Well, my birthday is coming up and i can get one of these two systems biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

My friends are split. some like ps3 and some like xbox360. recently though the ones who liked ps3 have been complaining about there being no good games for it and having to wait until sony releases good games for it to be more than like a glorified blu-ray player. Also, a number of them have had their ps3 even stop working! At the same time, my 360 loving friends have had nothing but good things to say about their console and think games like mass effect and halo 3 are the best games of the year.

I need to decide soon or my parents will like decide for me cry.gif i was leaning torwards ps3 but the bad reviews it has been getting combined with my friends' poor experiences are pushing me to xbox360. i can't believe i'm actually thinking about getting a xbox360 as i've always been a sony fangirl blush.gif

should i just see if i can get them to wait? I <3 sony and think the lineup they have in the future looks pretty nice, i just don't want get a ps3 and have nothing to do with it icon_question.gif

No games for the PS3? What more do they want?

Just the list of games that will keep you busy at least until the newer titles are released later this month.

1. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
2. Assassin's Creed
3. Call of Duty 4
4. Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction
5. Heavenly Sword
6. Resistance Fall of Man
7. Unreal Tournament 3

Later this month:
1. Devil May Cry 4
2. Burnout Paradise
3. Dark Sector

The lack of games is no longer a valid argument in my opinion. So, its up to you. The fact that PS3 is a great bluray player is an added bonus. Glorified bluray player? It is the cheapest bluray player so it is by no means glorified.

There are more failed 360s than PS3s. The PS3 may have suffered a bad launch but it has picked itself up adequately over the past few months.

i'd say ps3 too. it's the cheapest blu-ray player in the market you can get + like above said, more games are coming up this year in fact... but in the end, make ur decision based on what type of games you like to play on your console and what other stuffs you wanna do with the console, eg movies, songs, etc. etc.

The story for Halo remains one of the best written story for a game yet. Its a normal FPS but the storyline is quite the great.

Oh and the funky features like screenshots, videos and all makes for a great multiplayer experience in Halo3. The community made Halo a great game.

personally i feel xbox360 is a superb machine. have tons of games and can play backup games but the bad part about it the machine have manufacturing defects as standard. if you buy older models meaning not falcon ones. you face the ring of death meaning the system will not boot up due to overheating or something like that so thats why i have discarded the machine very cheap before i get that ring of death. on the other hand ps3 so far never heard of any manufacturing defects yet maybe simply because not many owners out there but the price have dropped a lot which may push to more onwers to buy it. personally i am planning to buy a ps3 pretty soon just to test out graphics but from what i have heard. xbox360 have better graphics output as compared to ps3 on real display. yes i agree the specs on ps3 is far more superior than xbox360 but apparently xbox360 looks more sweeter.

LittleBigPlanet

I nvr like xbox's games
It's really depends on what games u play most.
there's a time i choose between ps3 n xbox, but end up sold my ps3 to my fren n got myself a Wii. All my friends came over my house so far, none of them complain about Wii. N all of them love it...
Even my mom hasnt touch a console for her entire life till now and she gave a try on Wii which really make her happy n fun playing it.
If u really like 1st shooting game like Halo 3 then go for xbox 360. only title I remember is good for xbox exlusive.
main reason for me to get ps3 is GT series, metal gear solid series and final fantasy series.

Meh, get the console with the games you want. Easy as pie.

The 360 is great because of our local community and the online integration. It sucks that you have to pay for it, but I love it.

The PS3 is starting to have good games for it, some of which are multiplatform so think hard of what you plan to play on it. For me, I don't view the PS3 so much of a game machine as a cheap HD machine.

If don't want, then a modded xbox360 can play RM 5 games

Don't buy PS3, here the reasons:
1)PS3 got NO huge power brick.....
2)PS3 got NO pirated games....
3)PS3 ONLY can play PS3 games and Blu-ray movies (not x360 games and not HDDVD movies)....
4)PS3 NOT charging you $$$ to play online....
5)PS3 really suxx0r!!!

SO, DON'T BUY PS3!!!

I had your same dilemma last year when I was deciding between the two. Ultimately I chose the PS3 because it's an investment with long term returns because it's supposed to be a 10 year cycle console, whereas the Xbox 360 is a 5 year console that as of now (it's third year) is already showing it's limitations with multi platform games like DMC4, COD4 and Burnout Paradise presenting inferior graphics and framerate compared to the PS3.

Also, you have to look at the games you want to play. Seeing that you mentioned being a Sony fangirl, I can assure you that first party PS2 favourites like God of War, Ratchet and Clank, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus will not continue their lineage on any other console.

Furthermore, games like Metal Gear Solid 4 will unlikely find their way to the 360 due to it's hardware limitations and it's insufficient media storage.

Games like Final Fantasy XIII will equally be unlikely on the 360 because they require very high processing capabilities. Square Enix is working to put at least 4 of the 6 Cell SPE's into use to produce intense gameplay with Advent Children quality graphics. This is simply impossible on the 360.

Last but not least, with the advent of Bluray as the clear winner of the HD format wars, it would not be unwise to invest the cheapest yet most functional Bluray player on the market at the moment.

ps: 360's failure rate is another thing to consider.

Hhmm... Tough one indeed... JK! Got a PS3 without even the need to think twice... Time will tell, coz the RROD will just suddenly appear when u least expect it... Anyway, as others have mentioned, the PS3 line-up is not bad ATM, and is just gonna get better... Games like Uncharted, Resistance, COD4, Ratchet & Clank, etc. will keep u busy till the newer games are out...

On top of that, u get BLU-RAY! YIPPEE! While 360 owners get normal DVD, or an external HD-DVD drive, which by now, u mite know that HD-DVD is almost dead... I give it abt 1 or 2 months to live (only Paramount and Universal left)... ALSO!!!!!!! For blu-ray movies, USA and Asia are in the same region!!! that way, if u cant find a movie here, get it from AMAZON.com... easy peasy... i can go on and on and on... but u get the picture... wifi, memory slot (for some), sixaxis + RUMBLE IS BACK!! Its all goooood...

I was at my regular game shop in Funan IT Mall in Singapore 2 weeks ago and I was chatting with the owner. He told me that the Microsoft Xbox console exchange was in the same mall. This is where customers bring their RROD consoles in to change for a new console. He said that on some days, the queue can stretch up to 100 persons.

And he said that when you bring your 360 in, you get a refurbished one in place of your set. MS doesn't even bother cleaning up the refurbished sets so you could be getting a dirty, dusty one. He had a customer who had a 10 day old set which RRODed. When he exchanged his set, he received a 10 month old set.

I asked him about 360 sales because at one point it was the top selling console in Sg and he replied that those days were over. 360 sales in Sg are slowing down. Everyone's switching to PS3 because of the way MS treats its customers.

I was at my regular game shop in Funan IT Mall in Singapore 2 weeks ago and I was chatting with the owner. He told me that the Microsoft Xbox console exchange was in the same mall. This is where customers bring their RROD consoles in to change for a new console. He said that on some days, the queue can stretch up to 100 persons.

And he said that when you bring your 360 in, you get a refurbished one in place of your set. MS doesn't even bother cleaning up the refurbished sets so you could be getting a dirty, dusty one. He had a customer who had a 10 day old set which RRODed. When he exchanged his set, he received a 10 month old set.

I asked him about 360 sales because at one point it was the top selling console in Sg and he replied that those days were over. 360 sales in Sg are slowing down. Everyone's switching to PS3 because of the way MS treats its customers.

walaweii 100 people.... 1 day. damn many weii.... 100 x 30 day.... 3000 thousand per month.. but still got people buy, donno why la... doh.gif.....

erm. funny i should read this post.

I had lunch with my SG counterpart just now. Since I have few people PMing me about helping them claim their warranty for their 360, he said the same thing about the queue. A friend of his even got a refurbished unit with bread crumbs inside the system, how it got there, dont ask me. Then I said to him that 360 is very very popular there and in JB, he declined and said a lot of singaporeans are switching sides now. Most of them have PSP for on the go gaming and the connection feature between PSP and PS3 just adds the fire. JB its different, its because of the piracy issue.

I definitely agreed. Coz both consoles have exclusive titles!!! Pls dont whinning about which console to choose. For those who unable to afford 2 consoles at the same time, I would suggest that the Xbox360 for the time being...!!

If you dont mind the potential hardware problem with xbox360, go for it.....

If you dont mind waiting for better exclusive titles coming this year, buy ps3.

If you dont mind about your financial status at all, buy both tongue.gif

I had your same dilemma last year when I was deciding between the two. Ultimately I chose the PS3 because it's an investment with long term returns because it's supposed to be a 10 year cycle console, whereas the Xbox 360 is a 5 year console that as of now (it's third year) is already showing it's limitations with multi platform games like DMC4, COD4 and Burnout Paradise presenting inferior graphics and framerate compared to the PS3.

Also, you have to look at the games you want to play. Seeing that you mentioned being a Sony fangirl, I can assure you that first party PS2 favourites like God of War, Ratchet and Clank, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus will not continue their lineage on any other console.

Furthermore, games like Metal Gear Solid 4 will unlikely find their way to the 360 due to it's hardware limitations and it's insufficient media storage.


Games like Final Fantasy XIII will equally be unlikely on the 360 because they require very high processing capabilities. Square Enix is working to put at least 4 of the 6 Cell SPE's into use to produce intense gameplay with Advent Children quality graphics. This is simply impossible on the 360.

Last but not least, with the advent of Bluray as the clear winner of the HD format wars, it would not be unwise to invest the cheapest yet most functional Bluray player on the market at the moment.

ps: 360's failure rate is another thing to consider.

Ok... all the highlights are making me want to laugh all the time. Look like PS3 is really good investment until my another younger son born to join up my eldest child, then i can play myself a PS4 without disturb. laugh.gif laugh.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif
I m hope that MGS4 and FFXiii can really make it on 2008, then we can discuss why FFXIII need at least 4 cell processing to run the game. brows.gif brows.gif

Anyway, for safety, get ps3, if u really want to get xbox360, better get the falcon chip xbox360. So i m not giving direction to choice which console u have to grab, but it depend on the game from the console which u like most, please do more homework for searching which game u like will available for both console. My 2 cent is for all the bro n sis which still confuse to decide between PS3, Xbox360 and WII. Asking opinion here only can make u more confuse from the fansboy.

If you want to use a PS3, the best would be for you to get A FULL HD flat screen televisyen.

I played the PS3 on a normal LCD televisyen which supports HD only..and the graphics ain't that nice with Need for speed pro street.

I'll throw some oil into the fire here. the 360 has Mass Effect, which is simply one of the best RPGs of all time, up there with KOTOR, Baldur's Gate even and has two sequels due.

FF ?? I prefer PS or PC's FF7, the graphic is not pretty as the new generation console RPG game, but the story, sound track and the character win all the RPG game. I dunno why i m not boring to repeat n repeat playing this game every years. So maybe only the remake FF7 or similar game like FF7 will attract to bought the console.

Potential? thats not all depend on the better hardware, not from the console, is all from the game developer. Example like Super Mario Galaxy, this game really no need better hardware, Nintendo really dun need it.

aiya.. sony is like dat larr
they like to push da limit
PS was success bcoz it use CD format
then PS2 bcoz of emotion engine processor and dvd format
now PS3 is betting on blu-ray and Cell processor
all the hardware for each generation of PS are revolutionary
all new stuff in it..
ppl are actually buying ps3s to build super computers
imagine itz capabilities
itz jux a matter of time for developers to harness its power
it took 5 years to reach 90% of PS2 power.. i m sure it will be about the same or even longer in PS3
as the cell is completely revolutionary
this technology will appear in many items in the future and it starts with the ps3

My post was referring to potential of the hardware, not the potential of the games.

And yes, hardware is equally intricate when developing a game, which was what the whole "Wii is a piece of shit" debacle was about last year.

You're the first person I've ever come across to be daft enough to claim that the 360 has better hardware potential than the PS3.

we 'll see in the coming few years then PS3 will show its potential

but for now, esp multiplatform games, u won't see PS3 version is any better than X360, what PS3 can display, so do Xbox
PS3 does have powerful cell cpu, but its drawback lies in its outdated G70, furthermore, Cell BE still remains relatively fresh piece of hardware which requires few years to go along in the programming. I 'm not saying about the exclusive titles, but on multiplatform like those published by EA.

And I don't think Xbox360 is getting any weaker in hardware, minus the RROD. Although it yield lesser FLOPS but that only makes it perform less in supercomputing apps.

in the coming years, PS3 will draw in many HD movie enthusiasts as it offers cheaper BD solution with upgradeable functionalities. That's what makes PS3 being good.

Although I would very much prefer a PlayStation 3, but what should be given credit to xbox360, I ll give. There will never be downright inferiority when one compares towards another, saying Xbox/Wii piece of crap only belongs to Sony fanboy.

I beg to differ:
http://www.gamesradar.com/us/ps3/game/news...042715365068067

Infinity Ward themselves admitted that the PS3 version has superior graphics.

And no one here is calling any console a piece of crap, if that is what you're insinuating.

its true
the rsx can give similar output compared to the xbox ati card
it also produces 1.3 teraflop
the only teraflop thingy out there for the consumer market
when programmed correctly together with the cell, it can match and even be superior to the xbox graphics card
this has not been able to shown until only recently where developers are starting to learn more abt the cell
it is shown in games where developers actually spend more time in the ps3 development or develop both the ps3 and xbox version separately
producers often port the xbox version to the ps3.. thus a reduction in graphics and etc..
but things are starting to change.. and games like burnout paradise city is being developed in the ps3 and ported to the xbox
xbox has done well.. and the smart move is to push forward their release date 1 year earlier gaining a massive advantage and releasing many big titles the following year.. but this strategy back-fired by a huge flaw in its design causing hardware failure

so.. when games are programmed properly.. it will run exactly in the same as in the xbox version.. but the ps3 can do more than that.. n this will only be seen in 1st party games...
a better processor also means more things can happen at the same time on screen with decent frame rate
now developers are strugling to assign things to the SPU and fill up the blu-ray as they jux cant think of anything else to do with so much power
like in unchartered
they are able to put so much documentary and movies and etc etc into the blu-ray jux bcoz they have so much space and jux cant fill them up

Ok... fanboy are still the fanboy, so r u mean that better hardware is more important than game developer, for me, without a good game developer, a 6 core or even 100 of core is still a "piece of shit". How is the feeling someone said ur console are "piece of shit". Please do some respect for ppl own those console, calling ppl are dude then u will the dude too.
Not talking about games, so what is the purpose of having a console?? doh.gif I will not feeling proud that own a super power console which cant do more more better game compare to other console. Hope the fanboy no feeling hard about this, i m just telling the fact. Hope PS3 not following the step of PS2, only show their best potential when their next generation console are coming out.

Tetsuya Nomura noted that the design for Lightning is based off a female prototype of Cloud, which is why they have similar facial features. However the recent scans in Shonen Jump has shown that slight alterations have been made to make her appear more original.

I had your same dilemma last year when I was deciding between the two. 1.Ultimately I chose the PS3 because it's an investment with long term returns because it's supposed to be a 10 year cycle console, 2.whereas the Xbox 360 is a 5 year console that as of now (it's third year) is already showing it's limitations with multi platform games like DMC4, COD4 and Burnout Paradise presenting inferior graphics and framerate compared to the PS3.

Also, you have to look at the games you want to play. Seeing that you mentioned being a Sony fangirl, I can assure you that first party PS2 favourites like God of War, Ratchet and Clank, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus will not continue their lineage on any other console.
3.
Furthermore, games like Metal Gear Solid 4 will unlikely find their way to the 360 due to it's hardware limitations and it's insufficient media storage.


4.Games like Final Fantasy XIII will equally be unlikely on the 360 because they require very high processing capabilities. Square Enix is working to put at least 4 of the 6 Cell SPE's into use to produce intense gameplay with Advent Children quality graphics. This is simply impossible on the 360.

Last but not least, with the advent of Bluray as the clear winner of the HD format wars, it would not be unwise to invest the cheapest yet most functional Bluray player on the market at the moment.

ps: 360's failure rate is another thing to consider.
Ya... after i read this few highlight word, me laugh until want to use my head to hit the wall.
1. R u the only one investment a console to play it for 10 years long?? Who will join u???
2. Waoo... u just like the GOD, u decide the Xbox360 to be a 5 years console, where is the proof, where is the comparison between PS3 vs Xbox360 with game title like DMC4, COD4 and Burnout Paradise, where u get it, r u the god??
3. This one more funny, why Dead of Rising not finding their way for the PS3, bcoz hardware limitations of PS3??
4. We can see that FF7 only for PS(after few years it already release on pc version), FFX~FFX-2 also only for PS2.... so it is Sega Saturn really cant hadle the game which same generation with PS, Sega DreamCast and GameCube cant handle the game which same generation with PS2??? We can see that, it still happen to another FF series, so everyone sure know what i mean. Thats no impossible for Xbox360.

U r really not a smart fanboy, at least show the source and proof, thats ok for me if u like continue to talk like a god. Sry, ok.. i know the fact is not work for u.

No i"m a PC games fan first and foremost. I loved my PS2 but the PS3 somehow just doesnt quite cut it for me. Plus, I hate it that Sony has the F1 games licence all to themselves and continue to make crap racers (I like my F1 games in the hardcore Crammond way). And I don't like the fact of Sony winning any format war as they have a horrible history of forcing down weird DRMs onto users. tongue.gif

1, Is marketing tactic lah, little bro. doh.gif Back to the fact, there will no 10 years console in this world, it will never happen, any kind of new technology will never stand for that long for their consumer, but u still can play ur current console at least 10 years if ur PS3 still can accompany with u at that time. Anyway the link u give just proof that u still innocent. For other links proof that u really a hardcore ps3 fansboy, thats no convince source inside, like someone said:" You are over-exaggerating on PS3 hardware".
Anyway i think i have to stop argue about this, bcoz another fansboy trying using sniper to aim me and said nothing which have no any connection with this argument. Sorry for my poor English.

For other links proof that u really a hardcore ps3 fansboy, thats no convince source inside, like someone said:" You are over-exaggerating on PS3 hardware".

No convincing source?

Tycho Brahe is a person who plays games for a living. His opinion at any time is worth much more than anyone in this entire forum.
1up editors are editors of one of the most popular gaming websites on the internet.
Infinity Ward is the DEVELOPER of COD4. They made the freaking game.

How much more credibility do you need? For God's sake if you can't disprove anything, don't even try to.

Don't patronize me. I have given you pointed facts. When you asked for sources, I provided them. When you called me names, I ignored them. I can proudly say that I am on the safe side of the maturity scale in this conversation.

Sorry, Tycho Brahe, i m really dunno about him(He is not the one who make in history, right??), thats too many ppl who plays games for a living, including me, i need to see the comparison, not the word.
Popular gaming websites on the internet? Thats too many popular gaming website on the internet, are they all gonna giving the same source too, or only 1UP?
Whatever Infinity Ward said, i have post up the link about the COD4 comparison between PS3 and Xbox360, do u see the different??
Do u like to answer only 1 question, u really can play a console for last long until 10 years, since like u r looking for the powerful machine? Is this already proof that u r over-exaggerating?

Alright, so I'm suppose to trust the video posted by someone online, but not the developers who made the game?

To answer your question: Yes, I can play a console for as long as 10 years, perhaps longer. Sony only ended PSone production in 2006, more than 11 years past it's launch. I still play PSone games to this day.

Now, I have a question for you: Instead of trying really, really hard to contradict everything I say, why not bring something other than poorly constructed queries to this discussion?

You got nothing.
Again, please go back and try to read what I was talking about when I mentioned the hardware. Use all those links I gave you, it's not that hard if you put some effort into it.

See? You're still trying to contradict everything I say. Just admit that you misunderstood my posts, and get it over with. No one will blame you for making a mistake.

Then, bring something other than naysaying to the conversation. Only then can we have a decent debate.

actually, both of you should step back and read the previous posts. there was some slight misunderstandings, and somehow things got heated/escalated, then the posts became more personal. cool down bros, here to make friends and not enemies.

even if 1 person is superduper 360 supporter and another is superduper ps3 supporter, doesn't mean we kenot be friends. haha, maybe the 2 person can even visit each other and try out the ps360! icon_rolleyes.gif

ps3 and the 360 is very similar in many aspects and yet very complimentary. the spirit of competition keeps both platforms strong. the important part is to enjoy the games.

haha, the TS is very likely a fake/clone account tongue.gif

debate/discuss pros/cons is good. just don't let slight misunderstandings escalate to full-out flamewars laugh.gif

if u take pirated games out of the equation, u wont be disappointed with getting either 360/ps3 at this moment. 80% of the 360/ps3 experience is basically the same. this is a good thing for gamers, since i really feel both platforms are competing neck-to-neck and the overall quality of games are kept high.

It shames me to say this, but piracy was actually the only reason I considered getting the 360 initially. But the jump to purely original purchases has taught me to appreciate games more biggrin.gif

Asian 360 games are slightly cheaper than Asian PS3 games, but u calculate the monthly GOLD subscription, it kind of even out. that's why if u really really HAVE to choose 1, quite pening also. best is to make more friends with other gamers, then can also check out the other console when visiting friends smile.gif

I've played the 360 long before I've even touched a PS3, and I've got nothing against it other than the potential risk.

Not getting Burnout. They took out split screen multiplayer from this version, so I don't think it's worth my money. Maybe when the price goes under RM 100.

Should I ask for a PS3 / Xbox 360 ?

3 things to consider...

1. What games you want to play (Gears of War or Final Fantasy)
2. Can you survive paying monthly for XBL ?
3. Do you want Blu-Ray or HD DVD sad.gif. If Blu-Ray, you're good to go. If HD DVD, it will be an add-on.
