Hmm. Another thing to consider is the PS3/PC/PS Vita cross platform play, and PS Vita game transferring.
I know two game that does this already and its Portal 2 and Wipeout 2048, and soon Dust 514 will be joining it.

Pc/PS3 cross gaming isnt happenning, even Valve already cancelled CS cross gameplay... No one cares about that and Pc gamers would destroy...

Ps Vita / Ps3 cross platform seems really really awesome, i hope that a good use for Sony and others. Im buying a Vita very soon, im just waiting too see the Console faith aka E3.

PS3

It has:
-Free online
-Bluray
-the best exclusives imo

You know I really tried to buy a 360 after 3 years again, but I just couldn't, 360 simply lacks exclusives, it was doing fine up until 2008.



please see the results and you can decide. Do not fall for other suggestions. Recommend.

I believe dust is going to though. Sony is the only company that seemingly wants to open up cross platform gaming.



PS3 without a doubt.

Between the two it all comes to the Sony exclusives because that's the only place imo the Playstation shines. Look closely because if you don't like shooters a lot of PS3 exclusives franchises are fps (but 360 is said to be plagued by that... nevermind). Look at the exclusives that interrest you on the PS3 and it not enough of them spark your interrest then get a 360.

Almost every multi games run better on 360 and it's the console that has more PC/360 exclusives and they're good. You might like multi games more than the exclusives also games like Assassin's Creed and Red Dead Redemption are a must. And even if you don't pay for Xbox Live or PSN both offer unique and amazing games via the arcade games (again don't listen to some here these are real complete games and a lot of them are amazing).

Car games are equal on both (I don't know the Motorstorm series but heard it''s good)
Fighting games get the edge on PS3 for extra characters on Mortal Kombat and SF vs Tekken
PC ports are a no brainer... they're better on 360
RPG's a no brainer as well as 360 gets more of greater quality as long as you don't consider Final Fantasy to be the only good rpg out there.
Adventure I would give it to Playstation

There's also the motion games. Coming from the Wii you will feel at home with the PS Move as it's virtually the same but in HD.

Kinect is what it is right now... still in child mode. Some games are interresting though but I wouldn't invest in one if I were you as you might have more fun with Wii games.

You could save up to 100$ by going with 360 on the console alone. PSN is free and you can't complain when it's free. XBL is amputed when you don't have a gold account.

How do you save $100 going with the 360? I saved more money with the PS3. Plus the PS3 is $50 cheaper.

For RPGs and Jrpgs easily the Xbox 360.

For Action Adventure Games its a Tie, on Ps3 you have Uncharted though wich is a big plus.

Best library is matter of opinion, for me 360 wins easily since i loved XBLA and its Exclusives and better multiplats, plus Xbox Live but for my brother per example he perfers Ps3 easily and he barely touches Xbox.


JRPG's are no longer larger in quantity on the 360. WRPG's yes, because of the PC ports, but then again most of those are still on the PS3.

whatever

If only it had Tales of Vesperia...

Let's hope Graces F and Xillia can compensate.



If you were interested in online, I would have told you 360 immediately, but being interested in Action/Adventure, PS3 is by far the better choice.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.

If your main interest is Action/Adventure and RPGs, go with the PS3. The 360's main selling points are its shooter franchises and online, so if you're not interested in those you'd be wasting your money.
