Imainly like RPG's, action adventures like devil may cry, and some shooters like resident evil. I would really appreciate some advice on which one to get, and I Can't get both. Thanks in advance

Also does the 3 year 360 warranty cover anything that happens to it that is caused by the system itself.

Ialready have a wii so don't suggest that.

They're both excellent systems... Right now I would say the 360 but by the end of next year you might catch me saying PS3. Its a tough choice so early into this generation...

Yeah, I can't really decide either.

I'm waiting for more price drops and more game announcements.

Well, the 3 year warrantly only covers the RRoD, so keep that in mind. Sony's always been great for RPGs, so for the future I would go with a PS3 (although I admit I'm slightly biased).

The best thing is go with the PS3 because of reliabilty. Also the 3 year warrenty only covers the RROD and nothing else. It's just a way of M$ from being forced into a complete recall/refund from the government.

You'd be better off getting a 360 right now. They have both RE5 and DMC4, plus a better line-up of RPG's, but wait for PS3, I almost have enough for one finally lmao.

360 has everything you want...if you're buying a console for reliability you shouldn't be a gamer...you buy a video GAME console to play GAMES, not to sit around bragging about how it doesn't break....of course it isn't going to break if you don't use it. *That was aimed at cows, not the TC*

hey i have an idea buddy! Take notes from your avatar!

The person above you is right, PS3 still doesn't have very many good exclusives, besides MGS, Ratchet and Clank, and KZ2.

personal choice. I don't think this but i could easily say KZ2>>>halo 3, or vice versa, that was my point to him and now to you. If you have any ounce of intelligence you will agree.

If you want RPGS def. go 360. They have 2 GOTY contenders in Mass Effect and Bioshock which are RPGS. They also have Oblivion and Fable 2. If you like shooters then its a no brainer to go 360, you got Gears, Graw 2, Stranglehold,Halo 3, Army of 2, UT3, RV6, Kane and Lynch, and many others. They also have some pretty good action and adventure games coming out like Assasins Creed and Conan.

Hey, graphics aren't everything, and I doubt the sequel to a 6.9 game will beat Halo 3.

That's real mature. Don't worry about the system breaking, because if you do, you aren't a gamer.

I'll tell you that reliability matters very much to me. What if I want to play, but my system is in transit to get fixed? That's horrible. Awful. Reprehensible. Disgusting.

I loathe the very thought.

And yet, I'm a gamer.

if you like rpgs and you want a system this year you have no choice the ps3 only has one rpg this year (folklore) while the 360 has four(Mass Effect, Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, Lost Odyssey)

if you still aren't convinced here are the rest of the 360 games vs the ps3 games do some research and find out which one is better to you but i think since you like rpgs you may want the 360 more plus its $150 cheaper.

Halo 3

Mass Effect

Blue Dragon

Lost Odyssey

Eternal Sonata

PGR4

Ace Combat Six

Naruto Rise of ninja

Viva Pinata Party Animals

Bioshock(also on PC)

World in Conflict(also on PC)

PS3 games

Lair

Folklore

Warhawk

Uncharted

Ratchet and Clank

Heavenly Sword

UT3(also on PC, 360 confirmed next year)

Haze(timed)

First thing you need is ..... a brain so you can decide these things for yourself or at least figure out where to ask such a question because the last place to ask is here in Systemwars .

Mmm.. , just look out your window , if you see a Scarecrow , Lion and a young girl with a dog passing by immediately join them .

Don't you carry nothing that might be a load and just ease on down , down the road !

Ha, someone is mad. Usually people get defensive when they know they have lost an argument. Anway, 360 now, and get a PS3 like this Christmas I'd say, like that other guy said lol.

Hey man, I'm in the same position. Right now i'm leaning a bit towards the PS3, just cause it has such a variety of games coming...but then again theres always Halo 3, Mass Effect, Bioshock, and Eternal Sonata. What I'm planning to do is wait till the beginning of 08, and look at which games I really want and see if any console is a bit cheaper. The choice is up to you though, if there's one system that has the kind of games you want, and you have the money...why not?

check out the upcomming releases for both systems, i just bought my 60 gig ps3 2 weeks ago because of the blu ray player and upcomming releases some for 2007 but mostly for 2008, basically I made my decision after E3 I liked what sony had to offer and with the price dropit was a done deal for me. ive had my 360 for over a year now, its been very reliable never had any problems with it. only reason y i got a 360 is because it basically only cost me 100$ and i wanted some next gen gaming at the time, 360 has some great titles comming out for 2007 (I dont have to name which ones ). but lets not forget 2008 is right around the corner.. so all i could really say is......get both :lol:
