Powerful in specs or in real use?

More powerful regarding multiplats or regarding exclusives?

These differences exist....

Most multiplats run better on the 360, but exclusives on PS3 look better than the 360 ones (some, again no direct comparison can be made)

PS3 by such a hilariously puny amount compared to 2005 expectations that we're all idiots by entertaining discussion on the matter.

Both have about the same power. I would say 360 is more capable due to it's better hardware design.

The 360 has many great exclusives but no one cares about that because this is system wars and on system wars the 360 only has 3 franchises

Well judging by the rate of drawing polygons per second the 360 is the more powerful system. I mean maybe PS3 is better at multi tasking but not sure about that one. But 275 million polygons versus 500 million polygons is kind of a no brainer. 360 is the winner. I just think the developers for the 360 exclusives were lazy.

I'd say PS3, but by a laughably small margin considering the lengths they went to and the costs incurred.

MS took the gentle and straight road to get to their finished product while Sony took the scenic route, added 14 hours onto their journey, hit a lot of bumps on the way, crashed a few times and still ended up at the same destination.

I can't believe people keep posting this thread. There's only like 8 billion others you could have read through. Oh, and there's the additional 8 billion articles about it on the web.

Thats because developers started caring less about the dorrito munching and mountain dew chugging masses because they realized the people who use playstation were suddenly in equally massive droves. So they finally started actually making an effort for the PS3.

Hence why 360 never has or never will have a game that looks as good as the last of us.

I feel these conversations are so last gen. The 360 is more powerful. I find that odd since Sony had a year to get a leg up. I guess they used that time and put it all into the "cell" and the results were a waste.

The one responsible for the greatest game of all times, The Last of Us :cool:

Nothing can rival TLOU in graphics. Not even Crysis 3 maxed out on PC.
