    I would say a PS3, I think PS3 will release better titles then the 360 within the next few years till the next console is made.

    I although am getting a 360 first before a PS3, mainly due to my friends who all have 360s. PS3 will have the PS3 Exclusive FFXIII game too.

    I have a PS3.

    I've always been a Playstation person, whenever it came to game systems, I was always a fan of PS because the majority of the RPG's I've played were either for PS one or PS2 back in the day, so when the first Xbox came out I didn't care for one. I've always felt like the PS systems were more fit for like RPG's and the Xbox was more for the shooting/online type games. I know you can play online on PS3 too, but that's just how it seems to me, besides the only game I play online is Little Big Planet XD plus everything that I ever want to play is always for Playstation. There's nothing yet that I want to play enough, that will make me want to buy a 360. The same goes for Wii, I'll probably never get one, the only thing I can think of that I would probably want to play on that, are a few of the Harvest Moons.

    Both systems are top graphics, but I'd go with the Xbox360 for it has the games that interests me the most. The controls and game play as well as selection are better with the Xbox in my opinoin, as well as the online.

    I have a PS3, but I don't own a 360. I also have a Wii, but this thread isn't about that, even though it's a seventh generation console as well. I guess you didn't want this to be a full-blown "console wars" thread.

    I'm not really choosing a side. I think that each system has advantages and disadvantages. I have a PS3, mainly because I wanted a Blu-Ray player and it was (still is?) the cheapest one on the market, and the fact that I really needed one for a few upcoming titles that I have my eye on. So I thought that in the long run, it's a bargain.

    There are a few games that I would like to play that are Xbox 360 exclusives, but the desire to do so is not strong enough to actually go out and buy a 360 just to play them.

    I am a PS3 man through and through but I must say that once in my life I may make an exception and get a 360 mainly due to costs and 360 have better bundles than ps3 at the moment but I would like to own both in due time because I do like games on both consoles.

    i have one of the original 80 gb ps3s that are backwards compatible with ps2 and ps1 games.

    i would not trade it in for the world i can play the ps2 classics along with the ps1 classics. the 10 dollar bin at gamestop is my best friend.

    there are a couple of games that are xbox 360 exclusives that i would like to play but i know people who have xbox 360s so its no big deal.

    long story short i have to choose the ps3 for the all around entertainment.

    I'm surprised how many PS3 owners there are on this site. Given the sales figures of the last year and a half, I would have expected a lot more 360 users. But then again, I guess we didn't know until last year that FF13 would appear on the 360, so perhaps it does make sense, given this site's demographics.

    Anywho, I myself prefer the PS3. I own both consoles, but I only bought the Xbox for its exclusives (Mass Effect, Gears of War, Shadow Complex, etc) and those games which play like shit on the PS3 because the developers are too lazy to learn how to properly code for it.

    There's no denying that the 360 has the better online service, but for a yearly fee, it should. Either way, I don't play games online so I won't be paying for it.

    I bought the PS3 on a gamble. Let's all be honest, up until 2008, it sucked. Like a lot. Then came E3 of 2008 and I saw a lot of potential being offered from Sony. Thankfully my gamble paid off as I've been extremely happy with the content available for the PS3.

    But to shift back to the 360, I want Alan Wake, dammit!

    I like the PS3 over the Xbox360. This being, because the Xbox360 is more then likely to burn up faster then the PS3. Plus I have always preferred Sony over Microsoft always. Also PS3 damn near has every game that Xbox has. Also I love the online store for the PS3. You can download new games with your points and everything. I know 360 has one as well, but I like the PS3 set up better.
    Life or death. Nethire are consider to someone like me. For I am both. Nor death can happen to me, or can life. There is no other like me. For I am one with myself. Nobody else is. That is the way of the immortal. That is the way of Ulteka Mako.

    And the Xbox has damn near every game that the PS3 has. There aren't a whole lot of exclusives these days. Nearly every third party game is a multiplatform affair.

    Sony's first and second party line up (at least lately) has been more expansive than the 360's, I'll give you that. But we're talking quarters to dimes here. It's not a huge difference. In the end, it comes down to which exclusives you prefer.

    Until now!

    Nope. They're porting it to the Xbox 360. I just about had a coranary when I heard that because that title was the ONLY reason why I bought my stupid PS3. Thank god for Little Big Planet, or I would have basically spent alot of money on what is being used as a dust collector right now.

    I used to be a Sony Girl. USED to be. The PS3 has been a massive letdown for me. Between system updates that take forever and a day to upload, then restart, then apply, then restart was enough to make me want to throw it out the window. Not to mention for my gaming tastes there are barely any games out for it. Honestly, it takes them f-o-r-e-v-e-r to release anything for it.

    Then I got intro'd to the 360. I was snotty, didn't want to even give it a chance. Pfffft, Microsoft... I'd think to myself with disdain. But, its grown on me. There are lots of games out for it that I like. Lost Odyssey, Mass Effect, Halo 3 (didn't play the earlier ones), Last Remnant, Fable, Borderlands... although I'm sure some of those have been brought out on the PS3 as well.

    The only thing that the PS3 has going for it (IMO) is the online network is free. With Xbox you have to pay to have a Gold Membership (can't online coop without it). But, C'est la vie in my books. I've got more use out of my Xbox in the past month than I have for the entire duration of owning my PS3 (bought it in Feb/08).

    Meh.

    I'd have to go with the 360 on this, because it has the better online experience (well, this has already been said but you DO have to pay for it).

    So here's what it comes down to :
    A multitasking, decent machine that has a low rate of death but not much online stuff going for it - PS3

    Or a decent though not perfect console that is getting new stuff for it every month. Whether it be in the form of DLC or new games. Also, the online community is huge, and full of friendly... Faces?.. No, Voices. that'll do.
    It does have some real A - Holes though, and a higher rate of breaking. Although mine hasn't yet!

    @ Tiffany- I believe Loaf was referencing Final Fantasy Versus XIII, which is indeed a PS3 exclusive.

    Final Fantasy Versus XIII (ファイナルファンタジー ヴェルサスXIII, Fainaru Fantajī Verusasu Sātīn?) is an action role-playing game developed and published by Square Enix exclusively for the Sony PlayStation 3 video game console.

    I still don't understand this complaint. I could understand one not liking PS3 exclusives and then saying that the PS3 has no exclusive games according to one's taste, or if one only plays 360 exclusives then the PS3 would have no games according to one's tastes, but 90% of the games on both platforms are multiplatform. Assassin's Creed, Dead Space, Borderlands, Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, etc, etc - the majority of games come out for both, so if you like multiplatform games, how can the PS3 have no games for your taste?

    And yeah, Loaf was referring to Versus XIII which, at least so far, is a PS3 exclusive, whenever it comes out.

    The Playstation Network is surprisingly good. It's 100% free, and for performing just under Xbox Live I'd say it's better for what it is.

    The PS3 has better potential in graphics, it just depends on who's making the game. There was that whole thing about how they decided to bring FFXIII to the Xbox as well but the release got pushed way back because they practically had to remake the game because the graphics sucked.

    If you're just looking for a gaming system to have fun with, both are pretty similar. They have games. If you want to get really technical and get to all the details then you could spend an eternity arguing which was better, but in the end what is the point? If you're deciding on which to buy, go to a friend's house that owns them and play it for an evening. Do your research online to find out which games are coming to which system and what fits you best.

    Also, the one thing I've always liked about Xbox is that when they make games for it they add the option to play the music from your own hard drive while you play the games. There are only a few PS3 titles that let you do that (Little Big Planet is one of them), and it just seemed like a cooler thing to have when you have people over to play games.

    Oh, and one final thing: Xbox is for frat boy halo dudes.

    When I first bought my PS3, there was nothin'. I didn't even start liking any sort of FPS until just recently. Okay, there was Drake's Fortune. That was pretty, graphics wise, but I still didn't overly enjoy the game. Then there was LBP, which was freaking awesome.

    After that I got so disgruntled with the constant system updates that took way too long (especially considering I had a baby, and time is preciously few) that I gave up on playing anything on it and played everything on my Xbox. Now, if I have the choice I will more often than not choose to play it on my Xbox, not the PS3.

    Ahh, yes, back in 2006-2007 I would completely agree that there was nothing to play. Although I thought Uncharted was an awesome game (and the second one is even better), I can understand your frustrations during that time.

    But times have changed. Sony is once more a legitimate player. I won't be so pompous as to claim it's the better choice (though for me it is), but it does have games to play these days, even if you'd rather play most on the 360.

    Until now!

    I'm a Sony fan. Always have been and always will. Playing games on an Xbox doesn't feel right, but I guess that's because I'm not used to it. *shrug*

    I got a PS3 because my brother got a 360. That's not to say I'd have got a 360 if he hadn't though. He only got a 360 because it was cheaper than a PS3 at the time. I'm glad I got the PS3 because of the exclusives out/coming out. I love rubbing Heavy Rain and Uncharted 2 in his face. Hah.

    He counter attacks with Fable 1 and 2. B*tch.

    I've never had an issue with the PSN either - anything that has gone wrong has been to do with a games servers or my connection, because the laptop loses internet at the same time too. It's rare for me that anything goes wrong too. Was it mentioned that it is also free?

    Only downside for me is the amounts of memory a game takes up in the game data utility. Five GB for MGS4...

    You can chalk this up to be a problem with PSN. One of the reasons why Xbox Live is better than PSN (ie more reliable) is because Microsoft maintains its owns servers rather than giving that responsibility to individual developers. Any game server that is down is a problem with PSN so long as you're comparing it to Xbox Live.

    Yeah, I got my PS3 to play LittleBigPlanet though after that it sort of sat for a while. Since I was still heavily playing my PS2 because it was still getting all of the RPGs. Though I've played on my PS3 a lot more frequently in the last year and I don't recall having inordinate amounts of system updates and they were generally brief for me.

    I have a PS3 mainly because I have personal issues with Microsoft and the 360. People at work said I was a PS3 fan or Sony fan and that's not really the case. I plan on buying a Wii eventually, probably when the next Zelda comes out. I like Nintendo and I like Sony, I just don't like Microsoft so I won't purchase any of their products. Will I play it, sure at a friends house I'm open to playing, but they won't see a cent of my money.

    But for me PS3 has all of the games I want to play. And I can't wait for Heavy Rain, I got so excited about that game back when they have a strange teaser trailer with a woman in a room acting out a scene. Not to mention there is like 4 or 5 really important games for me coming out from January to March. Isn't Heavy Rain out in March or something? I'm going to be broke. White Knight Chronicles, FFXIII, Heavy Rain, Star Ocean 4 and Record of Agarest War, plus there's Sakura Wars V for the PS2. ^^ Ah the PS2 still gets some love and its the first Sakura Wars US release too. And there's God of War III for anyone that wants that, MAG for the FPS people, FFXIV for MMO people, 3D Dot Heroes for an awesome old school RPG people. I suspect that we'll be getting Tales of Vesperia too, since the 360 version was a beta. Boy were the 360 people upset about that.

    Everyone's got to try out Demon's Souls as well.

    But for me its the PS3 because I love JRPGs and so I'll keep picking them up. Next year is going to be crazy for anyone interested in games.
    Curious? There's no limits but your own imagination.

    Sooner or later Xbox will play out, a person can only play so many shooters before they want something else. The PS3 has better downloadable games(almost every great PS1 title), free online, and is much less likely to die within ther first few hours of use. I had an Xbox 360 and had to keep a fan running beside it during use to cool it but PS3s have no overheating issue. Sont is still far superior to Microsoft as a game console maker and I doubt that will change anytime soon.
    I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes...or should I?

    You know, it's unfair for me to correct the "PS3 has no games" stereotype without correcting the equally erroneous "360 only has shooters" stereotype. Have you ever actually looked at the 360's library? It's got a hell of a lot more than shooters available. This will be my third time stating it now, but most games are multiplatform. And also, let's look at some of the exclusives Sony has pushed: Resistance 1 and 2 (and perhaps 3 in the future) - shooter. Killzone 2 - shooter. MAG - shooter. You can't rightly say that the 360 is the "shooter console". It simply isn't true. Both consoles have a shit ton of shooters because that's what's popular these days.

    Until now!

    I Would Go With The PS3, Just Cause, Better Graphics, Blue Ray Disc Player Built-In(Mainly Cause PS3 Games Are Blue Ray Discs...LOL) Awesome Games, Even Though Not That Many Just Yet, Still Gonna Be Ill. For Upcoming FF Games, The XBOX 360 Will Only Have One Out Of Three Of Them, While For The PS3 There Will Be 2 Out Of The Three, With Probly Better Graphics Because Its PS3 =)

    Anyway, I Will Be Getting Both The PS3 And The XBOX 360 At Some Point, So It Wouldn't Really Matter...I Guess You Can Say That I Am A Collector...LOL

    This Is Just My Opinion, Go With Whatever You Guys Wanna Go With, I Don't Judge =)

    Happy Posting Guys

    I truly love Sony,but I own a 360. I hate Microsoft and their crappy manufacturing and return policies. I have had my 360 for about a year and 4 months. Five months ago my 360 started messing up(such as unable to read BRAND NEW discs,shutting off randomly,and being a piece of sh** console). However,I have a huge 360 game library that I would never get rid of. I enjoy a lot of the games on the 360,but PS3s games look so much better.

    All in all I think PS3 is the better of the two systems. It has Blue Ray,cooler looking games(GOD OF WAR,MAG,and DEMON SOULS),and free PSN.

    And all the people who are saying that free PSN is a reason that the PS3 is better - for the price Xbox users pay, the developers get better deals on selling DLC via Xbox Live than they would on PSN. I remember reading somewhere that Sony charges developers extra based on memory size and expected sales for DLC.

    Sony charges the developers per gigabyte downloaded. Something like 10 cents per gig. It sounds small, but when a demo is say a gig and a million people download it, that's 100,000 right there.

    Regarding this whole PSN thing though, take a look at this. Kotaku - Survey that states Sony is researching the possibilities of a premium PSN service. Supposedly it's only going to be features on top of what's currently available, so what is available now will still be free, but based on how much money Microsoft makes off of Xbox Live, Sony is stupid not to try this. None of this is official keep in mind.

    Until now!

    I own both systems, recently bought a PS3. I must say the only huge difference in the two is that PS3 has blue-ray player. As Jin said most games are multiplatform, so you don't have to worry about it. The graphics are damn near the same, PS3 has a slight edge over 360.

    I have to go with 360, but that is only because I like Halo, and Gears. Play em all the damn time, and they are for 360 not PS3.

    I mentioned their crappy return policy for a reason. Unfortunatly,since I didn't have the receipt,and I called 7 days after the warranty expired,I couldn't return it. Thanks for mentioning it though. I'm glad that someone was able to exchange their messed up system for another one.

    I have owned both consoles and I think the 360 and ps3 have similar features like the dashboard and the xmb , removable hdds, hi-def capabilities. The graphics for both systems are pretty close. Both have a wide selection of games. I like how the ps3's xmb is more organized than the 360's dashboard. I would just get the console that has more games for it that you like and go with it. I'm personally a sony fan.
