PS3 users Are Getting Milked Big Time.

Most People dont realize that PS3 users have to spend more than 360 users. My facts

Sony finally decided to make an "official" headset that ps3 users have to buy rather than just getting it out of the box like the 360

Price: $46.00

http://kotaku.com/5044098/sony-unveals-ps3-wireless-bluetooth-headset

Sony Decides not to include Comonent cables for their so called "hi-def expirience" but Microsoft does ship with composite cables

Price: 29.99

Since you have to have mandatory installs with ps3 games, your 40 gb hard drive is gonna run up and fast. so you would have to buy a hard drive add on

Price: 129.99

theres alot more stuff but this should prove my point fairly easily

129.99+29.99+46.00= 205.98

with the 360 all you "need" to buy are

a 50 dollar gold subscription, and an 11.00dollar rechargebale battery packfor controllers

50+11=61 dollars

205.98>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>61

You fail on another level.

Headset is a great idea by Sony, even though anyone with a cell phone should have a blue tooth, atleast in california. Theres also a $15 wired headset made for the PS2/PS3

Lmao...I like how you used small txts for the 360 portion. :Psargentbotk

lol i was using the big text, and couldent get back to the normal size :P

If that IS true then that sucks. If not....Well....

*Gets popcorn, sits back and awaits BIG war*

I got a 160GB HDD for $74. :|

You can get HDMI cables for under $10. :|

:|

:|

Of course...you arn't actually required to buy any of that...Broman6015

you arent required to buy a gold subscription or battery pack either

By the way, composite cables are not Hi-definition.

You're thinking of component cables. ;)

Of course...you arn't actually required to buy any of that...Broman6015

I agree on that part.

If you don't need it, don't buy it.

I assume you mean Component video cables instead of Composite, right?bez2083

lol beat me to it.

Oh teh expenses! :o

I never said you had to....

TC, why would you think PS3 owners need a new HDD, but a 20gig 360 WOULD NOT?

People that buy XBOX Originals, along with big game saves like ROCKBAND(RB2, it around 3gigs).

That 20gig from M$ only started with 12gigs to begin with! Then you got XBLA, and installs coming soon!

just like all the costs cows tack on to the 360.

"my facts"

Those are his facts, you cannot has

I wish everyone would except the fact both sides get milked....then we wouldn't ever have to worry about these types of threads anymore.. we all know MS and Sony both milk in there own ways.:) Nothing against you TC..Erik_Lensherr

im not denying both sides are teh milked :) i just hate how cows can be so hypocritical at times

this was a poor attempt man....

mandatory installs will not drain your harddrive to the point that you need to upgrade

you can actually use pretty much any 3rd party wireless adapter or the original xbox one.

That's not true. Plenty of games have NO INSTALLS, or OPTIONAL INSTALLS. Who the heck is going to DELETE an XBOX ORIGINAL GAME?

Funny thing, you can delete the INSTALLS on the PS3 as well, and reinstall it. You don't see the fallacy of your logic?

Lmao, you forgot that you need a wireless adaptor for wireless playing online for 360 which is about 100 dollars so...

205>161 :o !TEH DIFFERENCEZ! :o

Also, you can just get a cheap HDMI cable off Amazon or even eBay.

TC has been owned. pwned.

Wow you have to buy RECHARGABLE battery packs every year..Ok then

Add 50 dollars every year for the PS3 controller , well because when the battery dies you have to buy another one...so since we have to buy an 11 dollar one every year then I gues you have to as well. So hmm that pretty much makes up the price of XBL.. Thanks for playing..8)

I've deleted 3 xbox originals so far. as for the mandatory installs, alot of games do have them, MGS 4, Haze, Bourne Conspiracy, Devial may cry 4 Bioshock, etc, etc. hell even a golf game has one! (hot shots)

[QUOTE="shoeman12"]what if your TV is a couple years old and has component but not HDMI? RotaryRX7

Then you buy these $4.99 component cables.

Well, if you owned a PS3, you would delete the Installs the same way. The game saves still stay on the system, you just delete the install, the same way you delete your Xbox Originals.

Let's be honest, you CANNOT USE THE $11.99(actually $12 if you guys didn't notice) BATTERY PACKS without the Recharge Cord. SO IN REALITY, YOU when talking about the PLAY&CHARGE Kit, it's $20.
