i am planning to buy a ps3 ...is it worthy...or a x box will be better?

I would personally go for a PS3. Why? Because I have one. Well for one thing I really like PS3 exclusive games. Another thing to consider for PS3 is the free online gaming that it provides unlike the Xbox which you have to pay for online acess. If you're judging between graphics and the look of your console there is not much difference. try looking at the exclusive games that both machines have, look into what special features each has and read up on reviews and common problems both the xbox and the ps3 have.

PlayStation 3 is more than just a gaming system, it is an entire entertainment experience! Music, photos, videos, Blu-ray movies (unbeatable picture!), and high definition gaming... what more could you need from a gaming system? Not to mention the FREE Playstation Network online gaming. The Playstation store is easy to navigate and always updated with the latest tv episodes, movies, games, demos, etc. The sleek Sony controller doesn't feel too bloated like the xbox 360 controller. I have this system running for hours every night, whether I'm playing online gaming, watching a blu-ray high definition movie, or listening to music. Definitely worth the money!

If you want COD (call of duty), get PS3. You want Halo, get XBOX. If you want online, then get PS3. For XBOX you have to pay for any online activity on games. If you get a PS3 and PlayStation network (PS3 online), then add me at crazeematt1 (exactly as spelled, no capitals).

Well if your looking for graphics and Games try ps3 although it will be more expensive. Xbox also has good graphics and cheaper, I Think.

Weigh the pros and cons of both systems. That way it is an unbiased approach and fanboys won’t be able to say anything.

PS3 Pros:

-Online is FREE

-Less annoying kids/hackers

-Better and MORE exclusive games that come in True HD 1080p *the ones i list here won't for the most part, but many others can* (Infamous, MAG, Metal Gear Solid 4, Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo 5, etc, etc)

-The games are made on Blu ray discs (EXTREMELY HARD to scratch/ruin, the only way I can think of is by taking something sharp to it yourself)

-It can go up to True HD 1080p instead of topping off at HD 720p. (provided you have an HDMI cable and a TV that supports that resolution)

-It is a Blu ray player

-You can browse on the internet

-IT HAS THE LOWEST FAILURE RATE OF ANY SYSTEM TO DATE (that's really important)

-It cannot overheat easily

-Bigger hard drives.

-The PS3 Slim *redesigned from the PS3 Fat* is 33% quieter, smaller, and more efficient (in other words, You'll save money on power bills)

-Look, I can go on and on, but that wouldn't be fair to 360.

PS3 Cons:

-It does not have theatre playback

-It has the Yellow Light of Death (YLOD, HOWEVER THIS HAPPENS VERY RARELY AND IF IT DOES YOU CAN ACTUALLY FIX IT YOURSELF. YES. BY. YOUR. SELF. No extra money thrown away.)

-The online isn't as nice as the 360's where it will switch hosts

Xbox 360 Pros:

-The online has dedicated servers that will swap hosts who have crappy connections

-It has its own exclusives (Halo, Gears of War, Fable, etc.)

-It has a neat theatre playback feature

Xbox 360 Cons:

-It is NOTORIOUS for breaking down (within 2 years. They designed it that way ON PURPOSE to get more money out of you. In other words, they lie saying its a better system)

-It gets the Red Rings of Death (RROD, which forces you to send it in to get repaired which takes away from your fun and experience)

-It overheats easily

-It uses DVD ROMs for its games (VERY EASY to scratch/ruin, and they cannot support True HD 1080p)

-The graphics are good, but not as good. (The reason for this isn't because the system isn't capable or anything. It is. But because they put their games on DVD ROMs, it can't support that resolution. It can only go MAX HD 720p without "upscaling" the graphics to make it LOOK like 1080p. Don't be fooled, its really not even close)

-You'll have to send it in fairly often. (My buddy had to send his 360 in 6 times in ONE YEAR. He had to pay to repair it, plus shipping/handling. That is unacceptable. You want the system to last so you can play it and enjoy it. Not waste more money to fix it.)

-The insides of the 360 are cheap. They will also break (again, Microsoft designed it like that ON PURPOSE)

-Smaller hard drives

-You cannot browse the internet

-Online is NOT free

-360 fanboys are THE WORST and MOST annoying fanboys you'll ever meet

-More hackers and annoying little kids play online

When you weigh the pros and cons, PS3 is the obvious winner in terms of better everything. Everything on the inside of the PS3 was custom designed and built from scratch. The PS3 is designed to last as long as possible whereas the 360 is designed to break down soon so they get more money out of you (as if they need it, they really don't. They just aren't an ethical company). Sony actually thinks very highly of their customers and try to give them a product that will out do the rest. So far, no argument, hands down, they have.

I've played both systems very equally, and I have to say I bought myself a PS3 because the 360 just could not compare. Best investment I ever made. It was worth every penny. I did not once look back or regret it after I got it. My system is now 3 years old and is working like the first day I brought it home. You get way more for your buck with PS3. It also depends on your style of gaming though. Are you just a hardcore gamer? Go 360. Are you a gamer, but also likeconvenientas that are extremely convinient and just make for a better overall experience? Go PS3. The games are pretty much equal, but you'll find the experience of games that are shared more fulfilling on the PS3. It just flows better. You can also adjust your setting to filtre out any and all lag on the PS3 (you need the HDMI for that though). In other words. PS3 IS VERY WORTHY.

Hope that helps.
