Well, first thing is you're asking in the wrong section.

I was considering either one when I had a chat with a friend of mine.
In the end I decided on the PS3. I liked the games that was only exclusive to the PS3, which I know I will regret if I bought the Xbox 360 instead.

The other thing was that I like to play online, the Playstation Network being free was the thing that tipped the balance for me.

Though I understand that the Xbox 360 have cheaper games and I guess you know why but then I kinda miss the old days, where I had my Sega Megadrive and games on cartridges was as expensive as the PS3 games now. I still remember how much time I spend on a particular game and the memorable moments on it after mastering the game unlike when I got the PS and PS2, where there is too many games, and I only spend a short amount of time on each one of it. Most of it I didn't even play it at all.

Anyway, that's the reason I prefer the PS3. But then if you can afford it, I would still say getting both would be the best choice as some games are better on Xbox 360 like Bayonetta for example.

Yea. Kinda understand his dilemma of having 2 younger brothers.

I have 2 younger bro and sis, though not directly blood related.
They only come over during the long school holiday.
That's why lucky I still have the PS2.

They get bored easily with the PS3 as I only have a few games on it and the games are probably too complicated for them to play. They don't like playing online either since they keep getting pwned on COD MW2, MGS Online and Uncharted 2.

So usually bro would play dota on my pc (he can be my mentor by now) and sis would keep switching games on the PS2, while I have the PS3 all to myself.

Haha.

I understand ramz. He is like me. We're the type that prefer to play online with players and there is already no turning back as we're already hooked to it. I might be even worst since I play World of Warcraft. So I love the interaction with other players even more.

As for your case, how long to go until your student life is over?
If there is like 2-3 years to go. I think it is quite feasible to get a xbox 360 already.
You have a lot of time to play as a student so you would love to have more games to play with your bros.

But beware, don't play until your grades fluctuate ok?

You better check on xbox 360 problems that you can encounter.
Probably do some reading on the xbox 360 section.
The Red Ring of Death is rather scary and unlike a PS3, you can't send it back to the manufacturer to fix.
