mr ailsbury Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Xbox 360 seems to have more players, but you have to pay to play onlinePS3 online is free, plus you get the Blu Ray player which is coolTo be honest I think it comes down to which controller you prefer, 'cause if you don't like the controller your going to be uncomfortable when playing so you won't enjoy it as much.I've had both and I prefer the PS3.

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I wish the PS3 would come with an option not to have the Blu-Ray thing... and so would be competitively priced against the Xbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Quigley Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I have owned both and can say the PS3 wins without a shadow of a doubt.all in all my PS3 cost me £300 with 3 games, hdmi cable, dvd remote and a 250gb hard drive.

Tomm Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 It doesn't really matter. If you need wifi, then factor that into the cost of the 360. If you want to watch Blu-rays then obviously the PS3 has an advantage. I don't know about the PS3 but the xbox online and marketplace is really cool. Just take your pick.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Just pick which one you want, your going to get arguements in here as to which one you should get. I personally like the xbox more then ps3 but just give both a go and see which one you prefer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 friends have x box's...Mmmmmmmmmmmmm whats the so special about the xbox elite?The same thing with Try-All parts. I think the PS3 will have a longer life due to it's multiple features. One thing i find annoying is the shit backwards compatibility on both machines, PS3 is non-existent. And the Xbox makes so much noise.I've not owned either and they both don't seem that great the more i look into it. I'm also just tempted lately to get the PS2 back out and play some PS1 classics instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Google the difference between the Elite and the Premium. I think there is a bigger hard drive and its in black, dont know what else off hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smo™ Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Personally I much prefer the PS3. I sold my 360 a while back and haven't regretted it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 hdmi output?Nope, both the premium and elite (and the arcade I think) can do HDMI output. But only the Elite comes with the cable. I think both come with component cables though. And obviously the hard drive. And don't forget that the premium one has to be white. To be honest the hard drive isn't that much of a big deal. I've had mine for around 6 months and I've filled up about 30Gb out of the 120Gb hard drive. That's mostly demos and stuff I could delete (but I might as well keep since I don't need the space). So yeah, 20Gb is fine I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hitcher Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) PS3 for the win, nice quiet machine, dont have to pay to play online, personally think ps3 is easier to use and buy stuff etc. plus added bonus of blu-ray + Controller doesnt weight eight tonnes either. There bringing out the new 80gb hard drives for the ps3, and you can just slam a big old hard drive in them aswell so space isn't an issue.

Tomm Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 PS3 for the win ~ Controller doesnt weight eight tonnes either.I found the PS3 control really quite strange, it seems too light to me. I guess it's a preference thing, but the xbox ones feel right to me, they're certainly not too heavy (and I have the wrists of an 8 year old girl).

TheCircus Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Buy a 360 unless you are a COMPLETE PUSSY.In terms of games 360 destroys PS3 every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneakers O'Toole Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 After lusting for a PS3 and then owning one i would definitley say do not get a PS3. They are overpriced and the games are not that good. I was lucky that i made my money back when i sold it. If you can still get those 360's for £129 i would go with that.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 If you go for a 360, dont buy the arcade version if you ever want to go online. FACT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCircus Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Elaborate, that would help. As someone could just mention Final Fantasy, Resident Evil & Metal Gear etc.Final Fantasy went massively downhill from 10 and 13 looks like a pile of wank, Resident Evil is multiplatform and also not staggering release dates. Metal Gear Solid is the only true PS3 exclusive though there is talk of it going to the 360 once they figure out how to condense it down/put it on a number of discs.Here is a list of awesome games exclusive to Xbox that won't be on PS3 anytime soon;Halo 3Fable 2Gears Of War seriesBanjo KazooieAce Combat seriesInfinite UndiscoveryLost OddyseyNinja Gaiden seriesViva PinataAll great games/series.
