i am having trouble picking between ps3 or xbox 360 elite

Are you kidding me...?

well, first off, this is the 360 forum. Basically everyone here is a 360 fanboy.

The ps3 has better hardware and can play blu-ray discs, but really, noone cares about blu-ray. Gaming is about playong games, right? THe ps3s weak point is its games. It has no flagship games right now except resistance and maybe, Warhawk or something.

The xbox 360 might not have all the graphical prowess or power as the ps3, but ithas games and a strong sense of comunity. If your gonna game online, the 360 is your best bet. It has many flagship games, halo 3, bioshock, mass effect, fable 2, and many others...

in the end, it all boils down to which you prefer, graphics or games. Though i don't have aps3, i've played on it and whereas it might be cool with its rechargeable controllers and stuff, the game library is absolutely horrible.

they both get the same games...ive had 2 360's red ring to death on me so right now im focusing on my ps3 while its away being fixed...whichever has the most of the games you want just buy...and if u buy a 360 set aside moneys to buy the online...its a really fun service

Just make a list of the games you want to play. Then decide which one has what you want.DZBricktop

Wow, see this is amazing. An answer that actually makes sense when deciding which console to buy. I don't know if people are ready for this kind of logical response. ;)
