Forums - Sony - PS3 Slim and 360 Elite at same $299 price makes 360 look primitive.

I love 360 and PS3 since i have both
but your thread is very absurd

The point is that the 360 has become the "expensive" console.



Keep this in mind when reading what I type...

I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.

I've never had a slot loading dvd drive on my computer - must be antiquated?

But this is based on whether or not they actually want that stuff. I have had my console since launch, and I have only bought 3 months of Xbox Live. I have also not bought a wirelesss adapter. Or an HDMI cable, which I do not have one for the PS3 either.

Yes, but the $299 360 doesn't compare so well with what you get with a $299 PS3. Particularly when you consider paying for several years of Live Gold.

Whoever thinks the new elite price will offset the slim are crazy



dougsdad0629 on 21 August 2009

I specifically mentioned in my original post that I was speaking of each company's FULLY FEATURED console.

And like several people already said me included, it all comes down to the type of games they like in the end. Most normal people would't have a need for all the features that the PS3 or 360 has.

There is lots of people believe it or not who only play single player and dont even bother with the internet side of things.
