    Default What's best PS3 of xBox 360?

    A mature, reasoned debate please, no petty "mine's better than your's" slanging please.

    aye right ya f@&ing Fann&, your machine is made from old plastic cups, washing up bottles and egg trays

    Sigh, ye olde console war threads, will they ever end?!

    My opinion...

    PS3 = fantastic, expensive and not hacked.
    360 = fantastic, cheap and hacked.

    If the PS3 was hacked then I'd have one of those too.

    You right into Blu-ray mate?

    I prefer to just download my HD rips from the net, ~~~~ paying ?20 for a film

    I'm a tight cnut.

    Mate has a few Blu-ray for his ps3 but he has a pissy cheap lcd telly so the picture is...err....not so good. I've seen displays in shops where ps3's are showing Blu-ray movies and it's ~~~~~ing amazing. I keep asking my mate to bring his PS3 to my house to test it on my 50" HDTV but i think he knows that once i have it here I'll not give it back to him

    Mate the 360 is pretty cheap these days, especially the bottom of the range 'Arcade' machine, you should grab one, I think you'll be pretty suprised by the quality of the games for it, I swear they are every bit as gorgeous as the PS3 versions, not only that but the games are 'freeee'

    Arr, u said you're not really into games anyway, in that case forget it

    Ive only got a few Blu Ray at the moment but you can pick them up for a tenner now and again online. I'll get more of the movies I like when they become cheaper,
    once the discs and the burners become cheaper I'll do my own. Like i say games dont bother me, Ive got 3, RFOM, COD4 and another cant remember which, I had a few shots and they were ok ,fantasic graphics, I download alot of HD stuff to watch and the blu rays I have are amazing quality on the pio plasma,
    my brother in law buys at least 2-3 a week but he can afford it (git) and has the best of gear, pio lx70a, a 60 inch pio living room and a 42 in pio in games room with wii, ps3 xbox360, so wife borrows his blu rays.

    ive got them both,


    ps3 looks better (cosmetics) but isnt hacked (bad bad bad) fewer quality games but up side free online games for the games that are out and worth playing.

    360 hacked so alls good lots of quality games to choose from, pay to play but it aint bad as the 360 online knocks spots off the ps3 effort (may change when home comes out for ps3).

    360 at this minute in time kicks bells out of the ps3 on usablity ei: games and online.

    ps3 should or will kick ten bells out of the 360 if they sort some games and get it hacked and sort the online friends thing.

    im not a 360 fanboy (what the ~~~~ is a fanboy ) or a sony fanboy, i just enjoy a good game and i dont care what it looks like cometic wise all im intrested in is the playabilty and being able to find my mates on there.

    there will be an arguement for both when there both equal on the hack/online/games..

    gears for 360, worth having a 360 to play that alone (gears 2 too soon)

    ps3 soon to be worth having for metal gear alone.

    theres never going to be a winner or loser as no one agrees.

    i like vw you like ford sort of thing you wont change peoples minds if they have set it on one console, me ive the two so can tell it as i see it based on using both and not based on which i bought which is the usual case.

    two kids fighting on the net ps3 is best other one no 360 is best and neither one of them has even played on the other consle let alone owned one.

    no arguement to me unless you,ve had them both, then you can decide which you think is best and not which is best.

    I got both to. But to be honest, I aint even taken the PS3 out of the box, and probably wont until they are chipped. As I too am like witchy a right tight cnut. So I will stick with the stuff I got on the 360 for now, until MGS4 comes out, then I may be tempted to crack open the PS3.

    I've got both but end up playing on the 360 more, to be honest it's because the 360 controllers are miles better than the ps 3 ones, particularly racing games, the trigger buttons on 360 are so instinctive for braking/acceleration compared to the ones on the ps 3 my fingers slip off and they feel like they'll break if i get too excited on a game!

    ah im not the only one then when playing motor storm once the old fingers get a bit sweaty in the heat of excitement they slip off of those triggers far to easily.

    i had both yet still get called a 360 fanboy ,i dont think i am,but the 360 is the better machine at this moment in time,i will get another ps3 as soon as the insurance comes thru as it is a good machine and i really really like motorstorm

    the developers are struggling with the ps3 hardware and architecture at the moment
    ps3 ports to the 360 look ace
    but 360 ports to the ps3 fare much worse-this will be rectified ala ps2 once they get to grips with the machine

    there both proper games consoles not some fad like the wii

    as for the ps3 controller use the trigger extenders given away free with ps3world
    (i think)
