I dont buy ps3 bcoz I will not spend 8+ hours in front of tv

but i normally spend 24/7 in front computer

if not gaming, then can surf the web, watch movies etc2

Plus, pirated ps3 no online capablity so no replayability

there's not many ps3 online player

pc = bigger gaming network (malaysia that is)

PC is definitely a better choice due to its many many capabilities but having said that, some of the game are PS3 exclusive namely God of War 3 which really makes my pulse beat faster by only viewing its trailer. So, it really boils down to your specific need and type of game you like to play. Using console to play strategy game really annoyed me to the max BUT playing RPG or Action game using console is fun.

a good pc would cost more than a console especially when u are keeping up wit good games...
whereas each platform have its own exclusives: -
- ps3: mgs4, lbp, gt, killzone2, resistance series, god of war, r&c
- 360: halo, gears of war, fable
- wii: metroid, mario, zelda

Not trying to be funny here. Both are on different league. both caters for different players. Console is for gaming. Yes, Blue rays are expensive, but hey, they still can be sold out to other players after you'd gone bored playing. Yes a pc can play pirated games, but have you ever wonder, PC games title evolve everytime? They'll keep pace to the ever changing hardwares where else in console, they have to stick to the current hardware available. You will be spending more on hardware than gaming. After 1 year, basically your hardware will turn out obsolete and the next contender is the recommended requirement for the new games.

Honestly, I feel most people hammering ps3 doesn't have a slightest idea of it. If you walkthrough the console garage sale page, you would find there ain't much owners letting go of their ps3 set. Pretty much all the console owner is happy with it.

If currently you don't have a pc, then its wise to get one as you need to do your work or surf the web leisurely. If you wish to be a hardcore gaming player, i would highly recommend ps3. who says ps3 cannot be used as a pc? you can run linux in it.

at the end of the day, it depends on your taste of game. Personally I still prefer ps3 as its still serves a good purpose for gaming. Not to mention the high resolution support 1080p at a minimal hardware. effects, color are breathless. the only downside is working all the gaming under the gamepad.

Ps. Me no ps3 fanboy, me just voicing out what is right.

There is no such thing as a right or wrong in this case. Only your opinion. I;ve been a hardcore gamer as long as I remember, and I'm happy with my PC. I don't think PS3 sucks or is bad...I think it definetely is fun, but there is something about a PC game experience that I cant have on the console.

I do play console games too...But i think PC gaming right now is more for enthusiasts and consoles are the easier more approachable option.

I'm truly aware that there both pc & console are equally sparred. My post was create awareness to those whom just hammering the console without bringing out the facts.

Yes both system do provide a exciting gameplay in different ways. Much we know they will not cross the borderline of excitement. PC will definitely have more controls as opposed to the stagnant gamepad. If we look down in history, PC games with good titles will have a long run as compared to console. After all, we can roughly say, all the people here will have at least a computer, but not many would own a console.

This is my fair share of opinion as I too once was a hardcore gamer since 386 & atari era till today. This is just another debate like Mac Vs PC

That is just something you need to phase out from. This is the internetz...what is the internetz good for other than repeated bashing of something without facts? You have to ignore the bad and give credit to the good.

Learn from Dennis Dyack...Don't try to take on the internetz. There is no logic in forum banter that borders on bashing or rants. Sometimes I think it is a new sub culture.

I'm not going to be able to play it since I don't have a PS3. I only have PS2 and after playing the first two in the series
I can't believe I'm not going to be able to continue Kratos's story sad.gif

It's made me seriously consider saving for one.

I think the PC vs PS3 debate is entirely up to the user. It depends on your preference. For instance I'm a PC freak.
I cannot do without my PC. As for playing on TV, I don't like TV whether its just watching or sitting playing for hours.
As for PC I can play for a while, then as I rest I can surf, chat, watch something or doing something with Photoshop.
PC is definitely the way to go for those that want a wide range of applications.

But then again there are those that are not into PCs. For example some of my housemates can spend the whole day
playing the PS2. They hardly use their PCs.

The downside of having a PC rather than a PS3 is that some games are not available on PC and even those that are available
can be very demanding in terms of PC hardware hence the need for a somewhat deep pocket. For instance in the last 6 months
I've bought a new GPU, PSU (Power Supply Unit), Monitor and had my PC fixed several times. All because I wanted to play a
few high end games. Is it worth it ? I don't know. Some enjoy toying with their PCs. That is tweaking its parts, overclocking and
e.t.c Where as others don't want anything to do with the technicalities that come with playing games on PC.

Despite all that, PC still wins it for me. Though I'd love to have a PS3 because its simple and user friendly. I'm a playstation guy
and because of that I can only play games on PC where a controller is enabled. If I can't enable the controller I wont play it.

My suggestion is get both if you are not into all that PC tech stuff. If you are then forget the PS3.

for pc, u always need to upgrade...
jz look at crysis and farcry 2...
wut else can they throw at us next year...
heck i even had trouble supporting RA3...
not to forget gta4's poor optimization on the pc...

on the other hand, the ps3 itself is really powerful...
playing farcry2 on it looks better than it is on the pc...
besides, u get to play MGS4, gamespot's game of the year besides so many other awards it has won...
