I can't honestly see how anyone can go without the great gaming lineup these two systems have. This gen they share more games than any other, and the games they do share are proving to be the best games of the gen. If you've got a bit of money laying around, you're more of a PC gamer or an RTS fan, you need to get yourself a good PC for this gen. If you've got a bit less money, you're more of a console gamer, or you're a Halo fanatic then opt for the 360. Either way it doesn't seem like you can go wrong.

And if you have both then you're a lucky ******* ;)

From there it seems to me that if need be you can supplement your gaming with something more unconventional like the Wii if you want some crazy motion sensing fun or if you're crazy about high def movies you can get yourself a PS3.

I honestly don't know what people are talking about when they say this gen sucks or whatever. Seems fine so far to me. Maybe they just have the wrong console. ;)

Because there aren'tenough available good games/justification to buy a PS3 right now.....that you couldn't buy on a cheaper system.

There might be in the future. At which point one will be able to buy a PS3 for less than what they cost now. When or if that happens in the future, I am sure someone will buy the PS3.

P.S. Notice the topic. Either a 360 or a PC. If we want to play the + + game, we ought to say why not PC+360+PS3+Wii. After all, how many currently available good PS3 games are there that aren't available on either PC or 360?

Thanks for agreeing with me. I don't think you realise you did, but I was clearly saying that everyone should have either a PC or a 360 as their primary gaming system and if they want they can add to it with a Wii or a PS3. So a PC+PS3 combo fits with this model.

You're wrong about 95%, and PC's have their own problems such as viruses and general complications and the like. Regardless of their respective shortcomings, the 360 and PC are both great platforms.

Most gamers own a PC (w/ 360, PS3 or Wii).

Many of the games that are on 360 & PS3 will end up on the PC. So if you have a highend PC and love FPS & RTS games more then anything else, the PC is for your. Anyone who likes a variety of games will should the 360, PS3 or Wii (or a combination of two).

Well by far the best combo is PS3/PC. Best of both worlds. But I do admit that if you're only going to own one gaming platform, the 360 is so far the best for most people. 360 is a jack of all trades, but master of none.

Precisely...because they actually have good game librairies right now. Of course, if you can afford them all, and want them all, then get them all...but IMO neither the Wii nor the PS3 have justifiable game libraries at the moment to be the primary system.

People shouldnt try to push their opinions onto people like that. Well it is system wars, but you never see sheep saying "Everyone should buy a wii (Although 10 million do) or definetly not cows saying "go buy a ps3". What makes your opinion so special?

Are you serious? To me, the 360 is completely not worth owning. Not only do I find the line up overrated by many on here, but the defective parts that went into making this console are reason enough to stay away from it. Even if you bring in the argument about the 3 years warranty, all I have to ask you is are you going to be gaming for only 3 years? That's just ridiculous. Even my PS2 has lasted me 5 years despite all the DRE errors. I have zero confidence in the 360 lasting after the 3 year warranty is up.

There are a LOT more. I didn't even include the games that are console exclusive. You don't even want me to start that list. There are literally 100's of consoles games that will never see the light of day on the PC and many of the quality PC shooter will be on the PS3 & XBox 360. So why do I need a PC for gaming?

That XBox 360 hardware issue will be fixed long before the 3yr warranty is up. Microsoft is already starting to incorporate the new XBox 360's with heatsink solutions to stop the 3 Red Ring issue. By this time next year, it'll be an afterthought. It's all about the games for me. The 360 has the best quality titles right now. Once the PS3 gets some decent games and a lower price, I'll pick one up. I could care less about PC gaming right now until Starcraft 2 is released and maybe Spore.

that is true the pc and the 360 are a gamers machine.the wii is fun in all butthere is no real games other than ssbb ,smg and i guess metroid even though i dont like metroid.PS3 well yea they got mgs but its a play twice and done game no real good online games other than ut3 which comes out for the 360 and pc i think.
