PS3 vs Xbox360

[Samus]

Ps3 may have better system specs, but the games are shit. Xbox has come out with many classic games that everyone likes.

 

[Multi Logic]

360 is the best!! im sure ps3 over heats wayy to quick, when i was in game i asked them to put ps3 on they said to me no because if its on for more then 2 hours it starts to over heat

dont give me that shit that it over heats i was playing resistance for like 2 hours and left it on for the night it was perfectly on .. the 360 is the one getting the "red ring of death" lol wtff?

 

[ImAFool]

360 is the best!! im sure ps3 over heats wayy to quick, when i was in game i asked them to put ps3 on they said to me no because if its on for more then 2 hours it starts to over heat

You, sir, are an idiot.

Take a look at these failure rates

30-40% of all 360's worldwide get the red ring of death (IE overheating)
Less than 1% of all PS3's worldwide overheat.

But guess what - MS gave the 360 3 YEARS FREAKING WARRANTY!!!21!1shift+1! Which by the way, you have to pay MORE for, and just shows that they can't fix their own system.

 

[whip k0 u]

xbox 360 ftw!!! it ownsss ps3 halo3 is da sickest game everr and soo is gears of wars i prefer 360 by far

 

[Tyson]

Better processor.
PS3 has shit online. Online is one of the best parts of videogames today, If I didn't play on live, I would barely play videogames, I mean they only last 10-20 hours normally.
Free demo's on both platforms, free music? Download it off your computer if you want it so badly.
Blu-Ray? Just a fancy word for better graphics, and at 599$, it fucking BETTER have good graphics.
1080p? Go ahead and cash out another couple thousand to get a nice TV so you can fully enjoy your crap system.
You get free system updates on both consoles...
The Elite has 120GB

Xbox = costs less, better online (one of the best parts of videogaming today), better games (and since there's more sales, that means the same will happen in the future), and it's just generally a nicer system.

The Xbox is just more fun. The PS3 is a "hardcore" system, that costs alot, that has slightly better graphics (i've played on a ps3 and a 360 and honestly, I saw a small difference).

I AM GETTING FUCKING PISSED OFF WHEN PEOPLE SAY PS3 HAS SHIT ONLINE WHEN THEY CAN'T EVEN BACK IT UP!

And would you sell your xbox360 just to get an elite since it has 120gb?

 

[Xtern]

xbox360!

 

[Tyson]

xbox360!

For what reason(s)?

THe red ring of death can be fixed SO easily. I fixed mine in 6 hours and it works like a charm now.

 

[Tyson]

Well PS3 doesn't even have that problem. I had mine downloading for a full day and then i started playing resistance, didn't overheat or anything.

 

[Muffinator]

The only bad thing about ps3 is the price compared to the Xbox360. It will soon go down.

Yeah, that and the GAMES.

PS3 isn't using its full potential because Sony is currently just trying to get games out as fast as possible to keep up with the increasing demand for more games. Once it settles down a bit we'll start to see some better games come out. Xbox360 has only just started to get good games now which has been.. how long since its release?

Xbox 360 was released on November 22, 2005. That's 1 year and 313 days ago at the time of posting.
Playstation 3 was released on November 11, 2006. That's 318 days ago at the time of posting, 354 days after the 360.

With nearly a year's head start, Xbox 360 had atleast 8 more good games than the PS3 released for it, and atleast 8 total. I'll be happy to mention what these 8 games I'm thinking of are if the accuracy if this number is put into question.

Within 678 days, there are 8 good Xbox 360 games, meaning one game every 85 days.
If the PS3 can match that ratio, then it is true that there are only more good 360 games because 360 was released earlier. So let's calculate...
Within 318 days, there are 0 good PS3 games, meaning one game every never.
Playstation 3 fails.

You, sir, have an accurate name.

The Red Ring of Death is mostly done with now.
40% of 360's bought before it was fixed get the Red Ring of Death. It's been fixed.

Furthermore, the 3-year warranty you get with your fixed console is not a sign that it hasn't really been fixed, it's Microsoft owning up to its mistakes. That's why you also get a 1-month Xbox Live subscription card.
Also, when you said that you have to pay more for said warranty, that was bullshit.
But hey, we all really know that Sony is better than Microsoft, that's why there's all that owning up that Sony doesn't do.

And would you sell your xbox360 just to get an elite since it has 120gb?

That's not the point. You see, you said

PS3 comes with a 60gb hard drive (xbox = 20gb).

Even though you can get an Xbox 360 Elite with a 120GB hard drive for $120 less than a PS3 with half as much memory. Then, if you don't need such a large hard drive, there are 20GB versions of each console, the 360 being $100 cheaper.

 

[Tyson]

Yeah, that and the GAMES.
Xbox 360 was released on November 22, 2005. That's 1 year and 313 days ago at the time of posting.

Playstation 3 fails.

You're a bloody biased retard, ofcourse you're going to say ps3 has no good games because you don't have one. I'll admit the xbox has good games if it did, Gears of War = great graphics, game play etc but lags online and don't say it doesn't because i've played it online. Halo = wow nothings really changed since the original, and its just as easy as the original too, if you can beat halo 1 you can beat halo 3 in about 5 hrs. The xbox360 isn't coming up with any new unique games.

 

[Muffinator]

You're a bloody biased retard, ofcourse you're going to say ps3 has no good games because you don't have one.

So because I didn't burn $2,600 on a PS3 and a new TV, I'm a biased retard.

Xbox 360, in 1 year and 314 days, has:
Halo 3
Bioshock
Geometry Wars
Alien Hominid
Pacman Championship Edition
Hexic
Hexic 2
Aegis Wing
Oh, thought of a ninth, we're down to 75 days per game: Crackdown

Playstation 3, in 319 days, has:
NOTHING

Refute, I dare you.

I'll admit the xbox has good games if it did, Gears of War = great graphics, game play etc but lags online and don't say it doesn't because i've played it online.

Obviously you're a biased retard because you have a different router than me.

Halo = wow nothings really changed since the original, and its just as easy as the original too, if you can beat halo 1 you can beat halo 3 in about 5 hrs.

Nothing's changed eh? I don't recall Halo 1 having
Gravity Hammers
Maulers
Plasma Swords
Fuel Rods
Dual-wielding
Flamethrowers
Better AI than Halo 1
Spider-Flood
Brute-Flood
Hairy Flood
Jackal snipers
Bruteshots
SMGs
Detachable turrets
Prowlers
Brute Choppers
Hornets
Banshees in multiplayer
Wraiths in multiplayer
Any of Halo 3's maps
Forge mode
Theater mode
4-player co-op
Elephants
Mongooses
Spikers
The Arbiter
Prophets
Brutes
Drones
Spiker grenades
Firebomb grenades
Bubble Shields
Deployable Cover
Grav Lifts
Power Drains
Regenerators
Flares
Trip Mines
Beam Rifles
Carbines
Battle Rifles
Gauss Warthogs
Spartan Lasers
Phantoms
Built in video/screenshot capturing
Skulls
Missile Pods
or Infection mode.

The xbox360 isn't coming up with any new unique games.

And neither is the PS3.

 

[arctic]

ps3 is probley better cuz the controler is easyer to use but 360 has halo 3 so i vote for 360 lol

but this is just my opinon

 

[Motzko]

PS3 My brother is going to get one when he comes back from iraq i cant wait its going to own...

 

[X Zero]

So because I didn't burn $2,600 on a PS3 and a new TV, I'm a biased retard. Obviously you're a biased retard because you have a different router than me.

Ak, u r being biased retard because ur just taking a one side and not exploring the other. U DON'T NEED TO FUCKING SPEND THAT MUCH maybe try, going to shops and testing it there or a friends house, wait maybe u have no friends . Hes not being a biased retard because he has at least tried to show both points of view.

 

[Muffinator]

Ak, u r being biased retard because ur just taking a one side and not exploring the other.

I've explored the other side to the maximum extend I can without wasting money, the other side seems to suck based on what I've seen.

U DON'T NEED TO FUCKING SPEND THAT MUCH

Maybe $2,600 was a bit of an overestimate. A PS3 and a 1080p TV only cost about $2,100 combined. But wait, PS3 has better graphics than Xbox 360, riiiiight?

maybe try, going to shops and testing it there or a friends house, wait maybe u have no friends .

None of my friends have PS3s; every time I've gone to a store that sells PS3s, there haven't been any that you can just play; and even if I found a store that let shoppers come and play a PS3 freely, it would probably not be using any of the best PS3 games, and be a moot point as such. Sorry, no can do.
Addressing your most valid point of all: Presuming for a sec that I didn't have any friends, what would that prove? PS3 doesn't magically change how many good games are on it based on how many friends I have.

Hes not being a biased retard because he has at least tried to show both points of view.

But he didn't like Gears of War cause of its online, and anyone who doesn't like Gears of War is obviously a biased retard. He also hasn't played every 360 game ever made, so he's obviously just a biased retard. And even if he did play every 360 ever, he would probably say a lot of them are bad, and we all know that the 360 is perfect in every way, so he's obviously a biased retard.
(Joking)

By what you just said, you really have no right to post anything except facts (processor speed etc.). Since you stated that you have NEVER played a PS3 and yet you can say that it has NO good games when you haven't played ANY games, WTF DUDE?

Resistance = Ownage, unique offline experience as well as an extremely fun online experience.

WarHawk = UNIQUE, there has never been a game that is ONLY multiplayer.

Motorstorm = Well i don't like many car racing games but i'd have to say this takes more skill than any other car racing games, you have to time your turbo because your car will blow up otherwise (don't say thats stupid, its only being realistic). You also have to use the terrain to your advantage, the game is created so you can win on any AVAILABLE vehicle on ANY map as long as you know what routes to take (its not so simple as just finding one route too since theres more than one specific routes and to get full effect i feel you must use my "cross over" effect). Also i wouldn't be laughing at my tactics when i have an above average win percentage online.

Dark Kingdom = Shit, i beat it in a day, bit like how Halo sucks too since everyone manages to beat that in a day as well.

Ninja Gaiden: Nothing out of the ordinary, i am biased to all ninja games as i don't like the way you operate them.

The Darkness: Their right about that, make it lighter, in order to fully embrace the darkness, it actually gives me a headache because i am straining to see.

Heavenly Sword: Again, not my type of game but suprisingly fun since you are usually needed to press buttons in semi cut scenes. For example at the start your character slides down these ropes which you have to tap X on then go right, left, left, X, Square.

That is all the PS3 games that i have played (we don't have that many in Australia).

And no, you don't have a better router than me, i don't use a router, i connect straight to the MODEM, makes it faster. You would notice it does not take two to "Tango" in Gears of War. If you have ever played it online you would notice you don't have to lag to be lagged against. If your speed is fine and theres isn't, well then your actually disadvantaged because you shoot them, that signals to the server that they are shot and dead, but slowly makes its way through their lame cable into but by then that cable has actually already submitted back bullets that shoots your guy. So your guy gets shot by a dead guy resulting in both dieing. Thats if you are lucky enough to see the guy since some people dissappear regarding on how severe their lag. I saw some guy dissappear infront of me and appear behind me thats how severely someone lagged.

Also, is EVERY game on xbox that is ONLINE compatible with a headset/microphone so you can talk to other players? Because the PS3 has that, no matter what game, you can still talk to people.

Again i enforce my opinion that you need to PLAY some PS3 games before you can say none of them are good, i have at least PLAYED SOME Xbox360 games. Also, yeah great, halo has a lot more bs stuff thats basicly the same just slightly different enough to make it into a new weapon so they can sell another game. I repeat again, if Halo was on PS3, there would be no Halo 3, it would still be Halo 1, just would have been given updates resulting in you probably paying an extra $20 (Australian) and it would have all the same features as Halo 3. Which is better than paying $200 (Australian) for the difference between Halo 1 to Halo 3.

 

[Tyson]

He also hasn't played every 360 game ever made, so he's obviously just a biased retard.

Also, have you played every xbox360 game ever made? No, i thought not. Does that mean you have no right to post? No, ofcourse not, you have every right to post your opinion on matters you know something about, if you like a game, you can say you like a game. If you have never played a game, you can't say its shit, you really have no right to saying anything at all about it, you may be able to comment on its technical problems but nothing else. In saying this, you have never played ANY PS3 games, therefore, you cannot comment on ANY PS3 game. Notice i have only commented on Xbox games i've actually played?

 

[hitmanchimp6]

I think both are good gaming stations, even if i dont own either one. HOWEVER, PS3 sucks cuz its WAAAAY too expensive. And xbox has halo 1, 2 ,and now 3!!!!!!

End of story.

 

[Muffinator]

Since you stated that you have NEVER played a PS3 and yet you can say that it has NO good games when you haven't played ANY games, WTF DUDE?

Just because I haven't played a game doesn't mean I can't say it's boring, frustrating, or any number of other things that could ruin it.
[Analogies]Just because I haven't been a soldier doesn't mean I can't say war is bad.
Just because a hockey puck has never hit my balls doesn't mean I can't say it would hurt.
Just because I haven't drunk diarrhea doesn't mean I can't say it would taste bad.

I better go out into a battlefield while smashing my balls and drinking diarrhea, because only then will I have the right to comment on any of it.[/Analogies]

Resistance: Fall of Man...
Meh.
Case in point: Is this better than Halo 3, or is it just here so that there can be an FPS for the PS3?
Warhawk...
Unique? That's all it is?
I wouldn't call cutting out a nice feature "unique".
Also, I'd like to ask you something: Have you ever played World of Warcraft, Guild Wars, Runescape, Maplestory, Graal, Monopoly, Go Fish, Uno, Settlers of Catan, Puzzle Pirates, CyberNations, Blackjack, Texas Hold 'em, 5 Card Draw, 7 Card Stud, Taki, Chess, 3D Chess, Tic Tac Toe, Checkers, National Trash, Scrabble, Upwords, Aggravation, 3D Tic Tac Toe, Backgammon, Twister, Fluxx, Boggle, Taboo, Magic: The Gathering, Cranium, Rummy, Gin Rummy, War, Dungeons and Dragons, GURPS, Charades, Final Fantasy XI, Everquest, Everquest 2, or Adventure Quest?
Motorstorm...
What does this add to generic racing that I can't get in another game that sucks less?
Dark Kingdom...
The box art tells me that I shouldn't expect this game to be all about quality. BUT, I'm not going to judge a game by its cover, so I'll give you that one.
That puts the PS3 up to one game, once every 320 days, but 320 is still more than 75.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma is a remake of an old Xbox game.
Even if The Darkness is good, it's on the 360 too.
Heavenly Sword is a mediocre God of War ripoff.

And no, you don't have a better router than me, i don't use a router, i connect straight to the MODEM, makes it faster.

I take it you didn't catch the sarcasm.
But, you just admitted that you don't use a router at all, let alone mine. You have no right to comment about anything related to the internet if you haven't tried out my router, and every other router in existence, and every possible combination of router+location+ISP.

is EVERY game on xbox that is ONLINE compatible with a headset/microphone so you can talk to other players?

Unless you can site one that isn't, I'd say yes.

Again i enforce my opinion that you need to PLAY some PS3 games before you can say none of them are good, i have at least PLAYED SOME Xbox360 games.

But you have not played ALL Xbox 360 games, so your own bullshit argument works against you.

Also, yeah great, halo has a lot more bs stuff thats basicly the same just slightly different enough to make it into a new weapon so they can sell another game.

What?? That 1. doesn't make any sense, and 2. is bullshit.

Also, have you played every xbox360 game ever made? No, i thought not. Does that mean you have no right to post? No, ofcourse not

I'm following you...

you have every right to post your opinion on matters you know something about, if you like a game, you can say you like a game.

Kind of like if I think the PS3 sucks, I can say I think the PS3 sucks.

If you have never played a game, you can't say its shit, you really have no right to saying anything at all about it, you may be able to comment on its technical problems but nothing else. In saying this, you have never played ANY PS3 games, therefore, you cannot comment on ANY PS3 game.

Saying something four times doesn't make it true.
