X-box360 or PS3?????????

Question

Im going to buy one, and i want to know which is better!

And could you tell me how much they cost?

Answer 1

Before I start explaining on which system you should get, I want to let you know that I have both systems. Its better to talk to a person who had experience with both systems…

Here we go, based on my experience, I recommend you the PS3

Why? Well here’s why…

- Sony had 2 successful consoles that sold over 200 million combined, so they have the best experience with gaming consoles

- To these people who say that Xbox 360 has better games, that’s no longer true… Since 2007 PS3 had  AAA titles that were released. Heavenly Sword, Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, Metal Gear Solid 4, etc.

- Xbox 360 was released in 2005, and its potential has been maxed out in 2006, a year later from launch, with Gears of War- here is what GeOW looks like (http://guides.gamepressure.com/gearsofwa... no games will look better than this game. This picture shows how maxed out xbox  360- (http://i27.tinypic.com/vgiepu.png) - note: Gears 1 came out in 2006 and Gears 2 is coming out November 2008 and yet both games look virtually identical

- PS3 was released in 2006, and its potential is nowhere near its full potential. Look at Metal Gear Solid 4-

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3174/2368... looks so much more realistic than GeOW right? This game surely pushed the PS3 potential higher but not completely meaning new games will look better than MGS4!!!

- PS3 supports FULL 1080p resolution. Xbox 360 can’t display 1080p but it can upscale to 1080p but you can see a big difference between true 1080p(PS3) and upscaled 1080p(xbox 360) Also another thing, PS3 supports HDMI 1.3 which has richer colors and better quality while xbox 360 supports HDMI 1.2 which is outdated HDMI…

- With PS3, you are not getting just a gaming console, you are also getting a Blu-Ray drive. Blu-ray is the next-gen DVD. Xbox had a HD-DVD drive add-on for $200 but now HD-DVD is dead because people chose Blu-Ray as their Hi-Def format.

- PS3 games are produced on Blu-ray Disc. There are different capacities for Blu-ray- 25gb and 50gb. However they are coming out with 100gb discs and it will be fully compatible with PS3’s Blu-Ray drive. With the huge storage, developers can add more content, better graphics, and make a longer game. Xbox 360 uses DVD-9 which only holds 9gb. Developers are starting to complain that DVD is not big enough for games.

- Both systems offer online game however you have to pay $50 to subscribe for Xbox Live while Playstation Network offers the same exact features for free. XBL uses P2P- here is how P2P works(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co... so if someone has a bad connection, then the whole game will be laggy.  Basically you are paying $50 for your own bandwidth.  PSN has dedicated servers(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co... so if one has a bad connection, it will not affect the game at all. Again PSN is free.

- Xbox 360 has a reported 33% chance of breaking down… PS3 reported to have .01% chance of breaking down. This might have an impact on your decision…

xbox 360 pricing to match ps3's features:

$349/$449- console

$50- XBL subscription(only for 1 YEAR) pay $50 every year

$100- wi-fi adaptor

$200- HD-DVD drive add-on

$20- rechargeable battery kit

all comes out to $720/$820- add $50 each year you subscribe for XBL

ps3 features:

$399/$499- console

spiderman 3 blu-ray movie/MGS4

online- free

rechargeable battery- built in the controller

wi-fi built in

blu-ray player(better than HD-DVD) built in

all comes out to $399/$499, oh my,look at that, its the same price as before

If you look at this, every person who says xbox 360 is the way to go, they never have support for their answer like some other people do with PS3. That’s simply because there are no benefits to have a xbox 360

I think this is enough for you to know but if you want to know then feel free to email me at [e-mail] for more reasons

for more reasons

Answer 2

i don't know how much the cost, but i think you better buy ps3, cause i have xbox 360 and the games are nothing more than copying ps3 games (they're suck!), maybe the xbox 360 had price cheaper than ps3, but i suggest you to buy ps3, cause the games are fantastic (i only have try dragon ball: burst limit and hellboy: science of evil, but those two are great)

Answer 3

ps3 hands down.

Answer 4

The Xbox 360 is $350. A PS3 $400.

The PS3 has no good games? Incorrect.

You will need:

COD5 (Nov)

Resistance 2 (Nov)

Metal Gear Solid 4

Online:Free

Then you are good to go! But if you want some other awesome games you will need Bioshock, Killzone 2, Tekken 6, Super Stardust HD, Uncharted, etc...

Trust me, if you go with the right games, you will NOT regret it.

And I plan on playing my PS3 for another 6-7 years.

Answer 5

well, i have a 360 it cost about 400 bucks, and i would totally recommened it over the ps3, i've nothing but bad **** about the ps3

Answer 6

PS3 better bang for the buck.

Answer 7

Congratulations! You are the 1 millionth person to ask this question!

Seriously, just get a PS3.  You won't regret it.

Answer 8

It your choice but xbox vs ps3 well i got all the info you need

now the reason why xbox will always outsell the ps3 is because of live and halo 3.

the xbox a good cheap console that has great game and graphics but has much hardware failures but the ps3 is also good both systems can do 1080p of hd and the ps3 has blu-ray built in so it's a cheap blu-ray player and good for furtue games because beacue is can hold about 30-and up on storage.

But im buying a ps3 for the sole purse of using it as a pc.  

Answer 9

I say playstation 3.

because ps3 have a 3%failure chance

and xbox 30%

but yes playstation 3

playstation 3=$400.00

Answer 10

Ps3 is 80GB is $500 and the Ps3 40GB is $400.

Look you can get the $400 but guess what you can upgrade the hard drive 360 you can't upgrade the hard drive.

The 80GB you can play ps2 games.You can have up to 100 friends on PlayStation Network.

There are also some very cool PlayStation exclusives like Resistance Fall Of Man,MotorStorm,Little Big Planet,Killzone 2,Ratchet And Klank.

And many more out and coming soon.

So I would suggest getting the ps3.

Jah I got one 2 and I love it

Answer 11

I say the PS3 i have owned both systems and my 360 died on me which was when i got my ps3. The ps3 is alot more reliable in hardware and the software is also good and is only just beggining to get better.

for a 400 dollar system you will get a 40GB PS3 which has

Built-IN Wifi ( connects wirelessly to the internet)..........................  80-120 bucks for the xbox 360

The discs dont scratch as easily as the xbox 360 because Bluray has extra layer of protection on the discs. you can TOUCH the disc and feel the difference................................. The xbox 360 uses old DVD drives which the game discs actually get scratched when you just play them at times.

Free ONLINE service......... 50-60 bucks for 1 year on an xbox 360...

Upgradable hardrive.... This isnt no bad thing. sony actually allows you to buy 2'5 SATA hardrives to us in your PS3... you can use internal or external hardrives (external can be even up to 1TB which is 1000GB) so which system is actually CHEAPER? you do the math. if you cant then i will right now

40GB PS3     400 bucks

Xbox 360       300 bucks

                  +  50 bucks for 1 year online service

                  +  90 bucks (approx) for a wifi adapter to connect wirelessly   = 440 bucks...

you dont even want me to compare the 80GB to the 360 because it simply kills the 360
