it still breaks when you move it while a disk is in motion and its curved design would cause gpu damage if knocked over

Why would you move it while a game was inside playing?   And why would a console be in danger of being knocked over,  it is reccommended you lie them on their side anyway.  Problem solved

talking about toddlers running around stepping on it happened to me

lmao yeah I can vouch for this sort of thing. My fuckin dog stepped on my 360 a while ago, it didn't break it but it scratched the fuck out of my GTA4 disk.

Again I dont see how both of your irresponsibilities should count against the design of the systems.  If your console is in that kind of "danger", so to speak,  than move it to a place where it cant happen.  Problem solved again.

my point is that that wont happen on the ps3

What won't happen?  A dog won't step on a PS3 or if a running PS3 that's vertical won't scratch a disc if it falls over?  I'm not willing to test it out ('cause I treat my consoles like royalty).  Why anybody sits a console in harms way is beyond me.  These things aren't toys.  They're pretty high tech pieces of equipment.  Nobody puts their DVD/Blu Ray Player/Computer in the middle of the floor.  Why is that?

The multi layer ps3 discs makes them highly resistant to scratches. Whereas the DVD format of the 360 still has significant potential for disc failure. 

I got a blu ray from some guy at Gamestop when he was trading in his PS3 (don't know what he was getting).  They had no use for the disc with all of the trailers and I wanted the blu-ray case to put a Dead Space in (I bought from a rental store without an actual blu-ray case).  I took it upon myself to destroy that blu ray since I already had the same disc with MY PS3.  It was pretty durable.  The protective coat pealed off like a sticker! 

It doesn't have much to do with this thread or your post.  I'm just bored so I post random life stories on the internet.

Not a bad video. Only one score I disagree strongly with and that's in the graphics department.

Was kinda lolz worthy that 2 guys scored the graphics on the ps3 and 360 equally. But I suppose it's opinion based ultimately.

 


Mulitplats generally are as good or better on 360, a handful of PS3 exclusives look better than anything on the 360.  When you weigh up the difference be thankful they gave the PS3 the same score as the vast majority of titles look as good or better on the 360.

i hate it when people say it balances out because some multi-plats, occasionally, look better on the 360,
thats like saying a country that won gold,silver,bronze in a Olympic game is overall about as good as a country that gets 3rd 4th and 5th.
its about the winners, not the failures.


You might have a point if your analogy was even remotely close to what I said.  It is more like saying a country that won just 3 gold medals is better than one that won 15 silvers and 30 bronzes. In that example which is far more accurate your "hate" seems rather biased to suit an agenda you have imo.

For the record I didn't say the guys opinion was wrong, I stated depending on how you weighted each example he could have scored heavily against the PS3 so should be grateful he didn't. 

If it's about the winners then the 360 has FAR more than the PS3 in graphical comparison stakes.


The country with 3 gold medals still has the 3 best, thus it has the best (insert any sportsman).

Shame the 3 best were in hockey, equestrian and archery but hey your opinion don't hurt me.

well in this case it has the gold in graphics.
And no problem i was just correcting your mistakes.
and that makes it that much better knowing i didnt hurt your feelings.


Glad I could make you feel better.  My opinion is not a mistake, neither is it wrong, it's just different to yours.  And no I think the medal system sucks as do many other sports which is why motorsports for example use the points sytem which is more accurate as its based on consistancy over time rather than "freak" results.  So to sum up, nope it didn't take gold in this review and I've just highlighted why people could agree with their assessment (which is still might I add a highly subjective piece and not in the least bit factual).
