ps3 or xbox360?

[kelly]

Guys, i have never played any of the consoles before but i do know the hardware aspects of the PS3.

PS3 is one helluva of a hardware.For starters , PS3 is not a product made by Sony only. Its a product resulted due to the combined effort of 3 big companies namely Sony, Toshiba, and IBM.
The soul of the PS3 is the Cell Broadband engine, which contains not one or two processors but 9 processors in it !! ,( 1 Power processors element (PPE) , 8 Synergistic Processor element (SPE) . )

Just imagine, even when Intel and AMD were battling each other with their petty dual core processors way back in 2005, Sony created PS3 in their own style,!!

Coming to the bandwidth , the Cell broadband engine has an enormous bandwidth. Upto 25 GB/s Memory bandwidth and 75 GB /s of I/O bandwidth.( trust me thats one helluva bandwidth)

When you buy PS3 , you don't just buy " yet another console " ... you buy a complete entertainment system
.
So, hardware wise, imo PS3 beats the crap out of Xbox 360. I am not aware of the games of either of them, but from hardware persective thumbs up for PS3.

I dont think that there is a huge difference between the two because when you look at cross platform games they tend to be the same graphics wise. Yes the ps3 has a lot more power but which companies are going to create a totally different game for the ps3 to utilize all of its graphics power.

PS3, since it has FF XIII and Versus XIII. I'm a big FF fan

Those will be released on the Xbox 360 as well.

Those will be released on the Xbox 360 as well.

FF XIII is, but Versus XIII is PS3 exclusive for now.

you can mod a xbox 360, therefore xbox games can be free.....

and for the ps3 get ready to drop $60 a game :)

I would choose an xbox 360 because of live, but if you don't have live, it's pretty boring.

[Balraj]

I think xbox 360 has a much better interface than PS3 who agrees with me?


and you can say that again^ without Live its very boring playing the same game over and over....you need to switch it up every now and then and play against someone new..

[deathxxl]

maybe buy both of them and paly always new and beautiful games?

PS3's online is crap in comparison, but also cheaper (it's free!)

xbox 360 because of the harddrive flash

Freaking ps3 of course, I can't imagine a life without playing MGS4.

XBOX360 = hardcore egoshooter (COD 4-6),Casualgames(XBLA,Shadow Complex...)
PS3 = Sportgames (FIFA10,Madden),Adventures

But you can play Sportgames or Adventures on Xbox360 too.
Or Egoshooters and some Casualgames (Flower...) on PS3 too.

Definetly PS3, but first person shooters don't come into the decision. FPS should always be played on the computer.

I choose PS3 cause of bluray, and awesome graphics

PS3.
cause my XBOX360 got fucked 2 months before it celebreated a year.
those fucking cheap xbox components don't last over a few months!
