[QUOTE="PS3nut"]Really, PS3 exclusives so far: Motorstorm 1 & 2, Resistance 1 & 2, Warhawk, Gran Turismo 5, Heavenly Sword, MLB: The Show 07- 08, MGS-4, Ratchet & Clank, Little Big Planet, Valkyria Chronicles[QUOTE="Keggerr"]I would rather keep my 360 and get great titles all year round then get a PS3 and get 2 good games a year DarkGamer007
Great exclusives to come this year: Killzone 2, Infamous, White Knight Chronicles, God of War 3, Dark Void, Heavy Rain These are just the great exclusives off the top of my head but there are more.
What does your 360 exclusives consist of ?, wait let me see if i can guess, Halo 3, Gears 1 & 2, Crackdown, Project Gotham racing, Left 4 dead, Fable 2, Mass Effect, is there even anything else, or at least anything worth mentioning because the 360 exclusives list is like half the size of Sony's.
Dark Void isn't a PS3 exclusive, you also left out
[QUOTE="PS3nut"][QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"] You don't get very far in most games.SpruceCabooseYeah, uhh maybe because my 360 didn't last long enough for me to get very far in any games, but i did finish CoD 4 and WaW, Gears 1 & 2 and Halo 3 March 2007 until November 2008 is not enough time to finish most games? And you did send it in for your free repairs, I take it? Yea it doesn't make sense that it would take him that long to finish games.
[QUOTE="TheOwnerOner"]Guess people would still rather buy a broken 360 then a worthless PS3_Brennan_Something that's reliable isn't worthless.... Worth is a value judgment. A 360 may be worthless to some, while others would find much worth, same with the Wii, PS3, PC, DS, PSP, etc.
[QUOTE="tktomo01"]There are a lot of things I would like to say to you (more like swear at you) but I held it back because A) I'd get banned and B) this is System Wars. I don't think however, anyones opinion here on whether the PS3 or 360 is better is hardly ever justified or even valid, because 90% of people like you have never even used one that isn't yours for a moderatly long span of time, never mind actually owned one. So I implore you, out of respect for everyone at Gamespot, to shut up, becuase no one over eight really cares, and your opinion isn't one at all, just a biased statement from the critics (you must know half the time they're paid to say that kind of stuff right?).PS3nutYou could not be more wrong, Microsoft is actually the one responsible for creating this " PS3 Nut ", oh yes i have owned 360's, in fact i was one of the many online for 20 hours in November 2005, in the cold rain, waiting for my 1st 360 and guess what, less than one week later RROD, so i returned it to Best Buy and got another one, 2 months later RROD again, then i moved on to my third one but the third one was not the charm RROD again. So by that time the 1st of the 360 Elites came out so i got one, and whether you believe it or not 2 weeks later RROD, so i tried one more time and got another 360 Elite and it actually lasted until recently with the download of the new Xbox dashboard which killed my final 360 and after that i didn't care about the warranty or anything else, i was disgusted with Microsoft and their 360, i switched to the PS3 and i have had no problems since and i own over 20 PS3 games, and i now play online for free and could not be happier. I really find that hard to believe. If that is true, you have had the worst luck in gaming history I have ever heard. 360s do overheat, which could have been the case for you, where your 360 was close to anything that would potentially overheat it. I hope you are smarter than that though, and were aware of free repairs and return of console within 2 weeks. But it doesn't change the fact that nobody really cares, however, you have my deepest sympathies for such horrendous luck on missing out on one of the greatest consoles to date. Don't misunderstand me, I love the PS3, perhaps as much as you do. Just check my bio. And my apolagies, for acting so very un-cival in my last post.
[QUOTE="pyromaniac223"]My 360 has never RROD'd.tek91
You must be one of the lucky ones don't worry youll probably get it soon
All 360s have the potential, that does not mean that all 360s will RRoD. Some have better luck than others.Hi boys and girls!
It's time for me to get involved in this. I agree with PS3nut, 100%. I've owned the original Xbox 3 times over and 360 3 times, and everytime I've owned those systems I've had nothing but problems. Freeze up after freeze up. My friends started calling it the IceBox. I got so frustrated that went out and got the PS2. and you know what; NOT ONE PROBLEM. I owned it right up to the 360. Traded in my PS2 (BIG MISTAKE) for a 360 and guess what; more problems, including the ever popular; RROD. Got rid of it and got another one. And guess what; RROD. Thank God for the PS3. I've owned everything from the Dreamcast all the way up to the PS3 and I've never had more problems with any other system than with the Xbox and 360. So what if they have a bigger library. I'd rather have a smaller library and a reliable system than a bigger library and a CRAP system. Yeah, great dashboard, by the way. Froze up and RROD'd my system.

not really. everyone knows about the RRODclone01
*Goes back to playing 360 with no issues. PS3 continues to collect dust* Oh noes. Well, if it's in Game Informer, I trust it, as that's the world's most reputable publication. That must mean I'm only IMAGINING that my 360 works. Damn.Well the latest game informer arrived today and they listed the top 10 disappointments of 2008 and guess what took the number one spot as the biggest disappointment of 2008 ?
Good ol' Microsoft 360's Red Ring of Death is still going strong enough to make it to the top of the list.
So as i said a million times to you 360 fanboys before, the PS3 library can always improve and grow, but the 360 hardware will always be garbage...

I remember PONG, but that predates me by a few years. I am 24, so it seems you have some experience on me. I would agree that to me the PS3 is the better system from a reliability PoV (absolutely here, no doubt in my mind). Its also a good game system, but for me personally, the 360 has been a more complete gaming system to me. I still love the PS3, but it is not my primary gaming system. It may sound cliche, but I spend more time with it as a Blu-Ray player (I am also a huge movie fan, possibly more than gaming, but I doubt it).

Seconded. I'd say the PS3 is definitely better built, but as my 360 isn't breaking down, that doesn't mean too much (besides, I've got 2 warranties on the thing).
