Forums - Gaming Discussion - Should I buy a Xbox 360 or a PS3 ?

XBOX 360 hands down. I think it has some of the greatest games. There are far more RPG's and few more shooters on the 360 beside the PS3. Also I think that XBOX LIVE is a great place to play games and to meet others that have similar interests.   I also believe the 360 has a very comfortable controller that you can handle for hours without your hands getting sore.

Also, the 360 gets a lot of arcade exclusives along with other DLC exclusives.

Coming from someone that has both the 360 and PS3, I would strongly recommend the XBOX 360. What ever you decide on, have fun.

Add me to your LIVE friend list if you get the 360 -- macr0planet

Compare exclusives.

Shooters are pretty much equal. 360 Currently has more RPGs. Sports are pretty much all multiplats.

Are you interested in online?

XBL is considered the more complete service but it's 40$+ a year I believe. PSN is free.

Of the three biggest shooter franchises, two are exclusive to the Xbox 360. Then the third biggest Xbox 360 shooter exclusive Left 4 Dead is about as big as the two best from Sony.

Bah, I don't care about shooters.

@Kantor: Im trying to patch my reputation amongst the Xbox 360 fans with fair and equal treatment of the system.



Tease.

Don't listen to this guy, you can buy an Xbox 360 Jasper and you will not have any problems.

 

FPS/Shooters = x360 (Gears of war 1 & 2, Halo 3, etc)

RPG = x360 (Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, Fable, Mass Effect, etc)

Action/Adventure = PS3 (Uncharted, Ratchet, etc)

jasper still suffer from E74.

Not really... Is it that game that foolish people think will outsell Uncharted 2? I saw a video, total yawn fest which means its nothing when compared to Uncharted 2. 



Tease.

If I was the OP and read all 35 pages at this point, I think I would just say "fuck it" and quit gaming forever.



If you want multiplatform games, buy the cheaper xbox 360. If you want quality exclusives, buy a playstation 3. If you do buy a playstation 3, don't bother waiting for a pricecut, because it's a waste of time and you don't know when it will happen. As we are told not to expect a pricecut anytime soon.

PS3 for sure. Great games, the best controller ever designed, PSN, media streaming BD movies, better sound quality etc. etc. PS3 has better games. 360 has a ton of knockoffs that have sold a lot, but Sony has the quality titles. KZ2, GT5, Uncharted, Infamous, Ratchet, PAIN, Resistance, MGS, FF, Motorstorm, FIFA. GOW etc. etc.

^Highlighted made me laugh in 2007! LMAO!

Fixed.
