Title: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Boomkilla on April 18, 2009, 09:48:49 pm My XBox broke for the 2nd time, and I am not sure if I should get a new 360 or buy a PS3.
The Free Multiplayer I like, but I Xbox Live is Amazing. What should I get? Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Darkside on April 19, 2009, 12:15:38 am Well isnt that the 400$ question. i was wondering which of the 2 consoles was for me aswell. tell me what they advise you to do? :D
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Permanent Poopface on April 19, 2009, 01:42:11 pm well if the xbox has already broke on you twice, i'd say the ps3, plus the ps3 has many other things it can do other then just play a game
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on April 19, 2009, 05:17:21 pm Pay the $99.00 it costs to get microsoft to repair it. You will get your console back, a 1 Year waranty, and a free month of XBL. Seems like paying out $99 is cheaper than buying something 2-4 times as much
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on April 24, 2009, 09:07:11 am damn, i was going to make a topic w/ the same title but there is already one here.
I am going to buy one or the other (PS3/360) in about a week or two and I just wanted to get some input from you guys who have owned/played both systems. I loved my PS2 until it died and would love to play the newer versions of some of my favorite games like: Gran Tourismo (sp?), God of War, and a few others. I also want Blue-Ray cuz I haven't even seen anything in 1080p on my big bad new LCD. My problems w/ the PS3 are price and the online gaming. Is Xbox live really that much better? I don't want to pay for it and I'm not as **** a gamer as most of you so I'm not sure I really need Xbox live over PSN. The last thing I'm wondering about is streaming content from the consoles to the TV. Does anyone do this w/ their systems? If so, what was your experience w/ it like? I would love some good feedback on this guys, seriously. thanks, sorry for the long ass post Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Permanent Poopface on April 24, 2009, 10:11:25 am I own the ps3, but before I bought it I got a 300 dollar bluray player from costco, then I found on craigslist somebody selling a brand new still in box ps3 with gift receipt for 300. So I took back the bluray player to Costco and got the ps3. I couldnt be happier with the ps3 especially since they make updates for the firmware of the bluray player, also love the fact that I can just use my blutooth cellphone earpiece to talk in games on. I truly believe that the ps3 is worth the money especially if your into movies, make sure you get hdmi cable though.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on April 24, 2009, 10:17:14 am thanks for the input speedo. O0
i've got three extra 6ft hdmi cables just collecting dust. i saw a deal online one day and got all three for $10 (and they're v1.3b) the only thing i have hooked up via hdmi right now is my dvr so, anyone else got some input for me? specifically, comparing the 360 and PS3? Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: undrclsshero on April 24, 2009, 01:56:42 pm Friends vs cost I think. More of us have 360's for sure but the games are 60$ and XBL cost $50/year. I got the 360 because that is what my son wanted it as most of his friends play there.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MessakiNg on April 24, 2009, 03:26:12 pm It comes down to personal choice. i was going to buy my bros ps3 off of him when metal gear came out. I had it for about a week beat metal gear and didnt touch it after. I played resistance and wasnt impressed. most people online dont have mics anyway i was trying to message people with text the whole time.
I ended up getting the xbox when tekken6 was announced for xbox since thats the game im anticipating to this day. IT was a plus that more of my family and friends have 360s and even more of a plus that so many MoHers have them. I watch movies on my xbox using a usb micro sd adapter...avi mpeg wmv w/e it playes them. I dont really stream but i think tyson does. plus there is the whole netflix thing on the xbox if your into that . i play my mp3 playing while in game and what not. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Holy on April 24, 2009, 07:57:27 pm well 1st thing is 1st. The cost.
xbox (250)+ XBL(50) + (you might need it or not, for me i would) wireless adapter (90)= 390 Ps3 (400) +................= 400 A lot of people say that the xbox is a lot less money, but for some ppl like me, they are about the same. Games Xbox-- Halo, Gears of War, Bioshock Ps3-- MGs4, Little Big Planet, Killzone 2 Online They are both pretty much the same thing except for minor things. For Example, in COD waw for the xbox you can see the leaderboards for specific game modes, for the ps3 you can't. IMO $50 is'nt worth those minor diffrences Movies and Songs The Ps3 has a built in Blue Ray and you can get free songs easily in only a matter of minutes. You can even play songs while in game for certain games like Killzone2. The xbox im not completely sure, but i think the ps3 wins in this category. So IMO the ps3 is better, well for me at least. I know some will disagree and fight over what i just said, but those are the facts. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Marxist Dictator on April 24, 2009, 09:07:07 pm PillowTEC and myself actually play both so sooner or later we'll both give unbiased opinions >_>
Here's mine anyway. XBL is a lot more robust for teamspeak, adding friends and playing with them. As of right now you can't invite friends without the in-game invite screen (so the only thing you get out of selecting their profile is the ability to message them) so yeah, until the PS3 picks up the slack (they basically just included message feature) the 360 shits all over them in this regard. Lag is basically equal. Time-shift lag happens more on the PS3, but hit-detection is a lot better. At least from the games I play (the AK can actually snipe, but kill cams can lag back sometimes 2-3 seconds). They're sort of equal; unless you're playing FPS games stick with the 360. Exclusives definitely go to the PS3. The fact that they get any is awesome. L4D/GoW2/H3/Halo Wars just don't cut it. Well, L4D does but I won't ever buy/get into the rest. Controls are basically equal, but the screwed up bumper locations **** me off on the PS3, but maybe that's just because I'm so used to the 360 >_> Cost is equal. I paid $721 for CoD4/360 Pro (back when they were around $400), a wireless adapter, another controller, a year of LIVE and just recently a 120 g HDD. My brother paid around $697 for his, along with CoD4 and his headset. I didn't need most of the things I bought anyway. 360 ftw in terms of online competition. As if my casual-raping PS3 CoD4 KDR wasn't a big enough indication. So yeah. If you actually like competitive play with friends, go for a 360. Otherwise the PS3 is good. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on April 25, 2009, 07:53:17 am well, thanks guys for all the input. I think my head is going to explode from trying to decide on this one. it seems like the xbox is the better online gaming system and the PS3 is the better media center (which is important to me). I always planned on getting a ps3 but just wanted to check w/ people who have owned or played both. This makes it much more difficult to decide. I'll let you know which one I pick up so you can "teach" me how to play when I get one.
@ mess, if i go w/ the xbox, i definetly wanna play some tekken against you. that was my favorite fighting game for many years. what about racing. i love gran tourismo but it seems like the other racers have caught up w/ it now. is it not the best racer anymore? Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Holy on April 25, 2009, 10:31:40 am So yeah. If you actually like competitive play with friends, go for a 360. Otherwise the PS3 is good. Well you can't really say which one is better, because it depends what games you are playing ( unless you are talking about communication, like more profile customness, in which the xbox is better ) Just pick the system that you'll be happy with, which one can you see yourself waking up next to every morning with b)Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: [BC]GNARKiLL on April 25, 2009, 11:14:50 am ps3
killzone, mgs are the best games ive ever played and u can customize the songs u listen to while u play killzone also you dont have to pay for internet and can hook up wirelessly without any cost Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MessakiNg on April 25, 2009, 11:50:20 am well IF you get a xbox ill be ready for you >:D. Ive played tekken since tekken one first popped up at our billards spot. then when i got tekken2 on psx it was on... dang i cant wait for it. fall seems so far away now :(
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: NyBxJkw718 on April 25, 2009, 12:00:44 pm I have a 360 so I say 360 is better.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: LOTRboy88 on April 25, 2009, 02:21:22 pm Honeslty, i dont know why people cant wait a few weeks for a system to be repaired. Technology isnt perfect. I dont know why people complain about the price of LIVE. If you cant afford 7 bucks a month you shouldnt be playing games in the 1st place. I said this in AoW's cb like 2 days ago. I can find 7 bucks in pennies in my home. So Online shouldnt be the issue.
Its what YOU enjoy more. Do you like games like Gears of war 2 or Cod4/WaW with teamspeak or do you like Mgs4/r2 with bluray? Both systems play movies, music and videos. The 360 has Marketplace which allows you to download demos, game-add ons. themes/gamerpics for your dashboard GT even shows n movies like 'House" (i own all 5 seasons) or QoS/casino royale. I believe the Ps3 has something like that on psn. (i think) Theres lots of games on both systems. By not being biased like some of the above posters, the ps3 has byfar more exclusive supported games (which are better - little BP, mgs4, r2, gow3 and others) handa down. But then the 2nd and 3rd party games with live absolutely pwn (cod4, nhl 09, mcla, madden 09 and bioshock) on the 360 no ?'s asked in my opinion. Then you cant forget Gears 2 and Halo 3. It all comes down to your taste. If your gonna actually choose a system based on price then the ps3 is better...A LOT better. If you want a better gaming expeirence, then get the 360. Live isnt that much. <_< I love my 360. Got the RRoD once and it didnt bother me one bit. Shouldnt bother you either. Title: Re: 360 or PS3????

(i think) yea ps3 has all thatpretty much the main reason i chose ps3 over 360 is the exclusives and i dont rly like the 360s exclusives but 360 stills gud Title: Re: 360 or PS3????

I know some will disagree and fight over what i just said, but those are the facts. MOst people use the regular ethernet cable to there 360... so that means you can subtract the $90-100 it costs for an wireless adapter. If you need an ethernet cable....theres this place called wal-mart that sells them for under 20 lol. The 360 is better suited for online gameplay. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Permanent Poopface on May 10, 2009, 03:46:31 pm I think alot of people use wireless for a cleaner look, or because they are set up in a bad spot.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: DoubleGunz on May 11, 2009, 07:12:46 pm Get a PS3 and play with me and SmartGuy. O0
Haha, Holy too! And Holy, you can play music on 360 I'm pretty sure. Most of my friends have one, ;p Meh. PS3 will always > 360. ^-^ Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on May 12, 2009, 09:59:00 am i damn near bought a PS3 this weekend but my conscience got the better of me (actually my wife gave me the look). I keep trying to make myself wait for the price drop but i'm getting **** anxious.
Get a PS3 and play with me and SmartGuy. O0 Haha, Holy too! what games do you play? Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: TadaFoo on May 19, 2009, 01:11:37 pm i damn near bought a PS3 this weekend but my conscience got the better of me (actually my wife gave me the look). I keep trying to make myself wait for the price drop but i'm getting humping anxious. what games do you play? I feel your pain. I stood in line with a PS3 in hand 3 times and never bought it. Finally got it for a b-day present but it was torture up to that point. Anyway another price drop rumor hit again today. $100 less.... sometime this summer. Hope you can hold out O0 PS3 FTW Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on May 19, 2009, 01:27:07 pm did you see the PS3 slim rumor today?
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Holy on May 19, 2009, 02:03:59 pm Most of us play CøD WaW,CøD 4, or both. We chat ( u can chat even if your playing a different game) everyday, its a bunch of fun
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: KrazyZeldaFan on May 19, 2009, 04:49:35 pm The PS3 and the 360 are both good consoles, but it just depends what you go after more. Alot of people say the PS3 has no exclusive games... NO GOOD EXCLUSIVE GAMES LOL? PS3 has better exclusive games than the 360. What does the 360 have that makes the console stand out the most? Halo and Gears. I must say Halo isn't that great and it's really overrated... The PS3 has MGS4, Killzone2, Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet, Uncharted, Socom U.S Navy Seals Confrontation.
Let's not forget about some of the upcoming games too... God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Massive Action Game, Jak4, and some others. You can say that the online on the PS3 sucks or lags but it doesn't. The only game it really lags bad on is Call of Duty just because of users hosted games. Games like Killzone2 and Resistance 2 will never lag at all if you have a good connection. Even if you have a decent connection it will still run fine. For those of you who haven't of MAG it's a 256 multiplayer online game. 256 PLAYERS! That just shows you how good PSN's servers are. Being able to host a 256 online multiplayer game on a Free Gaming service really says alot... :D I mean i know alot of people say XBL isn't alot but i rather play online for free and still experince the same amount of fun. PSN also likes to give out alot of free things too. They give out alot fo Free betas and even free games. I love it. The Playstation store is full of goodies like the XBL market place. Themes, games, blue ray movies, HD movies, renting movies, TV shows, demos, Game trailers, Game Add-on's, and etc... There is a thing called the PlayStation Home that just came out this december. It's a really nice feature to PSN. It's a virtual world were you can chat and meet new friends, play different mini games, buy clothing, buy a house, buy furniture and etc... PlayStation Home is a free addition. I bet if something like that came out to the 360 they would charge you for it. Anyways, the PS3 is getting a $100 price drop very soon and i'm guessing it will be the last price drop until a few more years. O0 Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: TadaFoo on May 19, 2009, 04:54:49 pm did you see the PS3 slim rumor today? Yeah and sounds little scary b/c I think that there's too much under tha hood to trim it down like the PS2 slim. I'm predicting a PS3 slim = RROD Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MessakiNg on May 19, 2009, 04:59:03 pm lawl at ps3 getting a price drop rumor recently cuz they have THE worst selling handheld and system this gen. still being outsold by the ps2.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Mr. coolguy Sethman on May 24, 2009, 05:37:46 pm Reasons I bought PS3 over Xbox:
Live. I hear it's really good from alot of people, but I would rather use the $50 dollars for another game. Price. I'd have to get a wireless adapter, $100 right there. I'm set up in my room, and the router is about 30 feet away. I'd have to either drill holes, and run it through my basement, or run it around the halls, and have the house look like a cluster Fux. RRoD. I live in a rural little small town. In Kansas. I sent my wii into Nintendo, and it took about 3 weeks to get it back. I missed out on MoH's launch. I also convinced my parent's that bluray was the better deal, and HDDVD lost the race. I payed $280 for my PS3, off of ebay. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on May 24, 2009, 07:47:44 pm Reason I didnt get a ps3, it has the most potential but doesnt use it....kind of like the wii.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: KrazyZeldaFan on May 24, 2009, 11:33:25 pm your not smart...
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on May 25, 2009, 09:32:56 pm no actually i am, there is a ps3 at my house, my bro bought it. i played it a few times and it didnt compare to the 360. trust me this isn't biasness or fanboyism this is the truth
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: KrazyZeldaFan on May 26, 2009, 05:57:58 pm Give me more details... how doesn't it compare? What makes the 360 batter than the PS3? Huh? I need more info than just it doesn't compare to the 360 :)
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on May 27, 2009, 06:13:18 pm Online is tons better. I like FPSs and RPGs both of which the 360 dominates the PS3 in. The PS3 has 3 games that I liked out of my bro's 20 games. He has all the so-called big hits for the ps3 as well. The PS2 dominated last gen, but it wont this gen.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Permanent Poopface on May 27, 2009, 06:21:28 pm no because the wii is.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MrPillow on May 27, 2009, 07:29:39 pm I am an owner of all 3 consoles, and have put many hours into each.
The PS3 has a VASTLY superior gaming library. MGS4, LittleBigPlanet, Resistance 2 (single player anyways), and other exclusives are simply amazing. It is also significantly less laggy than XBL and NWFC. Resistance 2 really wouldn't have much of a difference between online and lan. Even Anwhistle admitted that when he played the PS3 version of COD4 he'd be thrown off because he'd get 2hitted by an AK from across the map. That said, 360 has a much larger population. If you're more into the social gaming you'll have a much better time playing 360, especially with its awesome party system. The PS3 simply crushes it when comparing game quality though.

Those are the big shooter games known on the PlayStation 3 real well. 360 does have more RPG's though but they don't look really great at all, but Sony is starting focus more on producing more RPG games. I've had a 360 and own a PS3, and the online isn't really a difference at all. Title: Re: 360 or PS3????

Zipper F'ed up socom, but they have brought it back to it's normal self with a number of patches, and now they are releasing a major patch this june. Socom isn't the worst game. It's about the only shooter game i played that takes some real skill and thoughts. There is no re spawn, so it's like real life. The game is only fun if you have a clan to play with. If you have the game with no clan then the game is going to suck for you because socom is based off of communication, tactics, and skill. Title: Re: 360 or PS3????

I'm pretty sure I was actually supportive of the PS3 online service roflThe PS3 has a VASTLY superior gaming library. MGS4, LittleBigPlanet, Resistance 2 (single player anyways), and other exclusives are simply amazing. It is also significantly less laggy than XBL and NWFC. Resistance 2 really wouldn't have much of a difference between online and lan. Even Anwhistle admitted that when he played the PS3 version of COD4 he'd be thrown off because he'd get 2hitted by an AK from across the map. That said, 360 has a much larger population. If you're more into the social gaming you'll have a much better time playing 360, especially with its awesome party system. The PS3 simply crushes it when comparing game quality though. If it had the same friend-friendly service as the 360 I'd probably sell it D: Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: AoW_LeahciM on May 27, 2009, 09:33:39 pm i reccomend ps3 cuz u dont have to pay for online and you dont get the 3 rings of death O0
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on May 27, 2009, 09:54:42 pm Star Ocean 4, The Last Remnant, Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, (not too mention all those RPG's are exclusive) etc. There are multiple good RPG's on the 360 vs Sony's 1 good one presently, so much for none look good eh? Gears and Halo are not the only FPS' on the 360, it would help if you actually knew more than just big name titles for the system.
FPS online competition on the PS3 sucks (CoD 4's especially). MGS4 online is ok as is Resistance 2's. Little Big Planet was entertaining for a while, kind of like the original animal crossing. Killzone 2 and Resistance 1 both suck imo. They get boring quickly. Perhaps thats why the first killzone failed miserably. Sony has potential but hasn't used it. I would rather buy a system that has instant playability, instead of a "wait around a few years" like the wii and PS3 (presently). As for M.A.G. I am not going to acknowledge "what ifs" or "this looks amazing" until its out. Brawl, Halo 3, SC4, MK vs DC, and and pretty much 80% of wii games had that "this looks amazing" factor to it and once the game released it failed. Until it is out I have no comment on it. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: TadaFoo on May 28, 2009, 08:44:59 am PS3 silm confirmed :o ... PS3 Price drop no where to be found only a new bundle w/ two games.
Oh and the Last Remnant is not "exclusive". I think it's on the PC and TBA for PS3 in 2009. But who really cares when FF XIII is finally on its way. 8) Quality over quantity....fanboys! :D Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on May 28, 2009, 08:46:12 am I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go w/ the PS3

well, I'm gonna keep waiting for it to either drop in price or come out w/ the slim cuz I've blown way too much money lately anyway. I'm still gonna get one... someday. guess I'll keep waggling my wii for a while oh, and thanks for the link O0 Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Permanent Poopface on May 28, 2009, 01:05:57 pm if they make a slim one I bet the brick will be on the cord this time
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on May 28, 2009, 03:01:11 pm I forgot its out on the PC, its been canceled like 5 times on the ps3 and re confirmed for release
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MrPillow on May 28, 2009, 07:34:47 pm Hey DragonSly, The Last Remnant isn't exclusive. There's also a PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia in the works, with bonus character. In addition, it has Valkyria Chronicles, Disgaea 3, and White Knight Chronicles, as well as a vastly superior version of Eternal Sonata. You can also get Suikoden and Wild Arms off PSN store for $6 each. Where's classic RPGs on 360?
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Marxist Dictator on May 28, 2009, 08:34:06 pm There's no difference for 90% of the community competition in the PS3/360 online whatsoever.
You're BS'd by everything on the 360 due to latency/bad hit detection, while on the PS3 these things rarely happen so you're under the illusion that everyone is worse, while in actuality the game's playing at your skill level instead of skill level + considerable luck. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Permanent Poopface on May 28, 2009, 09:16:23 pm ^^ this has to do with everybody being on a mic
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MrPillow on May 28, 2009, 10:00:57 pm Not just that, but everyone on 360 being in a party chat which is comparable to Skyping while playing Wii.

Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on May 29, 2009, 07:39:47 am wait, who's dragonsly and why doesn't he play anymore MoH?
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: TadaFoo on May 29, 2009, 08:22:25 am I don't think law school kid is Drangonsly :-\. I think he's in the top 100 players list of MoH and one of the Old HW founders . But if you ask me Dragonsly had some of the best village games eventhough he's a 360,Akuma lovin FOO ; )
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: Cadillak on May 29, 2009, 08:25:47 am i used to love playing dragonsly in the village, he was always there. everyone hates village now :-[

Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: TadaFoo on June 02, 2009, 04:34:19 pm Hello Tada, I barely come here, hence the like 20 posts lol. Btw, Ryu <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< AKUMA LOL, Ahh now everything is clear. Btw are you still considering getting a ps3? FFXIV due out next year and no that is not an error (FF14). http://kotaku.com/5276066/ps3-exclusive-final-fantasy-xiv-announced But you probably knew that already...damn u DS :P Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: MessakiNg on June 02, 2009, 05:03:03 pm Akuma used to be the man ryu is far superior to akuma in SF4 Gouken is more fun to use though. doesnt have a very strong rushdown game but alot more mind games.
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on June 02, 2009, 08:13:12 pm I haven't tried SF4 yet. Plan on getting it later though (price drop lol) Akuma has been better in Ryu in like every anime, not to mention Marvel vs Capcom 2, Capcom vs SNK, the alpha series lol need I go on?
Nah FF XIV is online, most likely will be like FF XI so im not interested. My bro has a PS3, I might by my own + an HD-tv when I graduate college in December. Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on June 02, 2009, 08:14:44 pm I am getting Tom Clancy's Conviction pending if a demo is released or after renting the game, looks like it has potential. I am sadend though that there was nothing mentioned of I Am Alive, I've been anticipating that game since the teaser in E3 08
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: TadaFoo on June 03, 2009, 08:36:19 am Yeah i wasn't sure if you we're into the multilayer format of FF(i'm not either). But i have to agree with you , Tom Clancy's Conviction does look sweet!
But MessakIN hit the nail on the head for SF4. Gouken is awesome 8) Although Ryu always pwns(Any game)... epically in these hands ^-^ Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: SomeOneSly on June 03, 2009, 04:00:40 pm Akuma > Fei Long = Ken > Ryu 8)
Title: Re: 360 or PS3???? Post by: DarkFire139 on July 18, 2009, 11:05:36 pm I'm gonna get an Xbox360 soon. O0 thought u didnt want a 360(glad u r though) |
