More important, playing with friends or game selection?

Ok so my friends all have 360s and they really want me to get one, but I want a PS3 so much more (free online, free wi-fi, Blu-ray player, etc.). The main reason though is the game selection.There's so many current and upcoming PS3 exclusives I want to play it's ridiculous (Killzone 2, God of War 3, MGS4, LBP, Gran Turismo 5, Twisted Metal, Heavy Rain, inFamous, Final Fantasy Versus, MAG, Quantum Theory, LA Noire, Resistance 2, Socom, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 1/2, Uncharted 1/2, Folklore, Heavenly Sword, The Show 09, EyePet, etc. etc. These are just off the top of my head too. So yea, has anyone else come across this problem when buying a system? If so, which way did you go and was it the right decision?

i only got a 360 because my bf moved away and i knew he had one,

Dont regret it one bit as were still gr8 m8s but then again i never really got attatched to my ps3

All my close friends are a really split user base (as in we all own different consoles hence we never play online) so I would just go with the PS3. You play what you want, let them play what they want. Plus, by christmas the 360 should reduce in price again so pick one up then.

I love multiplayer so I would go with the 360. If you do too go for the 360. It's much more fun playing online with friends. If your more into single player the ps3 would be fine. I personally perfer the 360 anyways overall.

Game selection.

Playing with friends.

playing with friends for me. suprisingly i've been buying more PS3 games and only 1 other friend has a PS3. like 8 of my friends have a 360 and i've been missing out on playing with them :(, oh well, choices.

if i were you though, i'd have to say do what makes you happy. don't worry about your friends if you really don't want to get a 360. if game selection matters to you more and you want to play more games on the PS3, get the PS3. but honestly though, no matter which system you get you'll have a great experience with either games wise.

Really depends on the person. Personally I like a good mix. I need games I can play with people and some I can play online and by myself.

It depends on how much you like your friends. Haha, I mean if the experience isn't going to be good overall, there's no point. Friend o' mine constantly tells me to get Xbox Live, but since he gets kind of douche bag-y during even split screen (and I don't really care for playing with the other guys), I chose PC instead. With two good buddies of mine, when I first started playing Day of Defeat, I'll tell you now, I sucked so much, but I had the time of my life!

You can still play online against other people with PSN anyways, so I think PS3.Chojuto

i picked ps3 over xbox 360 even though all my friends had a 360. its was game selection free wifi, free online blu-ray etc. i would rather have a good free online service than a great service that u have to pay for. but the only downside for me not having a 360 is that i dont get to play with my friends.

Word of advice, buy what you want, who cares what friends have. If they are too cheap to afford both, oh well.

Most of my closest friends have both, so it's the best of both worlds.
