I've been trying to decide for a while on which system to get. I like the xbox 360 and I do think it currently has better games but i also think that the ps3 easily has the potential to become a better system. I would just like some help choosing maybe some pros and cons. As for games im getting when i purchase either system im almost definitly getting either gta iv or nhl 09 as my first game and their both multi platform.

If you get a 360, you'll go through about 3 of them, get a ps3, you'll only need one.

If you want to enjoy better games better online better experience choose 360, if you want to be another Cow and play games with dolls and create your own cute little levels ( LBP ) choose ps3 , If you want to watch a very good movie ( mgs4 ) choose the ps3 or if you want to play TEH MASSIVE ACTION GAME , HOW AWESOME IS NOT MASSIVE ACTION GAME ? buy ps3.

If you wanna play the real thang like Geow 2 shotting heads of , Executing like the executioner buy 360. Or if you want to gangbang and cut heads of buy fable 2 , 360. Or just staright killin some huge ass covenants buy Halo wars.

Tell that to the people walking into a UPS store because of the DRE, or because of a corrupted HDD.

??? That makes no sense, I doubt 99% of PS3 owners even know what you are talking about.

@evsondey PS3 is taking the lead. X360 had the best 2006 games and is still holding onto that, but so far right now for 2008 PS3 has had the better games. PS3 is also leading X360 in sales. The two games for X360 and what all X360 owners are waiting and waiting for is Gears 2 and Fable 2, but you don't need an X360. Just get them on PC.

Based on those 2 games, GTA 4 on the 360 will be the better choice if you are interested in the exclusive downloadable content, and since NHL 09 isn't out yet, i dunno about that. Sports games have generally been better on the 360, but i'd say it's about even now. Just look at lists of games for the two consoles, and if nothing gets your attention then you can't go wrong with either one.

??? That makes no sense, I doubt 99% of PS3 owners even know what you are talking about.- So does that mean they don't exist? Look them up.

@evsondey PS3 is taking the lead- taking the lead? As if you know for sure that will happen?. X360 had the best 2006 games and is still holding onto that, but so far right now for 2008 PS3 has had the better games- Sure, maybe if he likes MGS4. The 360 has also had Lost Oddyssey and Ninja Gaiden 2 so far this year. PS3 is also leading X360 in sales- No it's not :?. The two games for X360 and what all X360 owners are waiting and waiting for is Gears 2 and Fable 2, but you don't need an X360- He couldn't play them on a ps3, and maybe he doesn't have or can't afford a gaming PC. And what about Banjo 3, Too Human, Left 4 Dead,Infinite Undiscovery, Tales of Vesperia, as well as lots of great XBLA titles like Braid and Geo Wars 2? I could list more that might get his attention, don't act like your an some kind of expert on gamers. Just get them on PC- Link???

And although he didn't say it, i don't think he appreciates fanboyism in this thread.

The 360 has a larger variety of better games if you don't have a modern gaming PC.

Xbox 360 Pros: Xbox Live

Cons : RROD :evil: , pay to play on-line, expensive console

PS3 Pros: free on-line, Reliable

Cons: expensive console

your individual preference of exclusive games is the main decision point that you have to make up your own mind about. I personally prefer the 360's exclusive games.

You are looking for a GAME console. Buy the console with the highest rated and widest selection of GAMES. Buy the Xbox 360. Seriously this should be a no-brainer.

Or you could just say. Do you have enough money to be able to play online? And get all the other crap that microsoft makes you purchase? Yea, just for a PS3. At least the online is free, and how the hell could you compare it? Which has better online service, NDS, or 360?

There you said it yourself, potential. The 360 also has the potential to leave the PS3 in the dust. It is a gamble no matter what you pick. I'm only trying to help you out. Go to www.gametrailers.comlook at each systems library of games, you make your decision off of that. That is really the only help I could give you.

Alright TC, here it is. Do you feel you will have to play GoW 3, KZ2, inFamous, LBP? then PS3, baby. NHL 09 (one of my faves), GTA 4 are what you said. Both play on either system, but GTA is longer and more involved on 360 due to DLC. Plus your choices are multiplat, the go with the less expensive option. If PS3 exclusives are your bag then the answer is made for you. If your favorites tend to be multis and one withDLC only available on 360 the it's done. Either way enjoy your new system, after all their just video games.

Get a PS3. Really good games are coming out soon and there are already a lot of good ones. Plus free online and a blu-ray player. I like the first party games on playstation more than the ones on 360. The only reason I bought a 360 was for Mass Effect.

Well seeing most of the post on these threads are biased let me help you:

If you plan on playing online alot, are strapped for cash, are more interested with multiplats, and want a more diverse system then choose a 360.

If you have alot of money to spend, are a movie freak, and like FPS, Adventure games, and platformers then buy the PS3.

If you still don't know what to buy, then chosse the cconsole most of your friends have. Hope I help. ;)

Both have good games out right now (many of them multiplatform) but when I look ahead at potential purchases/games that just look good...

- (IMO) -

360: Halo: ODST, Alan Wake, Splinter Cell

PS3: God Of War 3, Uncharted 2, Gran Turismo 5, Heavy Rain

And honestly, if your on the fence and want to see what is coming up for the ps3 and/or 360, wait till next week (e3) to make your decision. Get a good idea of what exactly the potential is.

Well if your gonna get GTA IV then I'd say 360 for the episodic content (L+D and Ballad of Gay Tony), I'd also recommend leaning toward the console your friends have or what most of them have.

Dude you keep saying "we". Do you work for Sony? Do you want to offer advice based off of what the TC stated or sell him a console?

The ps3 look at npd numbers the 360 drop the price and still the ps3 outsell it. the 360 need to drop to 110 bucks to be competiive again. the future of he ps3 look bright.fjburgos
Than why Did the PS3 sell only 21 million while the 360 sold 28 million while the wii sold over 50 million?the PS3s future is not bright if it gets out-sold again
