PS3 is way better. It doesnt break down like an xbox360 or start on fire
-it has better graphics.
-the blu ray disk holds more memory so longer gameplay
-blu ray is scratch resistant so its much harder to get scratches and ruin your games
-free online play
-blu ray dvd player
-exclusive titles which are more realistic than the exclusive titles like halo, gears of war for xbox
-xbox may seem like its cheap but thats for the 256mb xbox. which is very little memory to hold your game files.. so if u spend money on all there products like xbox live and points. and other shitty gear.. the total will be more than a ps3
-there is cheap or free downloadable content. for ps3
I can see why more people bought the 360 in 2006 and 2007. But now, in 2008, I can't understand why people would choose the 360 over the PS3. It's like choosing HD DVD vs. Blu-ray. The facts and reasons are so clear. The advantages the 360 had over the PS3 seem to be vanishing or have vanished altogether. Worse, the disadvantages have become more apparent.
The 360 no longer enjoys the following advantages:
1. Multiplatform games were better on the 360. In 2008, this is no longer true. According to Gamepro, after analyzing the last 4 major mulitplats, recent multiplats are better on the PS3.
2. Monthly world-wide sales. In 2008, this is no longer true. The PS3 even sold more in the USA in January, and most likely in February, too.
3. Exclusive games were better on the 360. In 2008, smart money says the PS3 will have bigger, better exclusives.
4. HD movies capability. Now with HD DVD dead, there's no way to watch 1080p HD movies. The PS3 is widely considered the best Blu-ray player.
5. Positive press. In 2006 and 2007, the 360 seemed to have a lot of positive press while the PS3 had to endure many negative attacks. In 2008, it's the PS3 that seems to have a better press.
6. In 2006 and 2007, retailers like Best Buy usually encouraged their customers to buy the 360 because it had more games. In 2008, however, there are reports, it seems reasonable to me, that Best Buy and other retailers prefer to sell the PS3 instead of the 360, because by selling the PS3, they can also expect customers to buy Blu-ray movies and other HD products, like TVs.
7. Rumbe. Last year, the 360 had rumble but the PS3 didn't. This year, the PS3 added rumble. With motion sensing, controller advantage now goes to the PS3.
The 360's disadvantages remain and are now more apparent:
1. Lack of disk space by using DVD9. In 2008, developers no longer need to spend much time creating game engines. Now they can spend more time creating content, lots of content. The PS3's Blu-ray becomes more and more useful. Apprently, Metal Gear Solid 4 uses ALL of the 50 gig in Blu-ray. Imagine that. DVD9 has only 8.5 gigs.
2. Processing power. In 2006 and 2007, the 360 seems to more than hold its own vs. the PS3 in terms of game graphics. Now in 2008, developers, especially Sony's first party ones, seem more determined to take advantage of the Cell processor to make kick-*** games. The PS3's cell processor allows Insomniac to create amazing graphics with large enviroments and 60 players on-line. Likewise, Kilzone 2 seems to show how the PS3's power cannot be matched by any game on the 360.
3. Reliability issues. Still a major, major problem for the 360. Every day, it seems, someone make a post that their 360 has reliabilty issues like the Red Ring of Death or Disk read problems. Towards the end of this year, when many 360s start to run out of warranty, expect hear an uproar from angry gamers.
4. The 360 continues to be the most anti-casual of the 3 consoles. LIVE fees must be paid to play online and it's best games usually require online play. The best games on the 360, too are hard-core. After 5 years of ownership, LIVE fees will add up to $250, which means it costs more to own the 360, which can't even play Blu-ray! As such, analysts are predicting that Wii owners will move up to the PS3 instead of the 360. Also, the PS3's built-in Blu-ray will certainly help with the casuals.
5. Noise. To some it doesn't matter. To others it does. The 360 is very noisy compared to the PS3. This makes it less likely for Microsoft to make the Blu-ray add-on for the 360. What happens during the silent part of the game or movie, and you hear this buzzing noise from the 360?
6. Lack of built-in hard disk drives for all consoles. This becomes an issue for games that can take advantage of disk-drives. I for one, would rather spend 20 minutes or so installing a game if it means significantly less loading times later on. Devil May Cry 4 is an example. Surely, more developers will take advantage of the disk drive more later on.
So, I ask: Does anyone still think the 360 is a better buy than the PS3? I think if you care about your friends or relatives, you should recommend the PS3 and not the 360, unless you friends only want to play exclusive games on the 360 AND can afford the LIVE fees AND don't mind dealing with reliability issues.
The choice between the 360 vs. the PS3 is similar to the choice between HD DVD and Blu-ray. The facts and reasons suggest that Blu-ray is a better buy. Now, it IS the better buy. HD DVD is dead.
You have to pay for online, but Xbox Live is loads more fun than the PS3's online.. Also, the upcoming 360's "Project Natal" looks much more fun the the PS3's Wands(Project Natal and PS3 wands are upcoming motion sensing accesesories, like the wii). PS3 does however have much more powerful hardware, giving it better graphics.
PS3's are also much more durable then a 360.
And many of the games are available for both consoles.
i own all the new consoles and i find that each one does something unique that no other company can offer and each one has a certain downfall to it
first of all xbox360 and ps3 and basicly the same one just costs a shitload more they both have the same IBM processors and just about the same graphics cards(ps3 having a slightly better one)
xbox360's main focus is gaming and offering the best online and best downloads with no fancy stuff added on(bluray) they have a system that is made to do 1 thing and that is play games, 360 may get the ring of death but microsoft supports their mistake and will repair them at no cost
PS3 has free online which isnt the best and they dont get all the download content like 360 does (ps3 has yet to get any map content for fallout 3 where 360 has 3 and one to be released very soon) but the main reason most people buy a ps3 is because they dont wanna waste $800-$1000 on a bluray player
I have both Ps3 gots gots graphics but works mostly on new tvs xbox 360 works any tv with fair graphics it has good games like halo 3 cracdown...etc ps3 has a couple theyre controllers lets see six axis has motion sensor but wow how often do you use that xbox controllers have a vibration and awesome triggers for 1st person shooters to sum up XBOX WINS HANDS DOWN
well ps3 because it is cheap and the gaming is more fun in it but if you want more of good graphics and racing and war games then buy xbox because it has a varities of these types of games and also 8players can play on it well forget the first line i have written yoy should buy xbox 360
i have both also. i play online alot, so my answer would be to get the 360. it has better online play in my opinion. my PS3 is mostly used for the blu-ray player.
i have both, and im a hardcore gamer...but i would have to say the PS3! :) i love the graphics and the fact that its free online, and you can play multiplayer...the trophies are a plus...its easier to keep track of than the 360...plus i like the game choices for PS3! :)

I myself prefer the 360.

And many of the games are available for both consoles.
So yeah..
I'd have to go for the 360.
But it's very much a personal preference..

I like PS3 as in my opinion the choice of games is better and the games are more entertaining.
ps3 - one payment, free online, 4-D Graphics and dont burn out when left on over night like the xbox 360
i have both also. i play online alot, so my answer would be to get the 360. it has better online play in my opinion. my PS3 is mostly used for the blu-ray player.
i have both, and im a hardcore gamer...but i would have to say the PS3! :) i love the graphics and the fact that its free online, and you can play multiplayer...the trophies are a plus...its easier to keep track of than the 360...plus i like the game choices for PS3! :)
