360 has the most JRPG's this gen, and has outstanding online play for the consoles.

It seems only natural.

Basically it's the choice between a game system and a blu ray player. If you want to play games then 360 is the only choice.

Do you like:

Free Online

Lots of great games titles such as R2, MSG4, LBP, Uncharted Drakes fortune, Motorstorm and loads more...

Built in Wifi

Awesome social system with playstation HOME which is getting even better with every update

Bluray Player

Playstation Store with loads of exclusive downloadable themes, demos, wallpaters, trailers, downloadable movies to own or to rent, downloadable FULL length games, and PSN exclusive titles such as wipeout HD, Pain, and echnochrome and many more...

Reliable system that won't get the RROD

If you like those things then the obvious choice would be to get a PS3

I'd say PS 3 things are looking better for the PS 3 than any other console with it's 09 lineup and price drop MGS 4 and Little Big Planet are awesome as for rpgs the PS 3 has alot of good ones.

Valkyria Chronicle, Final Fantasy XIII and Fiinal Fantasy XIII versus, Eternal Sonata, Cross Edge, Encharted Arms and White Knight Chronicles, Dragon Age origins, Sacred 2 Fallen Angel, The Last Remnant they are even working on an Aliens RPG .

If you can afford it, get a PS3, dude. The price is the only con for the PS3. The cons for the 360 is the reliability of the machine itself, and paying to use MY online service, just sounds crazy to me. Most games are multi platform, and both have good exclusives (MGS4, Gears, LBP, Halo, R2) I also believe that the PS3 has more legs. Oh, and blu-ray > dvd disc

I agree with this one. Some great new RPGs are coming out for the PS3.

With the exception of Tales of Vesperia and Fable 2 (a WRPG), every single RPG to grace the 360 has flopped...Honestly, I would go with a PS3 because of Valkryia Chronicles, White Knight Chronicles, and FFV13

[QUOTE="kkcchu"]

what kind of goodies? :)

wow overwhelming 360 majority

Rightfully so, the 360 has alot of the major JRPG titles right now. Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Last Remnant, to name a few. In any case, the 360 is probably your choice of best fit if you're looking for JRPGs. Plus it's cheaper and that's never bad. Although you would have to pay for online.

how good do u guys think star ocean 4 will be? played it on ps2 and it was pretty good. new one for 360 looks pretty solid. also i already have a ps1 so the comment about downloading shouldnt applykkcchu
SO:TtEoT was a blast for me. I doubt Sqaure Enix could go wrong if they just improve off of that game. Plus the screens show really nice graphics for it. SO4 is shaping up to be a really good game.

Have they even shown anything realtime? You know, actual gameplay? Plus, Square's track record for this gen games is absolutely abysmal (Edit->this gen as in PS3 and 360).

True on both points. I'm hoping that last year was the slap in Square's face and that this year they'll actually come out with some solid, quality games ie SO4 and FFXIII.

Worst place to get an unbiased opinion. I'll try. PS3 is an awesome machine. The extras are great and there are some really good games on it. I enjoy mine. 360 is likened to the PS2 last gen in that it came first, got the larger library, had hardware problems. I enjoy it's games and online. It sucks to pay for the right to play online, but it amounts to about $4 and change per month. If you really want to play jrpgs than it has many. PS3 is coming out with more. As for the 360 ones flopping, I don't think I'm alone in questioning the validity of GS' scoring this year. Dude all decisions are our own, good luck.
