I just got done watching the Technobuffalo console war video thing where the latest round discussed the future of the two consoles and which has a brighter outlook. They gave the win to 360 because they said Live will probaly always be one step ahead of PSN and Natal is something brand new opposed to Move. They did say PS3 will be the place to go for 3-D stuff, but who knows if thatll catch on. Also, he said the game changer could be what ever PSN premium offers.

Any, which of these two consoles do you think has the better and or brightest future? Personally, I think XBOX has a brighter online future (unless the Premium PSN service puts it to shame), but I do think PS3 has a brighter Graphics future. Also, between Natal and Move, I think Natal does have the most potential, but also the most potential of failing.

Ps3. The 360 has been running dry in terms of exclusives/ new IPs. At this stage I can't see Natal catching on well, but we'll have to wait and see. On the other hand the ps3 has a lot of good exclusives coming out and new IPs. Its also selling better than ever.

Yeah, I can see 360 losing steam. But I think itll still do just fine. They seem to sell Software real good.

neither because they'll eventually be replaced by whatever comes out after them and we'll all end up shoving them aside. :(

I cant fight a honest answer. Friking PS3 has a tun of graphics to show yet thats true, online may be the 360s only saveing grace. And its a good one though

The PS3 outsells the WII in Japan, The PS3 outsells the 360 in Europe and the gap widens, without the release of GT5.

In America it is pretty much neck to neck, like last NPD numbers showed.

Which has a brighter future? PS3.

Xbox 360 has the best games, by far, there is nothing like Alan Wake, Fable 3, Lost Odyssey, Mass Effect 1-2-3, Gears 1-2-3, Banjo 3, Kameo etc etc on PS3

Has the best controls, with Natal and the most confortable controller ever currently

The best online by far

And the best visuals with Alan Wake

Demon Soul is the only PS3 game i can enjoy for months, every other PS3 exclusive title took me a single day to finish and were all rents

FF13vs and Last Guardian are the games i am interested in from PS3 upcoming lineup, a possible Valkirie Profile, Dark Cloud 3 and Demon Soul 2 too, but none of those is even mentioned yet, and noone knows if they will come or be exclusive, even FF13vs could go multipltform

So, PS3 in the future has 2-5 games max for me, while 360 has Alan Wake, Fable 3, Mass Effect 3, Kingdom Under Fire 2, Two Worlds 2, Rareware games, etc etc

I think the PS3 simply because it has a steady flow of exclusives while MS are just tossing them out here and there. Although I do agree with your point that Natal has more potential than Move but also has a higher chance of flopping.

To me i think xbox, simply cuz i think slim would the future modle for it, it will be stronger, faster, less problems (am telling you RROD and E74 was made up by sony!!), wi-fi and and Gears 3 and halo reach alone are good enough to ensure me that xbox would be fine, and natal would sell like crazy, i mean look how the wii got sold!

PS3 as the online is free (and improving!), there area larger range of exclusives to choose from (from shooters like MAG tokart racing like Modnation Racers) andthe hardware is more reliable(5% YLOD vs35% RLOD)

MIght I also add that the Move is shaping up more promisingly than Natal? The Move can play games like Socom 4 and casual games whilst the only thing Natal has been able to do is to bounce a big red ball from one end of the screen to the other :)

How is this even a question? All 3 consoles are established brand with more than 30 million units sold worldwide. None of them are going anywhere until the next generation.Anyone that thinks that one of the consoles is going to fail or die out at this point betrays how out of touch with reality they really are.

I think both of them tie. MS is expanding thier 1st party so that its not so laughable anymore. Live is getting better and better. Ps3 gained momentum and isn't loosing it so I think its good to have both I know i want games on both consoles and if gamers want games on a console then the console has a bright future.

Both

I don't want any console to fail (not gonna happen anyway).

Competition brings out great gaming. Thats a fact, so all gamers alike benefit from this.

OMG, 10,000 leaves is back!!!11

OT: MS are picking up more 1st party studios, so that's more exclusive games and more games to show what the system can do. RROD and reliability troubles are gone. The PS3 has gone from a Titanic/grill/$600 brick hybrid to a sales beast, finally making profit and PSN is expanding. Anything you could fault both machines for in the previous years is being rectified. My 2 cents- Sunshine, puppies and hippy crap for all.

Thats a very naive statement to make...If you seriously think that M$ are gonna spend millions on developing, marketing and then launching a completely new and innovative way to play games which you're only " able to bounce a big red ball from one end of the screen to the other " with then you need to wake up right now...

How thick do you consider M$ to be?? A trained monkey could tell you people would never buy that...

They obviously have a few tricks up their sleeve for E3 and beyond...

As for the future of either console, as far as I'm concerned the 360 has pretty much hit its graphical ceiling ( although, in fairness Alan Wake begs to differ )

I just think the 360 is slightly outdated in terms of hardware while the PS3 is a bit more future-proof...You can tell Sony knew they were in it for the long-run when they developed the console...

But the 360 DOES have great exclusives IMO so maybe it'll be a two horse race...Both consoles are now established successes so it all depends who release their next gen first and gives up on the current gen( My moneys on M$ )

Unless natal is extremely successful (with casuals) then PS3's future seems brighter.

Xbox without a doubt. PS3 is probably going to die off within the year.

I just played Alan Wake today, the game is a revelation, 360 just killed anything in the market

For those that think Alan Wake is not good, well, it is your loss

And in AW case, it is a HUGE HUGE loss

Both consoles are flourishing, but the PS3 looks to show the most potential right now.

It's obvious the 360 will if you look at most games people play most of them are multiplats and those multiplats are waaaaay more popular on the 360.Plus the 360 only needs 2 games to be better than the ps3.(Halo and gears)untouchables

360 does because it has Halo 3 and Halo Reach, and by that i mean that 100,000s of people will still be playing them when the next Xbox comes out.

Khadaj32

Well, what upcoming games does PS3 have to counter Fable 3, KUF2, Gears 3, Mass Effect 3, Natal, Rare games, Halo Reach, Alan Wakeetc etc ?
