The ps3 to tell you the truth. The 360 is good too though. Buy whatever your little heart desires.

This really belongs in System Wars, but if you can only pick one I would have to say PS3

I have both, and to be quite honest I like the 360 better. Just more friendly interface, and better games.

Dont waste $$$ on a PS3. And I read an article saying that Blu-ray is going to die soon like in 2009. So go for a XBOX360.

I own both as well.. I will agree with Sgthustla that Shooter games play great and feel right on the 360..

Racing games also feel so much more at home then they do on the PS3..

 

But then agian the PS3 (to me) plays best for sports games..

Then theres Video playablity thats so much more user friendly..

 

Its just a matter of what you want to do with a gameing console..

As for Blu-Ray going to be dead on near/around 09.. Ya I dont think so..

Xbox is better in my opinion, but youre going to have to make an informed decision for yourself. Look at the specs for yourself, we arent here to spoon feed you.

360 and heres why. I believe that it has better games and the fact that sony is losing some major exclusives says a whole lot about the PS3. Tekken, DMC, and even Final Fantasy is/are going over to the 360. I have both systems and I just feel that the PS3 is lacking in exclusives. On the plus side, the PS3 has free online play and doubles as a blu-ray player.

As an owner of both systems I can say without bias or some silly ulterior motive that the 360 is the better "console" from a games perspective. You can factor hardware reliability in there if you want and yes the PS3 is more reliable, and also that there is a Blu Ray player which adds an extra layer to what it already can do. I just know personally that if the PS3 did not have a Blu Ray player, I wouldn't have bought one, or if I did buy one, I would have sold it by now. Blu Ray is literally the only reason that box is still being used.

Having had the PS1 and PS2, i had to choose between a PS3, and the 360. Right now, i'm glad i chose the 360 for its games and 3rd party support.

 

Granted I will be missing the great PS franchises (MGS, God of War 3 etc.), however weighting the amount of games, right now i'm still leaning on the 360 simply for the games. I've had the RROD, but i knew of that risk even before i bought a 360. My country isn't even officially supported by Microsoft, so i had to have the RROD repair done by a guy in one of our local forums who did a fantastic job. Then i bought another 360, this time, a falcon. 

 

The PS3 does double as a Blu-Ray player.  But i've experienced a lot of problems with my PS2 when i used it as a DVD player before. The wear and tear of the lens comes too fast, which is probably most people say that if the 360 had the 3RL, Sony has its lens problems.

 

But still, ultimately, the choice is yours. As many have said, depends on what kind of games you want.

You want a X360 just like me. Along with all the games I have, just like me. You want to be just like me in fact. Or I guess you could research out the games you want to play along with what features you really want and then make your own decision... Here's a spoonful... X360 InformationPS3 Information You'll have to look up the games yourself. But for the most part if it is worth playing it is on both. But you will have to do that research yourself.

xbox 360 is superior to playstation 3. while the graphics of the ps3 are slightly better than the xbox's, there are no great games for the ps3. any good game they have came out for xbox 360 and did so well they also released it fo rthe playstation 3. furthermore both grand theft auto and final fantasy were brought to the xbox because not even game developers like sony. sony's goal is to take as much as your money as they can. microsoft at least gives you a good game in the process of overcharging you

Personally I have both and I prefer the PS3 because of Sony makes exclusives that fit me more. LittleBigPlanets good with freinds not when your alone, Gran Turismo 4 and Motorstorm are two different and good racers. When it comes to racing sony doesnt really have a competitor besides Forza Motorsport which to be honest is dissapointing considering that Forza Motorsport 3 is said to be "So massive that it needs two DVD's to fit 400 cars and 100 tracks" while Gran Turismo 4 for the PS2 has abit short of 800 cars which had one disc.

 

In my opinion if youre focusing purely on killing then go with the Xbox 360, Besides Gears of war series it doesnt dissapoint in providing addictive violence. If on the other hand youre more of a racer like myself and is willing to try different games like LittleBigPlanet then go with the PS3.

In my PS3 experiences, LittleBigPlanet, Motorstorm 2, Metal Gear Solid 4 and Warhawk have brought me much enjoyment as well as some multiplatform games.The only shooter I think would be worth getting would be Killzone 2 when it gets released since the first game had such a perfect setting but was limited to the then and now outdated PS2.

 

The Xbox 360 has gotten me addicted with Forza for about 10 hours, Halo 3 when I played with freinds I know. Fable 2 was good but I was dissapointed by the lack of size compared to Oblivion and my favourite, Dead Rising!!!!!.

I have both and honestly say you should do research yourself and if you still cant decide then flip a coin. They both have great games, both have online (PSN doesnt suck like people say if you actually can afford a better cnnect then dial-up), and each has their little system perks. The people saying that sony is losing exclusives because its failing are the last people to listen to. Developers are going multiplatform because it eanrs more money. I have no idea where they got the idea that mircosoft and sony were in the running for prom king and just want to make the other look bad so they fail as a company. You know people used to say that sony was going to run nintendo out of business. Hmmmm i wonder how that turned out.
