Hmmm the best way would be to filp a coin, there is no point asking in system wars considering Lemmings out number cows by 10 to 1.

If you can't figure out which console to get without a bunch of fanboys trying to persuade you, you don't deserve either of them.

50/50? Not a chance in hell. This place is full of 360 fanboys. Take a poll and find out.

The 360 because it already has great games and a great online system. While, PS3 doesn't have that many quality games out and I am expecting a price drop for it later.

If you want ease of use and reliable hardware, the 360 is your last option. If you want a bigger set of games, then the 360.

But the PS3 is starting to look very nice.

Well, last gen this place was full of cows and the PS2 won that console war. Now this place is full with lemmings. What does that tell you..

P.S. I am not being biased or anything just saying the facts.

this is terrible logic, don't listen to them, they have beter support because they've been out longer and has a better system with a library ten times better than that of the ps3's not wanting to support them becuase they're good, and settling for the worse product is just idiotic

I would get the 360 for now.  First off, it is cheaper.  It has the most high-quality games.  And a lot of the games that were going to be exclusive to PS3, are considering also being released on the 360.  And if, when you finally beat all the 360 games that you want to beat, you see that the PS3 has a few exclusive games that you want, it will be cheaper anyways by then.  So, I would have to say, go for the 360.

Depends on what games you want.  Here are some of the more notable exclusives:

360 has shooters (Halo 3, Gears of War trilogy, Bioshock, Lost Planet), wrpgs (Mass Effect trilogy, fable 2), racing (pgr3/4, Forza 2), jrpgs (Eternal Sonata, Blue Dragon), and some rts (Halo Wars, C&C3, BFMEII - though i wouldn't recommend rts on a console)

ps3 has action/adventure (Ratchet & Clank, Jak & Daxter, team Ico Games), hack and slash (God of War 3, Heavenly Sword), shooters (Resistance, Warhawk, Socom, Killzone), jrpgs (FFXIII, White Night Story), racing (Gran Turismo, Motostorm), and novelty games (LittleBigPlanet).  Also, the king of all stealth games MGS4.

Yeah, seriously. SONY never gets any support. Aside from the fact that they've sold over 200 million consoles worldwide, but really it's SONY who are the underdogs....um, just keep telling yourself that and maybe it will be true.

 

Okay, I'll try to stay on topic.  ATM the 360 is a better buy all around.  Maybe in a couple of years things will be different, but for now, I think your safest bet is the 360.

I seriously do not understand why the PS3 is stereotyped to have no good games out, or at least, very few of them. Do all of you guys play all of the games on one system or something, are you guys that hardcore in gaming? I honestly only own a couple of games, and didn't even finish some yet. Indeed it is a fact that the 360 currently has a much larger game selection out right now, but who is going to purchase most of these games when they first buy the system? It is going to take time to finish all of these games, but by then, more new games are going to come out for both systems. TC, if I were you, I'd pick the system that is going to have more games that are going to appeal to you in the future, and look for some of the games your interested in right now.

Do not buy a 360, the failure rate is through the roof and MS are lying about the numbers. Mine died after a year with a error code 0022, a gpu problem, there are so many things that can go wrong with it and forums are over flowing with people with dead 360's trying things like x clamp fix, eraser fix, heat gun fix, towel fix.

It's a joke and MS need to be hung up for releasing such terrible hardware. DO NOT BUY ONE, THE ODDS ARE IT WILL BREAK BETWEEN THE TIME YOU BUY IT AND 18-24 MONTHS LATER. That's a fact that MS will soon have to own up to.

It depends how long you intend to play it for.If you think you'll be playing it for another 5 years i'd say a ps3.360 is best right now though and will be for a while yet (opinion)

Well, if you're like me and watch 3 or 4 movies AT THE MOST a month, and as a result, the hype of the almighty Blue Ray player doesn't interest you, why spend 200 bucks more on essentially the same thing? Except for the fact, from what I've been gathering, the more expensive system is getting the short-end on a lot of ports...

your obviously dont understand me...i wasnt referring to the support sony has gotten from the ps2, psx or psp sales..im talking about the ps3 here, where the "topic" is at....im just tired of people saying the ps3 is not worth the money, and im tired of everybody on this damn system wars saying that the ps3 doesnt deserve any support..u guys are all acting like the ps3 will never have any games, and are acting like upcomming exclusives like NGS and Lair arnt going to be good...i just believe 360 got its support, and the main reason it got all the support it has now is because of GeOW

Get Gamefly and then you can try and play all the games. One of the huge advantages of consoles is you can go down to your local blockbuster and rent practically any game. So while I agree that no 360 owner will buy all those games, owning a 360 gives you a much larger library that you can either buy or RENT!

you guys must swim in money. Get a ps3 imo, it´ll last you a really long time, and you´ll end up doing more then just playing games, check both lineups of games, I can´t see how the 360 lineup is even comprarable to the ps3 lineup, but that my opinion on games.
