[QUOTE="JonesWs"]who really cares real gamers own both consoles, Both consoles have their advantages and disadvantages i personally like both equallyGrindingAxe

So ever since I sold my PS3 I haven't been a 'real' gamer. Do you realize how stupid that sounds? Listen little dude, I've been playing games for about 24 years now. Me not owning a PS3 does not say how 'real' I am as a gamer. Besides, my essence has no label.

Well i must say little dude that was a big mistake selling that ps3

it all comes down to the games, and everyone has different opinions. personally, i'd love to get my hands on MGS4 and KZ2 however i have no PS3, and im not gonna pay over 500 bucks (that's including the 2 games) just to play the one masterpiece and could-be good game

It's a fantastic piece of hardware. I'm glad to own both the 360 and PS3 so I don't miss out on any great exclusives.

Yeah I'll agree the PS3 has better hardware and is more reliable than the 360.

However life is not that simple. It is also far more expensive and lacking in exlusive software. Whats the point in being better when you're rival is limited the shared software and you have no exlusive software to speak of.

Hardware-wise, its the better console (except for the out-dated controller). Just a pity it doesnt have the software to match...-DrRobotnik-
Pretty much.

Lacking in exclusives? Little Big Planet alone trumps any "exclusive" 360 games I've played. Let alone MGS4, Uncharted and RE2. They say the same about the Wii. No good games, but the games it does have, are freaking awesome. Same applies to the PS3's exclusives. As far as I know (and have played, and trust me, I've played a lot), there aren't any incredible 360 exclusives aside from Halo and Gears.

yea they amd and intel have quadcore cpus now and **** and intels new cpus faster than amds and amds faster than old socket 939 dualcores.

but the athlon 64 x2 socket 939 is still a great cpu regardless of what anyone says.

it's a shame only thing really holding me back is my cpu i would get a better one for my motherboard a damn x2 now hard to find now since discontiuned this sucks.

yeah, i dont know why but...there are just a very few games on the 360 (100% exclusives) that interest me...if there are 360/PC titles i'll get them on the PC ...and there are ALOT of PS3 titles that i want that are 100% exclusives :)

Gee can this possibly be because you (GASP) only wn a PS3? The 360 still has better exclusives. Most of you cows just try to pass off the weaker PS3 library to justify why you bought the overhyped and overpriced Bluray player...

better exclusives lol that's why everyone says 2008 was the year of the PS 3 the PS 3 exclusives got better scores and GOTY for both Metal Gear Solid and Little Big Planet, people are tired of the same old shooters just walking around and shooting everything that moves that's why they didn't pick your games halo and gears 2 , just like the Presidency they are saying it's time for a change.

$300 is not overpriced especially considering it's superior and reliable and has games coming this year

reliability is something important that the xbox doesn't have rrod, scratching disks etc..

btw the Blue Ray player is the icing on the cake :)

I have both 360 and PS3.... out of all of my consoles, I'll also like my n64 better. But still.

I have yet to be interested in a 360 exclusive. And by that, I mean EXCLUSIVE. Not PC too type of crap.

I payed enough for my PS3, but I've used it more than my xbox in every way. So far, best 400$ I've spent (ps2 compatible, SD card slots and all that jazz).

I love it.

i used to own a 360, and the exclusives titles (that are 360 only only..no PC shared)didnt appealed to me as the PS3 exclusives..so thats why i bought a PS3 (that and also the fact that i went through three 360s...my Gamertag is the same as my PSN ID if you want to check)

Seriously you got to be a blind fanboy to not accept it.

The PS3 is a better machine all around

the hardware is fenomenal

-Failure rate is very low, the machine is super silent, doenst get overheated as easy as the 360

Multimedia

- can rip videos from a cd or dvd to your harddrive, can rip songs from your ipod or mp3, can watch your favorite videos on the web brower ( megavideo, youtube, and many others) stream videos from your pc ( 360 does this as well i think)

Internet

- ONLINE GAMING IS FREE!!!!!, we get atleast 1 update every 2 months, web browser is not so bad either.

Games

- Did you see killzone 2? MGS4? Uncharted 1 and 2? We got some really cool games, and many others on the way but i still think the 360 has the edge on this one, but fear not, because 2009 will be a great gaming year for us, with GOW 3!!!!!!!

Well this is just my opinion =X

Solid_Snak3Xx
You cannot truly determine which console is the "best" until the latter end of the generations life. There are MANY factors that make the "best" console, and only time will tell. I feel that the PS3 MACHINE wise is much better. People have said crap about how the PS Store is harder to use than the XBL Marketplace but thats absurd if you ask me. If anything the NXE has made the Marketplace harder to navigate and half the time it isn't fully functional. The PS3 also features better technical specs as well as nice features like free online, built in wireless reception and internet browsing. I think the biggest hurdle (sp?) the PS3 must overcome is the library situation (but I feel in 2009 we will some some big games on it. Not to mention most games are multi platform now).

2 GB of ram is good for most games. Only ones you may want to have more with are Crysis. Consdering how cheap ram is right now (4GB for less than $50) it wouldn't be difficult for him to upgrade. He doesn't need to though. Considering how cheap Dual Core CPU's are now though, he should definitely get a Dual Core CPU. Go Quad Core if he can (fairly cheap as well). Might as well go all out.

I can't wait for a system that will incorparate everything from every system to make one centralized system so I can stop reading these sorts of topics.

PS3 is better than this, or 360 is better than that, or wii is better than all, or PC is the best, this will never end, so making topics like this really serve no purpose but to extend this conflict even further.

the motherboard i have now is a foxconn socket 939 nforce 4 sli board.

athlon 64 x2 first started on socket 939 and then amd discontinued them for the am2 ones.

While the PS3 might be a better console from a hardware standpoint, it's software and pricing that make the console world go round. Heck, the Xbox was a "better console" than the PS2, but that doesn't mean it was the best system to own last generation.

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"]"Seriously you got to be a blind fanboy to not accept it." Teriffic start. When it comes to the console hardware itself and multimedia functions, I think the majority can agree. But the games and online is really a subjective thing.

Couldn't have put it better myself.
