PS3 - $600

360 - $400 (or $480)

can we put these stupid threads to rest already? its getting old

caje47

Ya just started one. T.T

to prove a point

theres no add-ons, no nothing...its 600 vs 400, done

 

No add-ons because the PS3 comes with them and the X360 doesn't.

Yeah! like the high def cables and the headset.......oh wait!

It's true that casuals are too stupid to see past the initial price differences. But saying this is just admitting you're as naive and ignorant as they are. 360 is cheaper to start with. If you play XBL, it's more expensive over 4-5 years, if you need Wifi in your house, it's an extra $100, want to play HD movies? - $200, want to recharge your controllers? - $20 each, want an HDD upgrade? - $180 (when the 120GB generic ones for PS3 cost around $80). If you want/need ANY and I mean ANY of the 360's accessories or services then you are paying the same or a hell of a lot more than for a PS3, period. Saying anything otherwise is just admitting you're an ignorant casual. Saying MS's pricing scheme is screwing everybody but will help win because people are too stupid to think of future costs, then yes, there is a point there.

That is so true. My ps3 cost $599 plus the hdmi cable $30 plus resistance and vf5 $120. Thats $749. My 360 cost $399 plus the charging cable $20 plus Gears plus FEAR plus Lost planet plus Dead Rising plus Condemned plus Crackdown plus Battle Stations Midway plus Star Trek Legacy and now I have to spend even more money on Command and Conquer 3, and I think I am forgetting a game or two, and a year of live $4. That's $999! What a rip!

[QUOTE="T-Aldous"]Also, in the Nov. 2006 edition of PSM, on page 11 in the bottom right corner, it says the Def Jam Icon is fully maxing out the ps3. "Every last bit of memory and processing power is being used to make this game what it is." And that is a direct quote from your own magazine! LOL And to make it worse the same game is on the 360. So how is that for a power comparison of the two systems?

That's either developer hype, or Icons is an extremely sloppily coded game.

Maybe both. It just can't stand it when a cow says that gears is all the 360 has and they seem to think that the ps3 is limitless. So, I just love pointing this out to show them! I just can't stand fanboys. It makes me happy to show them up!

"Then to top it off, multi-platform titles are universally better on the 360, which leaves me with no reason to buy a PS3."

 

was that a joke? fight night round 3looks better on the ps3 so does virtua tennis and oblivion AND nba 2k7 and those are just the titles i own that ican state the fact they look better. im sure there is more multiplats that look better too but im not gonna sit here and lie and say they look better. have to see for yourself. which obviously you havent. fan boy

Marka1700

I think you're in denial.

Fight Night Round 3 - PS3: 8.2 "Most of the changes to the PlayStation 3 version of the game are hardly noticeable..."
Fight Night Round 3 - 360: 8.3 (better)

Virtua Tennis 3 - PS3: 8.2 "The Xbox 360 and PS3 versions are nearly identical..." no online
Virtua Tennis 3 - 360: 8.4 (better)

Oblivion - PS3: 9.5 "slightly annoying performance issues."
Oblivion - 360: 9.6 (better)

Splinter Cell Double Agent - PS3: 8.0
Splinter Cell Double Agent - 360: 8.5 (better)

etc...

If they're better on PS3 why aren't the reviews reversed?

 

I'm willing to bet you'll get a PS3 within a year from now. Those reviews between the 2 consoles are so small, your holding it against it .

 

yay more waiting.

 

Im not even close to wow'd by anything yet, hmm 360 gears of war looks amazing? No not really, if i wanted a slow paced game with sleek textures and no depth, it would be amazing. A 2 year old PC as is today is superior to anything i have seen from any system, oblivion looks good on 360/ps3 sure, but it looked alot more impressive on PC when it first came out. Gears of war? I'd easily take a generic PC shooter with mildy decent graphics, that i can spend 8 hours plus without having to rely on a **** multiplayer and one of the most repetitive scenario's I have ever seen. Oh a broke wall? Perhaps i should hide behind it. Oh a barrel, Perhaps i should hide behind it.WOWZORS

 

Don't lie to yourself for god's sake

Well then nothing is going to wow you this entire generation. Gears has really already maxed out 360 for visuals. PC in a box hardware gets maxed within a year, Xbox prettymuch proved that. Abnormal hardware like PS2 takes 5 years to fully mature.... the difference between even late year 1 AAA games like Devil May Cry and late gen like DMC3 and GoW is incredible. The first wave of PORTS from 360 to PS3 are on average equal and the year one exclusives are better than anything 360 has. If PS3 turns out anything like PS2, within 2 years there will be a definative difference akin to Xbox vs. PS2.Lazy_Boy88

 

And it didn't gears used 50% of the 360 power, u = fail.

 

30-40 % Epic said.

Yes we all know that Microsoft's Xbox 360 sold over 10 million units. But what people don't see is that the Xbox 360 isn't what it was hyped up to be in terms of console sales. You wanna know why. Its because almost every person who purchased a Xbox 360 bought two or more units. Everybody that I know who had a Xbox 360 bought two or more units. I even know someone who went through 4 of them. Granted not every body bought more then one but mostly everybody and here is why. The Xbox 360 just doesn't last long. Overheating was one of many things that happened with the Xbox 360. Believe me 10 million people don't have the Xbox 360. Maybe 5-6 million but not over 10 million.

 

.....do you see how silly that sounds?

The difference is the 360's are under warranty, and did not have to be rebought. Unless you were lucky, you had to purchase a new ps2. I am on my 3rd on right now. All three of them counted as sales.

[QUOTE="T-Aldous"][QUOTE="FullMetal22"][QUOTE="Fruity_Fantasy"]

[QUOTE="Ibacai"]Resistance, Motorstorm, VF5, Tekken : DR, and all the multiplats. I fail to see "no games".ironwarrior2

All half assed games with boring online. Nobody using voice, some games hardly have anybody playing, randomly dissconnecting Blue Tooth controller - you can keep it.

I got my ps3 at launch and haven't had any "random bluetooth disconnects." Was that you saying that or you reading too much of gamespot.

Read the Feb. 2007 edition of PSM. On page 62, in the comparison of the ps3 and the 360 controllers it talks about the wireless contoller on the ps3 losing sync.

no that has NEVER happened to me and i've had mive for 2 months

In all fairness, it says that it happened to only half of the PSM staff. Not all of them.
