why i chose ps3 over 360

i am not a ps3 fanboy or any thing but i just wanted to say why i chose the ps3

well fisst of all is that which ever console i chose it will have to be imported and so if it brakes i am basicly screwed

so the red ring of death was relly a big threat for me and the ps3 had low melfunction rates.

secondly the last time i checked the ps3 only used 30% of it procecing power while the 360 used 70% (not sure if there are right)

but my point was that the 360 does not have much to impove on while the ps3 could still offer even better game.

too bad for me that i over looked the importance of ram, how easy it is to code games and muilty threads which are the ps3 main bottle neck making them almost the same in game prosesing (well at least for now). so now for my concusion i still think the ps3 is a good chosie for me but for thouse who are luck to live i a place wher you can use a warrenty if you get rrod

you should buy a 360 and allow the 360s games to abuse the 360 hardware. cause when you get the rrod you also get a brand new 360 with it!

the ps3 games will get better and more power will be untapped as devs get more faimular with the hardware, isint MGS 4 using all of the ps3s power or something? anyway your choice but these threads usualy attract petty fanboys, my 3rd 360 bit the dust last week it was a old model it kept given disc read errors gave me a good year and a half of gaming and i cant complain ill be getting a elite soon one that runs quiter and cooler, not gonna give up on 360 this year too many good games out, ps3 and 360 line ups are great this year

i ment chose to buy

i think the ps3 is more relible to import than the 360 cause it haves low hardsware failure rates but for people in the u.s and can refund the xbox for hardware failures plus ithey get a new one

There is no evidence to support this - this is just what ps3 fanboys will tell you. Because we are still all waiting for developes to "unlock teh power of teh cell".

Why do some prats have to be immature about this...

people saying the topic title and that sentence beg to differ, how the f*** does it, are you retarded. Leave this guy alone, he has some valid reasons, i dont understand why people enjoy picking other people apart. He may be ill informed but from what his English is like i can see why he is.

My opinion on the thread... fair point that the ps3 seems more reliable. You dont sound anything like a fanboy aswel, have fun playing your playstation.

look i am getting annoeyed with comments on how my information on the procing power the consoles useage is wrong

i mean i only need one person to point it out and state whats wrong not everone. i got the information from a playstation mag 3 months ago. i am going to write my orgnal post again for the sake of this form being runied by my mistake.

okay so the reson why i chose to buy the ps3 over the 360 was that i was going to importat which ever consol i chose making the warrenty useless so if the is a hardware melfunction i am basicly srewed and the ps3 haves low hardware melfunctions compared tothe 360 which haves the famuse rrod problem affecting alot of consols at a rate i became worried about so it was logical to chose the ps3.

second the ps3 is assumed to have a better procesor than the 360 i dont know now but when i was in america in jan this was one the playstation stong point over the 360 cause it could offer better game play. but when i look at it now it doesnt mean mush cause there are too many bottle necks like ram and dev trying to take advantage of it. infact it is almost like the games are bulit for the console rater than the other way around. i think in the fucher the game writer will be able to take advantage of it but there is a limt on how long i will wait for them to do this cause i wana be playing not wating. buteven with the bottle nekes it does not preform that bad i think tht it offers the same game play as the 360 which the dev are curently abauseing all the power it can offer

i organly wanted this thred to be for current ps3/360 to share ther thought on ther console the good thing the lies and the bad

for people who are considering to buy one

And what place is there no 360 warranty ?

stop this did you also know that the gpu in the xbox is better then the one in the ps3? if you pick the ps3 pick it because of the games not because of the hardware, they are both the same in that area

i live in niue in the south pacific i dont think my warreny is valid from there

secondly i am not saying all the hardware in the ps3 is better than the 360 but i think some of the basic conponets are more durable comparerd to the 360 which is why i have low hardware melfunctio rate.

You should phone or contact M$ before you assume that.

I would say put a feather in your cap and go eat some pie, but some of the stuff you have mentioned is so ridiculous im just going to say :|

Seriously

:|

RROD is one thing but "30% power used" ..... wtf. really. wtf.

*facepalm*

And you trying to look at the the 'hardware specifications - memory' of the PS3 and 360 - and compare them, while you think the PS3 is using 30% of its 'power'. Really.

Ignorance is bliss.

In all honesty you have noted the worst points of why you chose a PS3. They arent even points, its silly rhetoric.

You could have said 'I rather the games' and finished, without all this kerfuffle.

You should also consider that, since you live in a warm climate the 360 has overheating problems (leading to RROD). I live in Australia and own a PS3 (kept in an upstairs room which gets hot in summer) and have had no problems with heat soak (though in warm wearther the fan does run fast [loud], the system has never even felt warm to the touch (even when the inside room temperature has exceeded 35 degrees celsius).

I decline to comment about the relative power/potential of each console as i do not have enough experiance with such matters but i assume that for a comparable price each system offers a similar performance. I went with the PS3 because I bought it at the same time as my (brilliant) 1080p Bravia TV and the Playstation 3 offered HD movies and games in the same box. If you are considering a future purchase of a HDTV or already own one then the PS3 represents even better value. (Digital Downloads will be possilble on both PS3 and XBOX360).

I would still recommend you contact both MS and Sony to see if you are elegible for any warranty as an expensive next gen console purchase should be made with some sense of security.

Good luck and happy gaming.

lemms tend to go out of control when threads like these occur

but when the PS3 is bashed, most cows tend to accept since it's only a minor problem.

i mean think about it, i can deny 0.02% failure rate, but 33%..? :?

LOL, hes a fanboy now because he chose one console over another? I guess every single gamer in the world is now a biased fanboy because they didnt choose the console of your choice. That, and the fact, that he presented his thread in a civilised, unbiased manner, and you unnecesarily attack him. That sir makes YOU a rabid fanboy.

You should have. He said exactly WHY he got PS3 instead and it's a very valid reason.

Also, how does buying a PS3 instead of a 360 make you a fanboy?

Man, I hate fanboys.
