but im sry, the graphics just arent even xbox quality half the time).


That's because a lot of the games on PC are generations older than anything you can get on a new generation console. A proper gaming PC can throw out double the frame rate a PS3 or Xbox 360 can produce. It's all in how much money you're willing to spend.

You just sound like a bias regular Xbox 360 <3-er

PC Wins them all, if between the 2, PS3, not as good games, but free online internet and can play Blu-Ray DvD's

Overall opinion: PC Is best and I really do want them to make the best games for PC's

Blu Ray

Better Exclusives

Free online

Free internet

No "rings of death" or whatever that crap is

Yeah, I'd say it's worth $300.

a ps3 costs like 1k each just to make it. y do they sell it so cheap then? because the company makes their money from the games. im pretty sure it costs 1 cent to burn the info onto the disk and like 9 cents to make the cover and all that. so you are basically paying 500000 times more money then it actually is. however, the ps3 is still worth 300 bucks coz ps3 membership is free and u can do it in 5 minutes. ps3 quality is better, sound is better( when i watch tv the volume is on 50/100 and when playing ps3 its on 15/100 and ts the same volume) free membership, ps store is free demos and themes and u can download free things, and u can download full games from the ps store for a lower price then from the store.

i just got the ps3 for last christmas and i already love it more than anything. it is definately worth 300 bucks because of all of the reasons above.

I have a Xbox360 elite and its really fun. It also has good graphics and there is more people on Xbox live than the PlayStation network.

X-box is microsoft product: Hackers, viruses, crashes.
Do you need any other motivations?

I can understand crashes, but viruses and hackers and more likely on the PS3 where it is easier to hack, and less regulated. People tend to get banned from Xbox Live quite frequently for hacking, and I have never heard of any viruses.

Ps3 is made by Microsoft


Something tells me your a troll possibly, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt and just tell you that the PS3 was actually created by Sony.


I currently have both a PS3 and a 360 Elite, and while I have only played two games on the PS3, I am still waiting to play one that is worth buying a PS3(btw I rented Uncharted 2, and to me it didn't deserve the praise it got, as the gameplay felt like a cheap combo of Assassins Creed(the original and Army of Two, and was not even as fun as either) I am hoping when I rent MAG that it will be pretty fun, but am not getting my hopes up. The only game I really want for my PS3 at this point is Heavy Rain(after already owning LittleBigPlanet now) but in comparison to all the exclusives on the Xbox 360, it just doesn't seem like its as good...

I prefer the xbox360, but the PS3 is almost good the same. The only unique thing that has the PS3 is that it can read Blu-Ray discs, but I don't find this important.

I have watched almost only Blu-Ray movies since i got my PS3, and watching DVD movies now is like look through fog.

Anyway the biggest difference is the data capacity:

DVD : 4.5GB Dual Layer : 9GB

Blu-Ray : 25GB Dual Layer 50GB

New Blu-Ray discs developed by Sony have even more capacity:

New Blu-Ray : 33.5GB Dual Layer : 67GB

These new Blu-Ray discs will work on all Blu-Ray players with just a little firmware update.

And one more thing.

The 360 uses Dual Layer DVDs (9GB) for games.

The PS3 uses Single Layer and Dual Layer Blu-Ray discs for games (25-50GB)for games.

And new PS3 games will use the new Blu-Ray Discs (33.5-67GB)
for fitting in more gameplay, uncompressed audio, longer games, better textures etc.

That is why Blu-Ray is better then DVD.

There is no doubt that the quality of a Blu-Ray film is better than the one of a DVD, but I just don't use consoles to watch movies. I have a Blu-ray player, so for me it's useless and this makes me prefer the xbox.
