xbox 360 vs ps3 honest comparison?

Now if all the 360 owners finally conceded to these facts.

I too did the research when buying my 7th gen consoel ( its quite a expenisve purchase for astudent) and decdied Ps3 was creme of the crop.

I like how hte 360 owners that have replied have said 360 is getting Blu-Ray, its not MS have constantly put out any rumours, one main reason is Blu-Ray is a Sony technolgy, Ie the company that also makes the PS3. Toshiba made HD-DVD so it was console netral.

other points:

-After gettign all the accesoris to bring 360 upto what Ps3 coames wiht in the box is £335 comapred to £300 for a Ps3, and thats for the 360 having less storage, an obsolete HD palyer and its £50 extra ontop of htat each year.

-PSN soons gets Home whihc lets you interacxt in a 3d envorimnt not just using hte IM or voice chat. it will also let you join gmaes with people, watch videos with firends and have your own room.

-There are more 360's in the wild than Ps3's, however this figure may be counting in RROD replcamnets.

But currnetly Ps3 is ourtselling 360 on week by week slaes buy many thousnads a week.

Ps3 gmaes have a higher "Attach Rate" ( A higher percentage of owners will buy gmaes) ie more Ps3 owners buy gmaes for their console.

-Blu-Ray allows for gmaes hte 360 just cnat play becuase fo the size of DVD -

Rage is now a few levels less becuase 360 jsut cnat cope with the space, whihc menas the 360 hardware is making gmaes worse for PC and Ps3 owners

LBP is 40GB, so that is PS3 only ( and uses mroe than the 3 cores 360 has)

MGS4 wanted to be more than 50GB so will never be on 360. -

Hideo Kojima: [Sighs] Well, it's a real difficult question to answer right now... it's difficult to recreate the same MGS4 on the current 360 because of the size of the media and things like that. Also, technology-wise, the 360 is very different to the PS3, and because MGS4 was optimised for the PS3 it is probably not possible.

FFXIII will be on multiple discs, and compressed at that, however i persoanlly have a bet with my mate S-E will pull the plug on making hte 360 port. look at teh stock owners of S-E to see why, and read their intervies carefully.

Media wise the Ps3 is defeintly superior, apart form the Blu-Ray it cna also upscale on all models, 360 has only recently introduced that abilty with the HDMI equiped ones.

and browsing stored media is alot easier than on the Blades interface, though the NXE interface update in autumn may change that.

The price cut does make the 360 more intresting propostion, and I am eyieng one up ( I HAVE to paly Fable2 with my mates),

I would say the current prices of hte console does represent the Value of the console, It was only £50 less than PS3 before(meaning my above price comparison origianly was quite a bit higher) whihc £50 extra to get Blu-Ray bundled in and a 20GB larger HDD is great offer, but now its £100 less the lack of Blu-Ray in a 360 isnt too bad. actually the Wii comapred to the new Arcade price looksreally expensive now.

Retarded things 360 fanboys will say:

"Ps3 is too expensive", but "XBL is better becuase you have to pay for it, and you get what you pay for". Hmm do i see a contradiction.

I have all three systems. I am 16 years old and I'll tell you what I do and play the most on the systems:

PS3 - This one is all mine! Not my sisters, not my parents, not my friends, mine! I am not risking having my little sister brake my girlfriend (PS3). I'll let my friends play it but under my supervision. You're probably thinking.. Wow, this guy loves his PS3. And the answer is YES! I do!

Xbox 360 - I liked this console at first. After you get paying for the online It's okay I guess. But people are always saying that the online is better for the xbox 360. I don't get that. It's the same in my opinion. I think they only say that just because they have to pay $60 for online. Anyway.. I don't play it anymore because I got annoyed of all the little 10 year olds playing Live. Not only that..But I have gotten the RROD like twice.

Wii - This is the one my sister ALWAYS plays. I personally don't like the Wii because It has no shooter games. The conduit looks gay, and all the others are stupid. If your young, and still like mario, then the Wii is for you. The Wii is not ment for shooters!

Don't forget that Xbox is more popular and has higher sales figure than PS3 not necessarily because it is the best game console. Xbox came out in the market before PS3 that's why it has more games and more people own one than PS3. And one of the more obvious reason right now why people are still buying Xbox, is because it is so much cheaper than the PS3. Sony is a hardware company. Microsoft is a software company. This is the main reason why Sony has more reliable and durable consoles. Software errors can easily be corrected with updates. Hardware failures like in the case of Xbox's RROD are irrepairable that's why it has to be replaced. And some people who owns Xbox had 4 exchanges already because of this problem. Me, I didn't think twice. I didn't read reviews and opinion. I know I should go for Sony.

I kinda Agree,

Too Have Both is the Best PS3/360 are basically half so if you have both you get everything,

360 has stronger GPU or something like that,

and the Failure rate dropped by 20%

Both have different Advantages, and Disadvantages,

I have Both instead of having 1 and its way better,

Go for the ps3. The online service will only countinue to improve. probably a good upgrade when home comes out. the cheaper x-box with a blue-ray add on will probably cost the same as the ps.and does 360 have built in wi-fi i don't think so.

Let me make it short, I bought a 360, but I wish I had bought a ps3. Put aside better graphics, blu-ray, and comfort, with a 360 you always have the "red rings" to worry about.

I work in a shipping retail store, and I have to ship back about 15 of the Xbox game systems a week to the repair center. I also live in a small town, so who knows what other shipping centers ship back. I have never shipped back a ps3 to get repaired.

I used to think 360 was better too,now PS3 all checks for me.

P.S:I'm getting one in 51 days time.

Personally I prefer a ps3, but the xbox is ok and a bit cheaperplus, the ps3 is also the only console able to reach 1080P hi-def. yes the ps3 is bulkier, but you can put lapto hardrives in it so you do not have to buy one from Sony, allowing you to (and Ihave seen a laptop with this much memory) a terabyte!(1,024 gigs) online is free, but I gotta hand it to Xbox, they are good @ online.

Xbox 360 is the way to go because it always comes out on top get a ps3 when it becomes good (if that will ever happen) plus there was recently a price drop of the xbox 360 so now is a perfect time to buy a xbox 360 plus it is getting a blu ray disc reader add on like the hd dvd add on soon
