Don't get me wrong, I'd actually like to see a serious discussion to find out which console is best, but there are so many people that complain about other systems saying things that are far from facts. This kind of thing usually winds up turning into more of a flame war than an intellegent discussion.

I'm willing to give this a chance, but if I feel things are getting too aggressive then I will probably close it. I just don't want things getting dramatic here.:P

Wii is the worst. I don't really see a big difference between the PS3 and the Xbox. There are very few things. Each one has a flaw that the other does not.

Internet: Xbox- have to pay, but apparently has better connection and less hackers

PS3- free internet, but worse connection and apparently more hackers.

I'd say the better one would depend on if you could afford paying for internet or not.

Graphics: From the graphic comparisons I've seen, either xbox wins or its a tie. The only exception is in AC, where they seem to be biased towards PS3 users. I think Xbox wins this category.

Durability: I have heard rumors that the xbox is less durable from console wars on the internet, but from my own experiences I've known way more people that have broken PS3s than who've broken their xbox. Undecided who wins.

Discs: Some people complain that the xbox has 2 discs for games that the ps3 only needs 1. This doesn't bother me personally, but some people seem to be very upset about it :roll:. PS3 gets a point for this one.

Exclusives: Wii wins for sure. Nothing beats good ol' Mario :P

I would have to say xbox is better in my opinion, but its understandable how people could like the PS3 better.

From graphic comparisons that I've seen, I thought the xbox's were better. I guess it would be different actually playing though.

You have all the consoles right? Which would you say is best? Why do you play the xbox most?

I agree with this. The two consoles are nearly even, but I think PS3 has a slight edge. Hence the slighter newer and more expensive hardware, and Uncharted 3.:P

However, with that being said the PS3 is much harder to develop for. The majority of multiplats look better on 360 because of this.

Does the PS3 or XBOX have blast processing? I don't think so.

Thats true, but at least they didn't pull a PS move. That looks almost exactly like the wii.

Of course then again, didn't the PS2 have something similar to the kinect?

That's a good question. It's between the Gameboy and the Nintendo Ds, but I think the Gameboy would be my favorite.

I like the NDS better because it could play gameboy games :P

I'll never understand why in later versions of the DS they took out the GBA slot.

I think someone told me it was too easy to hack games through the GBA game slot. Then right after they removed it, people found a way to hack through the DS slot...

Halo was the reason to buy the xbox. (y'know this kinda contradicts when you told me you played it when it first came out...)

And Mario games were the reason to buy the gamecube.
