Since you have skype now, ask lakkus.  He uses his PS for everything. He even dropped his cable because he can stream TV and movies from it. Shocked

I dont really need all the features that the PS3 has. I bet i'd hardly use the blue ray player. Also I dont care that much for HD graphics, any improment in graphics from the Wii is fine.

More of my friends have a 360 so I think thats the direction Im going. Afro

LuftWaffle....

all you said was that the 360 has better exclusives. I'd like you to explain how

Halo as a series, Gears of War1+2, Forza2+3, Fable1,2,w.e,... what else?

it better than

Uncharted 1+2, Killzone2, inFamous, MAG, MetalGearSolid4, LittleBigPlanet, Heavy Rain, GranTurismo, God of War, Resistance1+2, Demons Souls, and kind of Final Fantasy.

I could have missed some on either side, but, that seems like a big difference - in Sonys favour.

Edit: Also, wtf about the buttons and the grenade thing... if that happens to you, it's just you, maybe some others, and it's only because you're not used to it.

I 'hate' the 360 controller because I'm used to the PS3's.

Well before this escalades to a humongous 10 page topic, i would like to say this. All the crap about, "$50 is worth all the features that the xbox has, the ps3 is laggy and bad" is actually funny, when i hear this, im just like wtf. When my friends and i argue about which is better they never give me specific reasons they just say its 'better, and cooler". This seems to be the general excuse for the people on the internet. They never state facts, they just want to protect thier ego because they own an xbox. Im not egotistical when it comes to the Ps3, i had the choice of either one, i picked the ps3 for a reason.....
I understand you if you're getting an xbox because your friends have one IBU. But in the past 10 months i believe, the Ps3 has been getting more sales and is rapidly catching popularity, so in the long run the ps3 is  Afro. And considering that the next generation systems arrive in 2 or 3 years i think that the ps3 is the way to go. The ps3 is now frequently surpassing the xbox, and the failure rate (over 50% of ppl get RROD, reliable source, GameInformer), and the Ps3 has a 11 % chance.
And in my situation i would need to buy a $90 wireless adapter because my modem is in a different room, plus another $50. Thats another $140 right there, where as the Ps3 both of those are free.
So if you want to keep this system for a while i would go with the Ps3, but its up to you.  Afro

And before someone posts negative towards my comment, plz post facts as i did.

For all the old folks out there, I see the PS3 as Betamax with a lot better marketing  Afro

DoubleGUnz all you mentioned were shooters and one racing game. If that all the 360 had it would be bad. There are tons more exclusives comming out for it, and that are out now. I am a RPG buff and i can tell you MS dominates sony in terms of RPGs. Because of this huge difference in rpgs i picked the 360 over sony when I was deciding a few years back.

I can actually careless about fanboyism to the console that they own. The ps3 has good qualities as well. Your choice should mainly be on what genre of games do you like. If you like shooters then you can flip a coin because both systems are about equal with their exclusive shooters (not to mention 90% of shooters are multi plat anyway), and the same goes with fighting games. RPGs are better and of better quality on the 360, etc. You need to find that out.

Also I would hold odd on getting MW2 if your getting a 360 until those damn glitches (i.e. unlimited toobing, unlimited ac130, unlimited ammo, glitching outside the map to kill, etc are taken care of)

Ibu get a ps3 Smiley You can't go wrong with either though I bought a ps3 and im loving it never going back to wii lol I like the ps3 exclusives more than the 360s the only game i want to play on xbox is l4d and I can play that on pc if i wanted to (most xbox games are also on pc). People say xbox live is better because of cross game chat/listening to music while you are playing games. Psn will probaley get cgc sometime and if you want to listen to music turn on the radio Afro

Thanks everyone.

Red I saw those videos a few days ago, they were very helpful Afro

Holy the next gen of gaming doesnt really affect me because in 3 years I'll be in college and I wont be bringing video games with me... Whichever system I get I will only play for the next 2 1/2 years maybe. But with a 360 I'll need to worry about getting red ringed., that's true.

DG I think I would like the PS3 exclusives more than Halo/Gears/etc. But as I already said, I think I would rather play/chat with my real life friends on Xbox than play PS3 games with people I don't know.
