You mean all RPGs or just WRPGs/JRPGs?

Mostly Western... Never played a JPRG - but am thinking about getting Xeno chronicles... I have skyrim for PC - but it runs like a bitch, and I haven't bothered playing more than 5-10 minutes because my computer's a piece of shit...

Well, in case of WRPGs I'd pick 360 over PS3 for better performing Skyrim, ME3 and a console exclusive Witcher 2.

However, for Action/Adventure I'd recommend PS3:

inFamous 1 and 2, Ratchet and Clank: ToD and aCiT, Uncharted 1-3, (does God of War 3 count?) and all the HD collections

Haha, you're not making this easier!!!

Get Ps3 + get Demon's Souls + get Dark Souls, then forget about your real life. The Ps2 collections are also a good incentive.
In favour of 360 I'll say it's cheaper, Gears Of War is a better tps than Uncharted, Forza 4 is better than GT5.

Get Ps3.

This is VGChartz, ps3 fans out number 360 fans 5:1. Ps3 will win in every one of these polls.


I guess you're a Microsoft kind of guy? Why should I buy the box then? Got any good games?

If you don't know what console or even game(s) you want to get I'd say you probably shouldn't buy any of them and just wait for the Wii U to release. Your PC cover up most games anyway.

Thing is, I want the Uncharted-series AND the Fable-series - but I ain't picking up both consoles this late in the game - with the WiiU approaching and all.

Then I'll say this: Uncharted is more of story/cinematics material while Fable is more gameplay based. So, watch the Uncharted walkthrough on youtube and buy yourself an Xbox! :D

I own both consoles. And both are very good! But i think that PS3 has better exclusive games, and in larger amount.

I'd say get a 360 if you were a online shooter kinda guy.

But since you're looking for Action/adventure/RPG, the choice is easy, get a playstation. For action/adventure you've all the multi-platforms, but what separates PS3 from 360 in this genre are exclusives, specifically The Uncharted and God of War series, both critically adored franchises. Personally I only get an RPG every now and then, it's not my favourite genre and many others on this site can tell you about that in more detail but from the little that I know, if you're more into western RPGs, 360 has a slight edge due to having the full Mass Effect series and the better port for Skyrim, however PS3 has it's fair share of WRPGs and is definitely the console you're looking for for JPRGs.

If you have the money, I'd say buy both as their both fantastic machines and you'll be missing out on something either way, but with respect to the type of games you're looking for, you'll be missing out significantly more if you get a 360, so get a PS3. Hope this helps :)

Yeah, I'd get them both - if nextgen wasn't approaching so fast :P I'll take your arguments under close consideration :D

Not sure what UC you are talking about but UC is plenty gameplay based >_> and the MP is addictive as hell
with games like infamous 1, 2, Festival of Blood, Valkyria Chronicles, Demons souls PLUS Multiplats and PS1 classics, I would say PS3.

The PS3.

It's an even clearer victory, if you haven't paid much attention to PlayStation before, because there's quite some PS1 classics on PSN that are worth looking into. Graphics and load times might be hard to bear at times though.

well, I had the first one - and really enjoyed it! hehe played soulblade till my fingers bleed almost ;)

Just invest in a 3DS to keep yourself busy until the Wii U releases. Seems to be the best option, because unlike the 360 and PS3, the 3DS won't be redundant for you in a year.

Very true! But I'm holding off of the 3DS until they redesign it and it gets some more quality SW... At the moment I'm mostly interested in OoT and Mario 3d land...

both... they are cheap as chips now.

I would, if Wii U wasn't approaching! At the moment they go for about 300 USD here in Sweden - which means 600 dollers, and then you gotta have at least a few games. You're quickly up at 800 USD... And I'm saving up for other stuff as well :P
