I would say 360 because for starters, XBOX Live, and a huge cast of good games. PS3 doesn't have enough good games to compete with the 360. If anything else I would suggest a Wii.
First of all do not get the Wii unless your a 4 year old...
If you can wait for great exclusives like MGS4, FF13, Haze, GTA4, GT5 get the PS3
If you want great games NOW get the Xbox360.
Oh yeah and if you dont want to pay extra for online get the PS3 aswell
I own a PS3 and a Wii and im dissapointed with my wii. I love my PS3 and im sure the Xbox is also great
first of all, the Wii is not for 4 years old kids, stop being immature, and GTA IV is not exclusive, you can get it on Xbox 360 as well with extra exclusive content.First of all do not get the Wii unless your a 4 year old...

If you want a great lineup in 2009 that will be comin to the 360 get a PS3.
If you want a real next gen console get a 360.
I've looked at this issue long and hard, and i'd say it depends. Xbox is made by microsoft, which means your xbox will die within 3 years, almost cerainly, although it will be under warrenty, you won't be able to play it until it's fixed. DO NOT GET WII! It is a piece of ****! the graphics look silly, and the best game is wii sports STILL! Come on! I had heard loads of things about it, i tried it, and my god was it boring. Now that that's out of the way, the PS3's advantages are basically reliability, blu-ray (rediculously good looking movies) potential, and if you don't already have a dvd player definitely get PS3. In other words Multimedia. Also, 360 is often noisy, so PS3 wins at Background Noise
For Xbox 360, there's Games,it has more games, slightly better games, and they are released on 360 sooner. However, PS3 is better here in some minor catagories, like baseball games: MLB the show is much better than mlb2k7. then there's Online Gameplaywhich is a debateable one. Xbox live IS BETTER than the PS3 thing, but you have to pay for it, $60 a year, while PS3's is free. For that reason i would say price is tied, since games cost the same, the actual xbox is $50 cheaper across the board on different models, but the online stuff costs a lot, and xbox games are OCCASIONALLY a few bucks cheaper. Usually only after the games are a year old though.
Overall, if you want to play 1st person shooters, and maybe madden/nba games, buy xbox 360, but not elite, aka retard xbox, since it's actually the same thing as xbox premium, but $100 more and it's painted black. If you want some more final fantasy type RPG's, and maybe some shooters and other sports titles, then i would probably get PS3.
Also note, if you're a total mac guy, get PS3, as Xbox is microsoft, and they're evil and bad and should be avoided.
Really though, it depends on what you want, definitely consider both.
If you want shooters and shallow games buy a wii or a 360.
If you wanna go next gen with great games, Awsome graphics, Free olnine, Virtual Community and Reliable hardware Buy a Ps3.
LOL!!! the 360 is the most well rounded console with as many as 760 games! and as far as variety goes.. the best selection by far! the PS3 doesn't even have any RTS games, the 360 has 15 of them! and as far as JRPG and WRPG's the 360 has 18! look TC..

The most obvious being that the Xbox 360 Elite is not the some as the Xbox 360 Premium. The Xbox 360 Elite has a 120 gig hard drive and the Xbox 360 Premium has a 20 gig.

I would say wait. I wouldn't buy either untill the bluray/hddvd war is done. World wide it looks like Sony will pull it off, but I'd still wait. The fanboys that want immediate satisfaction will tell you 360. Anyone with a memory or any experience in marketing will tell you it's become clear that Sony knows what its doing. Durability goes to Sony hands down.
But wait.
well I can play that game too:If you want shooters and shallow gamesbuy a wii or a 360.
If you wanna go next gen with great games, Awsome graphics, Free olnine, Virtual Community and Reliable hardware Buy a Ps3.

if you want flops, keep waiting for "teh cell powa", games with a poor gameplay, alot of framrate issues, and a grill, get a PS3. (:

PS3:)
So much win in that post :). Also you need to think, the ps3 has kept things close with none of its heavy hitters out, youd have to be crazy to think the ps3 wont have a huge uprise in sales next year. oh and COD4 ps3>>>COD4 360
PS3 if you want crap.
360 if you want better exclusives, better multiplats, better gameplay, and better reliablility (The system never crashes. Just like windows.)
You decide.

Haha, that's funny. better reliability. Who says PS3 is crap? It is definitely not crap. They're both really good, but 360 will crash (under warrenty) and PS3 won't have QUITE as good games. I.E. no Halo 3. But both have great titles like assasin's creed

360 has a larger game library, largely due to the fact that it got a year's head start. The 360 also has the worst game lineup of all 3 systems for 2008. Also, it requires an 8$ fee per month to play the online portion. Also look into red ring of death and 360 disk scratching
PS3 on the other hand has about an average game library, largely due to the fact that it's only a year old and it's using a new processor type called the cell. It has the best game lineup of 2008 and requires no monthly fees ever.
They're quite different.
8$ x 12 = 96.... thats double what it cost....:|360 has a larger game library, largely due to the fact that it got a year's head start.

I love how cows still think they have a 2008 wrapped up. Pure fanboyism.TMontana1004
or maybe just common sense
I've looked at the videos on gamespot, first of all, why don't most of the 360 ones work? Second, Warhawk looks like the best game ever created. The one halo 3 video i did manage to see stunk! The weapon took up half the screen! What's with that? Also, in the 360 commercial with halo, the alien guy whatever it's called looks awful. What's with the graphics? However, and a big however, I saw Ace Combat 6 and OH MY GOD! that might even be as good as Warhawk. That game looks like a freaking movie! Assasin's creed has a lot of hype, but it looked kind of corny on the video. Are there any videos that make 360 look good besides AC6? Please show me.s7t77s777
What the hell are you talking about?! Halo looks great, not groundbreaking but it's still has good graphics.

360 has the best games. Multiplatform games have also generally been better on the 360. (Considering that COD 4 sold about 75% on the 360, it seems that 360 versions of multiplatform titles will continue to be given priority in the forseeable future.)
The PS3 is great if you were planning to buy Bluray, if you perfer MGS4 over Halo (or other exclusives), or if you are a hardcore PC gamer (since many of 360's best titles are also released on PC).
In general, 360 currently offers far better games for less.
I would suggest to avoid getting the Wii, unless you want it for party games, or are a casual gamer and don't mind getting only a few worthy releases a year. It is awesome for parties (hands down the best), but the 360 or PS3 will offer you more compelling single player gaming experiences overall.
Please someone help me with this. WHAT ON EARTH DOES HAVING MORE GB's DO?????? Ok, say i have 100 more GB's. I can now do... What? i really don't get it. With the whole 40GB models, 60GB models, 80GB models, for xbox: 20GB versus 120GB on elite. With that extra 100GB i can do... ??? Can i save more games? Can i only play certain games with larger Hard Drive? Please help clarify.s7t77s777Because if people have big harddrives and large specifications, they won't have to think about their small packages down below!:lol:
