PS3.

 

why would I take your opinion seriously with that sig?

I'm not asking you to take my opinion, all the other post's summed up the features on both consoles.

You asked which one, I said it.

 

Actually, I sed "your thoughts???"

not "which one?!?"

So what made you decide to go for a X360?

Well its up to you, but here's my thoughts on the pro's of each console:

PS3:

- Blu Ray
- Many great games out, and more coming
- Free Online and built in Wifi
- Gran Turismo 5 (yes, it deserves its own point)

360:

- Great library of games out already (not so many still to come though)
- If you're willing to spend the $60/year, then Live is very fun.

Where do you guys come up with this stuff?  You can find 13 month live cards for 39.95 very easily.  Just take a look at this http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_constraint=0&ic=48_0&search_query=xbox+live+card&Find.x=0&Find.y=0&Find=Find

I am not certain if they are the same price as that in Walmart stores, but they aren't much more expensive.  I just bought one on new egg for the exact same price, no shipping and no tax.

 

I may be an xbox 360 supporter, however I never blatantly lie about the PS3 and its offerings.  I really don't get it.  Oh, the Eagles are going to lose this weekend.  GO GIANTS!!!

Edit - My bad didnt know it was resolved.



You might as well edit "I have decided to get an Xbox 360 because..." into your post, and bold it for good measure. It'll stop a massive fanboy war.

If you don't play that much online and you are poor, the choice is again simple.

 

Oh yes!  The 360 is the "poor" mans console.  Luckily enough for us PS3 owners there are no poor people who own it, thank god.

You know that's not what I meant. Don't be mean.

I don't have very much money, and the current playstation pricepoint scares me off, while the 360 pricepoint invites me in. That's what I meant.

 



This is invisible text!

If your on a budget and dont want wifi/bluray get a360 arcade/pro- 199/299

You can either buy a console all your friends own so you can share games- makes sense since people spend 2-3x times on software than the hardware

OR

buy a different console, eg. ps3 if you wanna play VC,KZ2,LBP,MGS4, uncharted,GT etc. or 360 if you wanna play Fable,Halo3,GOW2,VC,ME,IU,LO

JRPG fans will find the 360 to be the most tempting. Same for shooters.

The wii Id recommend only if you love nintendo titles. It does have a great library as well, but again it caters to a slightly different audience. you cant go wrong with SMG, zelda,smash bros,metroid etc. I dont fancy motion controls much though.



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

Congratulations on your decision.

The Xbox 360 provides the most extensive library of quality titles in almost every genre of gaming this generation thus far.

It is more than worth the money and I have no doubt you will enjoy it.
