id go with the 360 but there are some things that are keeping me from doing that

i cant connect to xbl(not supported where i live)for one and im pretty much gonna be gaming alone for the most of the time...

so i was thinking of getting a ps3 cause i think i can use psn...i have no problems downloading stuff onto my psp but at the same time 360 games here are waaaaaaaaaay cheaper then ps3 games where i live

also the games are keeping me from buying either system aswell...

for ps3 -disgaea,GoW,ratchet and clank,KoH,

for 360-fable 2,infinite undiscovery,too human(not listing shooters cause it seems pointless paying $60 for 8 hours of gameplay)

my question is this which would you recommend,which has/will have more games,which would give me a better single player experience,has a brighter future

no fanboy comments please

Judging by your list of games, go Xbox. The games are cheaper where you live anyway.

But if you're going for online play, go PS3. Since it's available for you.

Either way, you get a fantastic console!

360 is good, ps3 is good. both are improvements on there predecessors. dont be a fanboy. live is so much better, the new dashboard is better than on the old xbox. clearly your a fanboy and were not gonna get through to you. fanboys have there own logic that makes no sense and just spew out crap.

ok first of all i am not a fanboy.

second, i said the 360 would be like the original WHEN the ADD-ONS arent there. like the xbox live. 360 is nothing without the live. and dashboard doesnt make someone wat to buy a 360, its the other stuff that the 360 has to show like the graphics and the live power. who wastes 400 just for a new dashboard?

ok whatever.

its all about the games and 360 has the best of everything, its got shooters, rpgs, rts's, it some what lacks in platform but banjo looks great. 360 has the best overall library out right now and that is something fanboys may argue but anyone that owns a 360, ps3, wii in some combo knows it.

so i was thinking of getting a ps3 cause i think i can use psn...i have no problems downloading stuff onto my psp but at the same time 360 games here are waaaaaaaaaay cheaper then ps3 games where i live

also the games are keeping me from buying either system aswell...

for ps3 -disgaea,GoW,ratchet and clank,KoH,

for 360-fable 2,infinite undiscovery,too human(not listing shooters cause it seems pointless paying $60 for 8 hours of gameplay)

my question is this which would you recommend,which has/will have more games,which would give me a better single player experience,has a brighter future

no fanboy comments please inzombiak

That's impossible if you can not connect to Live then you can not get PSN. How could you get PSN but not Live:roll: Either way get an Elite 360 it smokes the PS3 in games. Sure PS3 has some decent games. But honestly 360 has a far bigger libary and much better games coming out in the near future. And if you play mostly single player it's a no brainer 360 has a rack load of single player rpg games already and a ton on the way.

alrite buddy, i like the 360 too, i wish i had one but poor :(. and i am not saying the 360 is bad. but its bad without the add-ons. especially live, the biggest factor of 360.

first of you can get all the content of live for free. you have to pay 50 bucks a year to get to play online and maybe get some content like demos earlier than silver account thats it. what other add ons do you need wireless. well i have a ps3 and wirelessy it sucks for download speeds compared to my 360 wirelessly. its not my connection in any way since there in the same location connected to the same router with the same connection strength. its that xbl has better speeds than psn so far period.

alrite fine w.e u say, u just dont get wat i am trying to say lol, that its just funny.i never saked for all that information and i already noe all that stuff. You just think i am trying to say that psn is better than xbl, i never said that. i am not even goin to argue anmore. hopefully someone else explains you.

Donwoogie's Guide to Console Choice

Do you play online regularly and are happy to pay a reasonable subscription fee? Get an Xbox 360

Do you play online infrequently and want a free online gaming service? Get a PS3

Do you want the console with the largest library of games? Get an Xbox 360

Do you want a console capable of functioning as a media hub? Get a PS3

Do you use a lot of HDD space and want to have the ability to easily put in a cheap very large HDD? Get a PS3

Do you want a Blu-Ray movie player? Get a PS3

Are you on a tight budget? Get an Xbox 360

Would you be angry if your console broke down and you had to send it off to be replaced (free of charge)? Get a PS3

Do you want a more streamlined, but closed system that seamlessly integrates all features in game and out? Get an Xbox 360

Do you want customisability and an open, but less seamless system? Get a PS3

Do you want the largest choice of DLC (some free, most at reasonable price)? Get an Xbox 360


In addition, consider past, present and future games and decide which game list you want more.

Also, look at controller preferance.

If you can't get online with X360, definetly get a PS3.

Online is a huge part of this generations games.
