Hey man, honestly? Halo and Gears of War are 360's 2 biggest exclusive games, so if you're not into them then in my opinion u really have no reason to get a 360. Even if you DID like those 2 games I'd still say PS3, though. Bluray aside (even though the picture and quality is amazing), PS3 has the most and best exclusive games. Basically every one of the 17 games I own for my PS3 is a PS3 exclusive. Here's a list of a few of their exclusives:
1. Metal Gear Solid 4 (One of the two best games I've ever played...neck and neck with Uncharted 2)
2. Uncharted 2 (and Uncharted 1 for that matter...)
3. inFAMOUS (excellent game, excellent story and characters, awesome action and powers)
4. LittleBigPlanet (absolutely ingenious in every way and a BLAST to play with 3 of your friends)
5. Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction (and "A Crack in Time" releasing in a few days) - may look like a kid's game, but I had a heck of a lot of fun playing it. I'm 23 years old btw..
6. Killzone 2 (although u said fps isn't ur fav game type.....KZ2 has unparalleled fps graphics and excellent multiplayer as well as campaign)
7. Resistance 1 and 2 (Resistance 2 has best online I've ever played with their co-op mode + a lot of epic moments in their campaign...Resistance 1 has awesome campaign)
8. MLB '08, '09, etc. "The Show"
9. Motorstorm 1 is a real intense offroad racing game, limited gameplay options though.

Oh, and PS3 has an onslaught of upcoming exclusive games. I know u mentioned some of these, but here's a quick list:
1. M.A.G. (256 players online, NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE)
2. God of War III
3. Heavy Rain (as u mentioned...does truly look like it will redefine gaming in several ways: gameplay, emotion, graphics)
4. Agent (PS3 exclusive from makers of grand theft auto series)
5. The Last Guardian (as u mentioned)
6. Twisted Metal PS3
7. Quantum (Gears of War-like 3rd person shooter, so maybe it won't interest u)
8. White Knight Chronicles (RPG)
9. Gran Turismo 5 (although u said this doesn't interest u)

There are more, but I just mentioned the biggest games. 360 does have some positives, but in my opinion, PS3 just blows 360 out of the water, especially with exclusive games and bluray. By my count, 360 has about 4-5 upcoming exclusives, and one of those may actually come out for PS3 anyways (Mass Effect 2). Just my opinion, but I say PS3 hands down.

Listen to this guy , he speaks the unbias truth....

I agree. But then again, these are very good reasons to buy a PS3. Just for this, I would tell u to buy a PS3 just bcus it has a better future vs. the 360. If u asked this exact question a year ago, I would of told u to get a 360. But now the ps3 is $299 and some very good games coming out, I am telling u go buy it. Free online, plenty of gr8 games coming up, and the exclusive lineup is unbeatable. U wont feel dissapointed with the quality your getting.

Definitely agree with this......perfectly summed up what both the 360 and ps3 have to offer in one unbias post....

I ,for one, am tired at seeing all this bias posts that pop up in these types of threads but I can say truthfully that pitzy's post was a breath of fresh air.



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

If you buy Xbox 360, just be ready to buy all it accessories, and Extra 360 in case you get Red Ring Of Death.

Dsister , unbias posts are no laughing matter.........straighten up before I call the mods on you.

radiantshadow92 on 25 October 2009

sure, a ps3 does have a little less value in the western games but its really not too big....fallout is just the same *only there a frame rate drops hear and there.....thats basically the same for all the weserns...too add, a most jrpg on the 360 are being ported to the 360 with a bunch of extra content...so go for the ps3



SimonSaysFYou on 25 October 2009

Man, all these PS3 fans are making ME want to go and buy one now...

The problem with PS3 is their Western games aren't supposed to be as good as the 360 versions.  And a lot of exclusive content goes to the 360 games as well.

 

The multiplat games differences are getting smaller and smaller... in fact, you could almost call that a problem of the past. As for DLC, you have a point - the question is just: a) how important is DLC to you, and b) how much patience have you got? (since much of the DLC is just timed exclusive)

 

Other than that, it's really just up to taste... both systems have great exclusives, I'd just pick the one whose present and upcoming library appeals more to you (due to whatever reasons). Other advantages: the PS3 has actually a kinda great value now with the cheaper price (Blu-ray, games, ...), Xbox 360 still is the #1 choice for online gaming though. You have to know yourself what's more important to you.

 

 

Do blu-ray movies look that much better than regular dvds?  I've never watched a blu-ray movie.

Yeah they look better. I own Sweeney Todd on both blu-ray and DVD, and blu-ray was noticeably better (using a 32' 720p TV.) Also The Nightmare Before Christmas looks gorgeous on blu-ray.

As for the Bayonetta thing, it's only 2 points of a difference. I played the Bayonetta PS3 demo, and it wasn't that bad. As long as you don't have the superior 360 version running alongside, it should be alright.
