I cant believe this thread was actually created lol but....

I own a PS3, and i would say yes, buy a PS3 for a number of reasons-

Blu-Ray, wireless rechargable controllers as standard, built in large hard drive, eventual BC, free online gaming, and a roster of exclusive games that includes MGS4, Tekken, Gran Turismo 5, Final Fantasy 13, Resistance 1 and 2, Motorstorm 1 and 2, LBP....



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

I have both and the 360 is easily the best gaming console and out of the two, I would say only the 360 is a "Must own."

If I didn't own a 360, right now, I would probably sell my PS3 to buy one.

Sorry PS3 fans, the console is fine, but several factors are included in my decision, the least of which is Sony's betreyal over Star Ocean, timed 360 exclusives, and Eternal Sonata.


If FFXIII was out, it might be a different story, but that game is possibly years away, and to speak frankly, by the time it is released, the PS3 will have received at least one price cut, and will probably have a bundle, so I'd wait.

It's MGS4 vs the world, really, and however good MGS4 is(fan-freakin-tastic admittedly), it'll be over in a week of playing.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Not to ride you or anything, but it is highly likely that  Bioshocks new content will be downloadable for 360.

Also, you left out FFXIII and Verses XIII.

M$ is losing some money on x360.

SO buy x360, and use cracked games. DON`T support GREEDY M$ and enjoy gaming. =)
Later, when games like FFXIII will be released with ps3 (maybe slim) at 299$ get the PS3. =)



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...

2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.


Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.

Final Fantasy X - around 2 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Final Fantasy X-2 - 2.4 mln. with 12 mln. PS2 on the launch.

 

1.8 mln. PS3 today(2008.01.17) in Japan. Now(2009.04.30) 3.16 mln. PS3 were sold in Japan.
PS3 will reach 4 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 25k.

PS3 may reach 5 mln. in Japan by the end of 2009 with average weekly sales 50k.
PS2 2001 vs PS3 2008 sales numbers =) + New games released in Japan by 2009 that passed 100k so far

 You have so many games missing from the PS3 list it's not even funny, including big hitters like Motorstorm, Resistance 1 and 2, Killzone 2, etc.. and some multiplatform ones you have listed on the 360 like Bioshock, Eternal Sonata, Sonic and Ninja Gaiden Sigma.


You also shouldn't use Xbox games unless you list PS2 and PS1 games because there are 80GB and 60GB available on ebay and amazon.

 

I hate people like minicook that revives old threads, however I'll stay on topic and say that right now I believe the 360 is a better bang for your buck but if you can comfortably afford the PS3, I'd go with that.

 not all content on xbox live requires you to pay for. Check out the add-ons section on market-place, there are dozens of free upgrades for 360 games. 

Because Bioshock is such an old game on the 360 now then the content will most likely be free for 360 users too.

i do know that as i have a 360, but i think for a game like Bioshock they might try and make more money, but hey i may be wrong.
