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

True, I may have to get rid of my 360 when my xbox live runs out cause I don't want to pay. Also I reserved a PS3 slim.

Microsoft doesn't have to worry about making money on their console.

Exactly.

There's always people saying how Sony never makes money on the PS3, but I havent read a single article saying Microsoft makes any actual profit on hardware either. People ignore it because for Microsoft it doesnt really matter.

(Please if you have evidence showing the 360 being profitable, share it. And not those stupid financial reports that combine half of Microsoft into the entertainment division.)

Theres no reason to get rid of your 360, keep it for exclusive games only like me and buy all online or multi-platform games for your PS3 Slim.

this thread is a lockable from the OP if i ever saw one....

Some of you are a little slow.  This thread is simply about what you get for your $299.  There's a pretty night and day difference.



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

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

Exactly!!  And that is why some people will pick one and other people will pick the other.

How about you just don't worry about it ok?  Go back to playing your PS3.

I like you.

But when it comes to certain users on VGChartz or more or less anywhere they think the 360 and PS3 are like fire and water.

 

I hear ya man!  I just don't get why though...

Its just so foolish.

No. His point is not subjective. Let me draw you a picture if you will. Blu-Ray is better tham DVD. The end. Not subjective. FACT. Wi-Fi is better than no Wi-Fi. The end. FACT. Ect,ect. The games are what's subjective and your post is what's absurd.

Blu-Ray isn't better when it comes to speed.

1X speed of Blu-ray is equal to 1.5X of DVD.

It sure as hell is better in every other way, thus better overall, so why cherry-pick?
