So he threw a perfectly good console away because he got another one?

Sounds like either your friend is an idiot, or you're lying and you made the entire story up. Fanboys make me sick, like people need to claim allegiance to one sole console/brand at a time, and toss the others aside. Whats wrong with keeping both?

Fanboy Conversions... you guys need to get lives and forget this console war crap.


Perfectly good console? It had RROD for the 3rd time it was broke, un-playable. He didn't want to have to send it away to get fixed again so & I quote these were his words to me "I threw it out". Whether he actually physically threw it out in the trash, I don't know.

I just came on here to tell other people this, not to start some console war. I found it funny that my best friend who would of bad mouthed the Ps3 all day, eventually ended up getting one.

Calm down, Jesus.

Yeah I feel yah on that one. My car was acting up the other day so I put a brick on the gas pedal and drove it off a cliff as I jumped out. Why would anyone want to go through the hassle of getting something fixed under warranty for free?

I just have one question. If the PS3 "Only does everything" and if you stacked up all the features side by side of the two consoles (including add-ons, XBL/PSN, etc), would it not be accurate that the 360 "Does MORE of everything"?

I just keep imagining this slogan for the next batch of 360 commercials. It'd be both true and hilarious!

I don't really follow... especially now that PS3 has Netflix.

A watered down, disc based Netlfix, Huzzah!

And that was not exactly the only unique feature....

If you stack up all the features of XBL, PSN, Xbox 360, PS3, plus add-ons available to each, the 360 "Does MORE of everything"

  Plus it "Does MORE gaming" and "Does MORE entertainment" and "Has MORE fun time"

I didn't really follow the Netflix news (since I wasn't interested in it the first place), I thought you just had to put in the disc, and then you can stream. It's as much as a hastle as putting in a Bluray disc to watch a movie like most people do with PS3s anyway.

Even if we do consider the disc based thing a negative, it seems like a very very tiny weight on the scale.

Can you please be specific with the features and add ons of the two consoles? You take it for granted that everyone knows and understands what you're talking about.

I don't see how it does more gaming (sheer volume of titles are kinda weak, when we're this far in the gen with old games filling up that space), more entertainment seems on par now with Netflix multi, and more fun time seems very subjective.

 

Can you at least not seem blatantly fanboyish? When I want to be a fanboy, I at least acknowledge and half joke about it, or stealth it in. No one's going to come to your support with that kind of post attitude.

I am not trying to be a fanboy, just comically objecting to the PS3's very misleading and silly new slogan.

I guess if you really feel I need to expand, I shall.

I do agree that the fun time one was subjective.  I also would like to note that I do not include web-based applications with the PS3 because they are not built in features.  The Web Browser is the feature, not the uses of it.  The experiences with the PS3 web browser are also very limited seeing as how it is such a proprietary browser and does not support all the latest online media formats.  With Xbox 360 these are integrated into the online experience itself with unique and smooth flowing interfaces.  If I have missed anything or you wish to argue the point, feel free and I'll ammend the lists.  I would also like to note I am saying irregardless of price factors.

Just because its integrated you think Facebook and Twitter shouldn't count on the Playstation side? Or that you can listen to Last.FM using the browser. In fact, the browser offers huge amounts of freedom.  And really all the "X game store" on both sides should really only count as a single game store as both have similar offerings from what I've seen. You've also left out PSP support on the Playstation side. Plus ethernet is not an add-on (unless you mean the cable). And Kboard and Mouse. And the easy transfer of files from PC to console (on both sides). Are you sure you don't work for Ms as this is normally what companies do to spin there list of features for a device. Take very similar feature and repeat them to artificially inflate numbers.

Thank you for offering some options I missed.  I'm no expert on either.  Your attitude could have been a bit improved though. 

And I thought I explained very clearly how Facebook, Twitter, Last.FM, etc cannot count as PS3 features?

Funny stuff. On the PS3 side how about more and higher rated exclusives, Life with Playstation, photo gallery, remote play, blu ray disc live, listen to any radio station on the net not just one, youtube. I could go on all day. Feature wise the PS3 is the complete package and the xbox has some major flaws.
