I have a playstation 3 and i love it! My little sister is getting a wii and theyre alright i mean more of a family type system nothing for serious gamers or anything obviously... The ps3 vs. xbox360 debate: well in my opinion i think that the xbox360 is better even though i dont have one theyre still really amazing! The online experience is better and the system itself and the games are less expensive compares to the ps3's and there are waay more selection because the games and the system has been around longer than the ps3 has. Most of the things ive also noticed are the online servers and accounts. With the xbox360 the networks and user accounts are more secure than the ps3's because of the rescent network hacking on the ps3 where the network server was down for three months but i dont believe that has ever happened with the xbox360. Even though the ps3 has better graphics and ive heard it will last longer the xbox360 in my opinion is still alot better.

The three are great consoles, but in my opinion the PS3 wins there.

Wii: Is a excellent console to play with your family and friends at home, it has really fun games. Also is more than just a console.

Xbox: Great console too, like it because of it's variety of games, the thing i don't like is the online. It's not free, althought it is more secure.

PS3: The winner (for me) because of its online experience and it's duration, that's all that matters to me.

You know that every game Xbox has, PS3 has it, too.

That's basically the only reason I play Wii.

Xbox 360 the Best!


Why? Compare. Explain. Don't spam. Gosh.

XBOX 360
I've played a variety of games on xbox and ps3
I don't understand how people can say graphics are much better on the ps3 because there really isn't much difference. The xbox 360 controller fits the hands perfectly. Not to mention the skill of other gamers on the xbox is at much higher standard than ps3 which makes the games more challenging online. People use the arguement that ps3 online is free, well many sources say that that is changing because the security is terrible. *cough* 70000 peoples card details being hacked *cough*. Then there is the Kinect.That's just the future?
As for the Wii?
Its a family console that people just get bored of after one month or so. It is not a gaming console.

I didn't say everything. Majority. Just off by two games, other than that it's pretty equal.

I think it depends. I've played a Playstation controller all my life. I got the mini wireless one, and I got used to that. Then, I got another one that was Xbox styled (the left analog stick was replaced with the arrow keys). I got used to that. I think any controller can fit fine when you get used to it.

well many sources say that that is changing because the security is terrible. *cough* 70000 peoples card details being hacked *cough*.


1. Name the sources. 2. That was one hacking, and you exaggerated. 3. They raised security a whole lot.

Yes, you did say every game. I've quoted it twice, and you can go back and read your original comment. And also:

1. Look on the internet there is alot about it.
2. That's one more hacking than xbox has ever had.

My vote goes for PS3

*Free Online
*Uncharted, Heavy Rain, Metal Gear 4 (one of the reasons I bought it), God of War 3, etc.
*Great Community


The only good thing that 360 has, is Alan Wake

We now have access to Microsoft Cloud services. Yet another advantage of paying for Live. I bought my Xbox when I first played Gears 1, probably one of the most underestimated games on the console. Also, you guys have to wait 20 minutes when you get some games for the patches, whereas Xbox patches literally take 3 seconds.

Other than countless amounts of peoples accounts getting hacked, losing all the microsoft points and information... No clearly your right.

Its because your using HDMI, and theres still a huge difference even after that on some games. But take out your HDMI and play, you'll notice the difference.

Clouds a joke... your paying 50 bucks for a joke.. In fact basically anything from windows is a joke.. And yeah id like to allow myself to say that. Paying for an online service is dumb and goes to show everybody which corporation is in it for the money... They made new software for the xbox and brought it out saying it doesn't give you the RROD. No instead of fixing the problem they give you a screen that pops up saying the xbox is automatically turning off because if left on there will be a fatal error. And that you should wait to turn it on for a couple of hours.. They still haven't fixed anything, just microsofts way of avoiding another problem. I dont want xbox users to switch over, because most of them are annoying 12 year olds anyways.. . So just stay with whichever system you like..

But seriously if your only counterpoint with the ps3 is the fact that it got hacked, or the fact that it doesnt have games... Well like i said previously xbox accounts are so insecure that multiple accounts get hacked on a regular basis.. As for the game issue, the only good games on xbox that ps3 doesnt have is Gears of war, and halo..

And they get hacked. It is possible for Xbox Live account to get hacked. Just like it's possible for PSN accounts to get hacked, Facebook, Twitter, Armor Games, etc.
