Xbox 360 or PS3? What game console should i buy, a 120 Gb PS3 ($299 slim), a 60 Gb Xbox 360 Elite ($299) or an Xbox 360 Arcade ($199)? What game should you recommend to buy me first on PS3 and/or Xbox 360?Devil_o2
I say they are equal. Some things the PS3 does better and vice versa.
The PS3 is starting to pull ahead when speaking of pure graphics. The 360 definitely has its share of beauties, but I think it's fair to say Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, and GT5 Prologue look better than almost anything on the market.

Same could be said about Gears 2, you know. But yes,as of NOW the software is a notch in favour towards the PS3.

Gears 2 is really beautiful, definitely a benchmark for the 360 and one of the best looking games of the current gen.
they are both much the same. I'd get the ps3 as it is better value, don't even consider the arcade as you'll end up paying more than a pro once you buy all the bits you will want down the track for it. imprezawrx500I bought an arcade, and a 20 gig harddirve for $20 straight from MS during some deal or another, its enough to install a couple games, and gives me full access to what I use the 360 for, which is single player games, and I don't even hook mine up to the internet.

^^^That. It comes down to things like which controller you like more, the games, and whether or not you want bluray right now.
imO:
go for the Ps3:
1) you get blu ray
2) you dont have to pay an extra 50$ for live, so that equals an extra game
3) Great games to choose from: uncharted 2
but yea, 360 is as good. As of now id say ps3 is a better deal plus a game like uncharted 2 is an amazing first buy.
also it depends what connection you want, wired or wireless.
wired: 360 and ps3 equal (but u still ahve to pay for live)
wireless: Ps3 handsdown, 360 u wuold have to buy a router for it. So yeah, upto you now. :P have fun
I hate to admit it, being a die-hard Lemming and all, but there's no way that anyone can say (with a straight face) that PS3/360 graphics are on par... I have all of 360's biggest titles, and after playing Killzone 2 and now Uncharted 2, I can honestly say that there is nothing on xbox360 that can compare at this time... maybe Alan Wake will be close, maybe Splinter Cell Conviction... maybe Halo: Reach will become the next bench-mark, but for right now, if graphics are your thing, PS3 has left xbox360 in its dust... play Uncharted 2 on a decent quality HD monitor, in 720p and you'll see exactly what I mean... God, I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's true...67gt500
Die hard lemming huh, thats interesting considering it looks like you own all 3 consoles. Anyways, when people say they're equal they're meaning capable of producing the same stuff.
Ok, so i decided to buy a 60 Gb Xbox 360 for $250 at Best Buy, but not right now until christmas holidays so i can save up some money, how much would Best Buy can discount on the christmas holidays specials??? And what game should you recommend me, Gears of Wars 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Devil May Cry 4, or Halo 3?Devil_o2
Can`t go wrong with Gears 2 and Halo 3

Gears2 and halo3 will probably give you the most bang for your buck.

Yeah, I have all three and out of every, say, hundred hours I spend gaming on them I use my xbox360 for roughly 99 of those hours and the other 2 consoles? Well, I'm sure you're getting the picture and all...[QUOTE="fortunehunter55"]Uncharted 2 alone is worth buying a Ps3 for.67gt500Normally, one game alone isn't worth that kind of investment, but Uncharted 2 most certainly is... No one game is worth buying a console for the whole library is what you need to look at.
