a new hdd or mic you have to go through Microsoft.)

-Netflix

-Facebook (coming soon)

I used to own a 360.

PRO:

Blu-ray, if you have the right HDTV, you can play games in 3d next year, even the Blu-ray movies in 3d will be played on your ps3 next year,

Blu-ray disk, game always fits on 1 disc

free online

don't need gold account to acces net flix and the other functions

built in wi-fi

in 2010 better exclusives

low noise, nice when you are streaming movies from your laptop to your ps3 onto the TV

with PS3 media server you can stream all movies, even mkv

CONS:

no game cross voice chat(not yet)

multiplatform games sometimes better on xbox 360

PRO or CON

I have both consoles, I like them both, but sometimes I like the ps3 controller and sometimes the xbox controller. The ps3 has a f****** awsome D-pad while the xbox 360 has a crap one, but for FPS has the better lay out for the sticks is the xbox controller. But you can buy a second controller, it's called the SHADOW 6 controller for the ps3 with the lay out of the xbox 360 controller.

Well I think the best part is since I have bought my system. Back like two weeks after it came out the only thing I have had to buy is an extra controller and the games. No wifi, point card, external hddvd drive and whatever MC tries to get it's owners to invest in. It has it all. And they update the things we want if there is enough talk about it. Free online that is actually worth the price. I use my blu-Ray all thr time and it's awesome. Once u watch HD. U won't want anything else.

I own both system "BUT" I must say that I use them for slightly different reasons.....

PS3 is for gaming,free online,multimedia entertainment and has better functions out of the box

360 is for gaming, some the exclusives and great interface features

Overall, both systems are great!!! IMO
