PS3 VS. Xbox 360, Which one? Options

[freeridefight]

I searched and found nothing on this, and in response to Tama's skill in the PS3 realm, I decided to make a topic.

I've have not jumped on the bandwagon and purchased either a 360 or PS3. I have googled the question and came up with the short answer of Xbox 360.

What is your take on all of this? If you'd like, specify as why your choice is better. (Graphics, game choice, etc.)

I so far haven't reasearched enough to have a valid opinion. (Ha, I'll laugh if this turns into such a fight it has to be moved to the debate forum.)

360 over the PS3.

The wii has won many of people over for how interactive it is. Nintendo is a great company for kids and families.

When it comes to the PS3 and the 360 your more or less stuck with 1 player games, and a majority of the games are fighting and 1st person shooter type games, not very family oriented.

360 has more games, a lot more cheaper games, and the system is cheaper as well.

PS3 currently is dying because they discontinued the 60 and 80 gig, hoping that they may come out with a 120 or 160 gig later this year, although the costs and such they may back down and settle at making a bundle with the 80 gig. The only thing the PS3 currently has going for it is that its the cheapest and one of the best blu ray players on the market right now. And since they just discontinued hi-def movies, the blue ray is going to take over soon enough.



Anyway, I have a Wii and 360. The PS3 hasn't appealed to me at all until recently since they have discontinued the hi-def movies and things are going to blue ray. But I'm having to wait til' the 80 gig comes out or if they ever release a PS3 that is completely backwards compatible. Considering I want to play PS2 games.

It's called "HD-DVD". BluRay is still a "hi-def movies" format. But yes HDDVD lost the race since many popular places are now supporting BluRay and sales from it definitely wins.

And the 60 gig PS3 is backwards compatible. It's just that they discontinued it. Also, people shouldn't base their console experience solely on the amount of games a system has. Notice how I said "solely." It should also be on the performance and features of the console as well. PS3 has potential, it just doesn't have the solid foundation and support that 360 has built for itself. Especially since the Wii came out around the same time, you know some shit went DOOWWWNNNN.

kthxbye.
