Xbox 360

- Core Model was replaced by Arcade

  Wired Controller => Wireless Controller

  No internal Memory => 256 MB internal memory

  No HDMI port => HDMI port added

  $280 => $200  Core model didn't get all those changes at the same time, nor the price was cut from the original $300 to the current $200 in just one slash.  Nobody says those happened at once, this is what happened Eventually.


- Pro Model was upgraded

  HD : 20 GB => 60 GB

  Price : $400 => $300  Again, after two cuts and several hardware (board) revisions. Again, nobody claims this happened at once but eventually!


Xbox Live was upgraded with

- NXE ( looks horrible even in 720p...on a big 1080p display, resolution which the new NXE dashboard does NOT support, it looks hideous) and what about those Miis...lol, no comment on that.  I prefer the old blades)

  Avatars no comment...yeah, that's a pro, lol.

  Netflix for Xbox live GOLD users, yeah.

- Facebook, twitter, Hulu etc. No browser though, huh?

This is not about which one is better or worse, but about which one is getting or worse, and like it or not, 360 got a lot of additions, usefull upgrades and features!

Games

- 360 still has the largest library of games, both overall and yearly (but not necesserily the best. Exclusives lacking overall, specially this year), Nobody says best, which is a subjective opinion.

- 360 stole even more exclusives from ps3 (virtua fighter 5, ff13, new metall gear solid etc) irrelevant, just as with the hardware additions, all this does is make the 360 almost as good as the P3 has always been (hardware and library wise), which doesnt change the fact that 360 has been getting better!!! (regardless of it being better or worse than PS3)

- Xbox live games have increased substantially (the best exclusive downloadable games are in the PSN Store, period. Quantity doesn't equal quality.), again very subjective opinion and doesnt change the fact that Xbox Live games have increased tremendously

- Xbox 1 compability has increased (now more than 50% of original games are compatible) false. And microsoft is cutting off all xbox originals from the market place, what do u say about that), depends on your region, the compatibility is better than the launch while PS3 was removed!

- Games proved to be improving and better than/on par with ps3  false, fanboy shit, I am talking about Third party games graphics wise!

 

PS3

Cons
- PS2 compatibility was removed       still compatible with PS1,plus all the ps1 originals in the store is still miles better than mediocre Xbox 1 titles with weak compatibility for the 360. This is really fanboyish, who is talking about PS1 games??? We are not discussing which console is better, remember???

- Usb Ports were decreased from 4 to 2. Still more than the 360 and still more useful on the PS3. Do you remember what this post is about, hello??? Not about which console is better, but have they been better or worse!!!

- Flash card readers were removed. USB works all the same, no biggie. Doesnt change the fact that PS3 got ripped somehow why 360 keeps getting better!

- SACD support was removed. Who used that? lol Again doesnt change the fact that PS3 got ripped again!!!

- Hulu support was removed. whatever. Anything else to nitpick? how about the 3rd screw from the left above the middle metal plate covering the disc tray? yeah, you figured it out, the PS3 has no disc tray, it's all bullshit like this fanboy nitpick

These are examples, which clearly demostrates my point! Like it or leave it!

- Lost many exclusives to 360 You should see it as the 360 being decent enough to earn games developers never considered making for their failure Xbox system. Games like Final Fantasy or Metal Gear, Capcom franchises, GTA etc were never Sony exclusive as they were present in other system since forever.

 

Pros

- Home was added but received mixed reviews. Why list it as a pro just to follow it with a con? anyway, it's not even a pro. totally retard.  Home is a pro, because you can use it or not, all up to you. But not that decent.

- PSN has improved but still trails well behind Xbox Live  What's well behind? that is free and have tons of quality content, not to mention it's free and plays excellently flawless like Ripoff-Live?  Well, I dont wanna repeat what everybody knows, really, time to face the facts, so find an Xbox and spend some quality time at Xbox Live! which got even better by time

- Price was dropped by $100 but stays the most expensive console, and even more so in PAL regions. 'cause it's expensive to make and the makers want to make a profit? Its value is worth it, every penny. Still the 360 sells for half and nobody wants it, it seems they will have to cut it to $150 sooner or later before a $300 PS3 rips it a new one, cause at $200 it's the poorest seller ever this side of the old xbox and gamecube. You shouldnt forget the power of the Sony Brand and nobody wants it? It sold more than all Sega Consoles, Xbox 1, GC, is set to sell more than N64, probably SNES and possibly PS3. It is roughly at similar price point with Sega and Nintendo Products.

- Ps3 exclusives showed somewhat better graphics than 360, and 3rd part games compare better, although 360 still has a slight overall advantage. PS3 is getting games (in less than a year: Killzone 2, Infamous, Uncharted 2, MAG, R&C CiT, GodW3, Demon's Souls, White Knight Chronicles, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, Gran Turismo 5, Heavy Rain) 360 is getting scraps (halo ODST, overpriced, overrated DLC, piss poor sequels like forza 3 and left4dead 2, only good promising exclusive game in a LONG while is Splinter Cell Conviction)

 

Let's disscuss! There's nothing to discuss, really. You whole post is bullshit. You don't even list "cons" for the 360, so you're implying it has only gotten better really? well , what can I tell you, the 360 is really the one that needed and still needs to improve to catch up with the value the PS3 offers, even if it sells so low and being 1 year older, lol. It's a good system though, a poor man's choice or someone with really bad taste.

 

Try to be more open-minded and less defensive. I am, myself, a Sony fan, who loves the Sony games better than MS games but is highly disappointed by the stupid cocky Sony policies this generation! And I never claimed 360 is better than PS3.

So wait PS3's prcie has dropped 200 dollars , online service than has grown a incredible amount , has gotten Home , Life with Playstation , Trophies , Custom Soundtracks , a Video Store , In game XMB , dualshock 3 , and has gone from 60gb to 80gb .
PS2 backwards compatability was removed and probably is your strongest point , however , with us seeing the patent there is a good chance we will see this return. I think the PS3 has improved a lot , and taking away memory card readers and hulu support really doesn't change that.

I have nothing against the 360 I think it is a great machine in some aspects better than the PS3 , but it terms in how much each console has improved since launch I think you can make a strong case for PS3.
