[QUOTE="ianuilliam"][QUOTE="Miketheman83"]360 has...

More high scoring games? Sure, a few. Mostly due to PS2 ports. Also, it includes games that are on 360 and PS3 but GS only reviewed the 360 version.More full fleshed online service? Why, because of cross-game chat? PSN vs Live will always be subjective. They both have features the other doesn't. The biggest difference is that if all you want to do is play games or watch netflix, one chages you $60 a year, and the other doesn't.
Best multiplats? What is this, 2006? Almost all games look/perform identically, or so close that it can't be determined under normal play conditions and takes counting pixels in side-by-side comparisons one frame at a time. On the other hand, over th last year or two, a whole lot of multiplats have been including extra content at no extra cost on the PS3 version. I'll take games that are "better" because of extra content that I can actually play over "better" because a website tells me one version has three more pixels that I can't even see.
Please elaborate on most online game and movie content. And most exclusive dlc. Is that timed exclusive dlc? Or do you mean things like Knights of the Nine not being available for purchase on PSN, since it was included in the regular edition of Oblivion on PS3?
More hardware sales and software sales? Yes. 360 has a few more units sold. It's been on the market about 20% longer, but only has about 6% more sales. I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that PS3 has higher annual sales? As for software sales, I still can't seem to find 360's worldwide units of software sales anywhere in their fiscal reports. Could you link to it?
I swear... Whatever happened to the days back in 2005-2008 where people just wanted to talk about high scoring exclusives? Oh wait... I think I know what happened...
On Metacritic and Gamespot the 360 has more high scoring games. FACT. Lets not pretend that good games dont make a GAME console good.Live is better than PSN. More features, more integration, faster download speeds, more game content. FACT. Whether you think that is worth the price or not is up to you.
Most multiplats perform better on the 360 and this will never change. The 360 is the lead platform for multiplats because it has a larger install base and its easier to develop for and its nobodys fault but Sonys for making their console hard to develop for and getting ports of 360 games. Live has more games and more movies on demand then PSN does. FACT.
Microsoft pays for exclusive and timed exclusive content to make their customers happy. Sony rarely does this. The fact that the 360 is still in the lead on the hardware and software side of things just shows you how bad sony messed up this gen based on their unbelievable following from the PS2. Keep telling yourself that the PS3 isnt a failure, it was even competition for the 360 until a year ago...and this gen is almost over.
You are citing popular opinion as fact. As satisfying as it can feel to know that x game was received critically well, you know that other people aren't doing the thinking for you when you play the game (at least I hope they don't). Surely people are allowed to think for themselves when playing x game? It may irritate you that others like the PS3 exclusives over the 360 but value is found in the eyes of the customer, not what critics think. Has there not been any game that was reviewed poorly or even average that you thought was fantastic? Did you try to convince yourself that you shouldn't like the game just because it was received poorly? I surely hope you didn't.
While I do agree that Live is better than PSN in almost every way imaginable, aside from cost, it is still a matter of opinion and preference when it comes down to the deciding factor. Where you find value in Xbox Live others may not. I know a couple of PS3 owners who never play online games or there are some who do, who just solely use PSN to play online games, without ever purchasing anything from the Store. Would you still tell them that it's a fact that Live is better?
People are still using this argument? Last noticeable title to really be the better purchase was Bayonetta... in which it has been patched to be on the same level now of the 360 version. There are some older games out there that do perform much better on 360 but that time is no longer. Nowadays there are plenty of games that release more or less on the same scale and if there are differences as to which performs better, be it 360 or PS3, they are minuscule. Some of the same games I owned on 360, I now own on PS3 and I still can not tell a difference. Only when I go on forums and do I see screenshots being closely scrutinized is there a difference, a difference that is unnoticed when actually playing. If you prefer superior multiplats then I suggest investing in a good PC. Then you can really see a difference.
Okay??? +1 to 360 then. It gets timed DLC. Why do people still use sales as an argument? Are you by any chance a Microsoft stockholder? Do you keep up with NPD charts? If yes to those questions then I can understand that mentality. But if you're a customer then what does it matter whether or not sells more? Is their some secret joy in knowing others share your purchases? I mean why not just sell all your 360 stuff and go buy a Wii and a load of games for it? If knowledge of sales make you happy then surely that is the best choice for you.
