PS3 is better. It's theoretically more powerful and has a much better game lineup. While xbox has almost no good exclusives.

Despite the power difference, games look and play identical on both systems. PS3 has better games and more functionability, 360 is more friendly for online play.

I would still choose PS3 though just by the shear amount fo exclusives. To name a few:

Heavy rain
Beyond
GTA 5
MGS 4
FF versus XIII
God of War
Journey
The Last of Us

ect ect. The list just goes on and on. While xbox has what? Halo and gears? Fable is shit now.

For the record I own a 360. I don't own a PS3.


GTA5 is going to be a ps3 exclusive?

About to say, it wouldn't make sense for it not to be on 360.

Wait no, wasn't it $50mil? Anyway, I think R* should not make it a PS3 exclusive just for the reason of good business, but then again I heard R* wants to work more with the PS3 since it's got more power or something but I can hardly see the diff between both the 360's and PS3's specs. I guess it's because of a spacial issue between the 360 and PS3 in terms of Bluray vs DVD.

nope, https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=grand+theft+auto+75+million&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest
they also paid them money to keep the dlc on their console a year earlier than ps3 and pc.

PS3 is by far the better console. This isn't my opinion, it's an objective fact. There are countless negative aspects about the Xbox 360 that don't have any positives to balance them out. I know that when it comes down to it, personal preference in features rules all, but when you're talking about which is the "better" console, I've yet to see a convincing argument for the 360.

Here's a brief list of problems I have with the 360:

- Online service is by paid subscription
- Aspects of console are locked out unless you have a paid subscription, such as apps, even if the app has nothing to do with Xbox Live (Netflix, Youtube, both of which are free on PS3)
- Poor support for media files (has to be a specific format to play right, if at all)
- Poor support for plug-and-play media servers (PS3 has nearly flawless support for this)
- No Blu-Ray Support
- Terrible online shopping system, uses points rather than specific amounts
- Point cards come in awkward increments so that you rarely have enough to just get what you want, you're always over-paying
- Promotional points expire
- Terrible developer support for patches (TF2 on the 360 is shitty because of this policy)
- Company policy forces developers to charge for DLC (Bastion DLC was free everywhere, except for the 360 because of this policy)
- 360 Controllers aren't rechargable by default
- Heat Issues on most consoles (obvious one)
- Fucking ADS on the dashboard - even with a paid online account (seriously, what the fuck is this?)

I have a few more but you get the idea. The 360 falls short too many times, and doesn't have enough to redeem itself. There aren't that many good exclusive titles for it, and the only reason I have one is just because I would like to be able to play those exclusives that are good (I like Halo). Any game I can get, if I'm going to get it for a console I will go for PS3 first.

come to think of it, the points thing makes sense. A lot of games on the arcade are worth about 260 points, and the only increments you can buy are 160 and 400, (correct me if I'm wrong), so you'd end up buying more than you'd need, and the way it's set up, you'll end up with slightly less than what items cost.

Yeah microsoft are cunts. You have to buy points in a bundle, and companies purposely make it so that you need to buy more than what the game cost. So the game will cost like 103% of what it costs to get a certain amount of points.

If I wanted to buy minecraft, which I think is like $24 I would need to spend like $40 on points. Fuckers.
