Actually, the PS3 isn't much more powerful at all. In fact you could argue that the 360 is more powerful. Wait for a price drop for the PS3 if you absolutely must have it.

 

 

edit- and welcome to the forums.


 

From what I've heard the PS3 is more powerful. Dont quote me on saying this but I have heard it on big sites like IGN or gamespot. Its just that 3rd party developers have no need to make a title any better on either system. Its just that ony hasnt released any big titles yet for the PS3 thats there own. From what I've heard FFXIII is going to be visually better then Hollywood movies. Plus I have also heard that the PS3 can support more people on screen, more polygons, and much more. Im not saying I said this because I have yet to own a PS3 but thats what I heard.

My opinion is that if Sony can make Square-Enix make games for them exclusivly then they will win. Seriously if Square wanted to make there own console it would probally sell more then all three of the consoles. Seriously they make the biggest games! SERIOUSLY! SERIOUSLY! Sorry I just notice I say that alot.


Indeed, Square is why I switched to Sony from Nintendo. Now that I also enjoy Dragon Quest, if square-enix did make their own console I'm sure they'd sell. I wonder what FF13 going to the 360 would do, considering more people have the PS3 in Japan already. I suppose RPG fans would assume that means more RPGs would follow and might lean towards the 360. It's important for Sony to keep that and MGS4 exclusive for at least through the launches. A price drop would do a lot, especially before this holiday season because I think price is the biggest hurdle at this point even though online gamers would be paying less in the long run than they would for a 360. Also, it's a shame more people didn't buy 20GB PS3s because those were a good deal.

I think Sony has a lot of good exclusives: GoW, Gran Turismo, MLB: The Show, Rachet and Clank, Jak and Dexter, etc. I think Sony has much better first party titles than Microsoft as far as total sales, but of course Sony is no nintendo that seems to have revived themselves the last year especially (remember, the PSP was very close to DS sales this time last year).

Also, about that price thing that people seem to have a problem accepting in a lump sum, here's a deal for $20 a month: http://www.peachdirect.com/product.tml?sku=PS3%20SCE%2098000

That ends up being $650 but hey, that's 1 year of xbox live difference over a few years.
