I'm thinking of getting a XBOX 360 instead of a PS3. I want to get a PS3 Cause of its online play and selection but its too expensive. i want to get a XBOX cause its cheaper and it nearly shares most of its games with the PS3 but do you have to pay to play online on it?

...Seriously though, you won't go wrong with either. In the end, you'll still get a decent gaming experience from both.

My fanboyish side still says PS3, however.

And I believe it's 50 dollars or 40 dollars per year for Live. Not a lot.

No, you don't pay monthly. Just get a Live card, and you're set for the time.

I would get a 360. But we probably have completely different tastes, so I don't see how it helps you.

lol don't listen to 'sony the champ0' at all. Fanboyism? I think so.

Its $50 or £30 a year to play online but thats gives you online access to all games and a whole load of other stuff. Plus, you're XBOX would have come with a headset, PS3s dont have a headset and that remark about paying monthly is complete bull-twaddle.

qman (i think that was his name, sorry if wrong. XD) said it right, both the same really. Just go with what exclusives interest you the most, including the 360/pc shared ones unless you have an uber computer.

Xbox is far better then the 360, its online is far greater hence your payment. lol, i remember when i bought MGS4, half an hour of that game is instalments, whereas on the 360, you would just change the disk in a sec. i went to play MGS:O i had to download some instalment which took 1:30-2 hours, and that wasnt even the worst part. you need 4 profiles to play online, one regular profile, then an online id, then a konami id(funny that) then another profile for your character, altogether, that is over 4 hours to play a single online match, then when i finally do play a match, the connection is so horrible, that literally every 10 secs i saw players just turning around in a circle for 20 secs/

xbox>ps3

There's a quote function, you know. :P

Also, forgot about the exclusives. Just research both systems, find out what exclusives you prefer, and also see if the extra 200 or 100 dollars is enough to warrant a PS3 purchase over a 360.

You should get the MakeUpYourOwnMindStation 3. But the BlogItBox 360 is also pretty good.
