ps3, had the best specs. So i'm going for the ps3 buts the xbox360 wasn't that bad either. Still i i'm w8ing for ps3
Lol that was a fast reply :P just added a poll
I stick to the PC. Consoles are waste of money I think. You can't upgrade, can't do ANYHING else than to play and mostly the games are so expensive!
I prefer the PC...
xbox 360. i've seen one run. there isn't a single game that's coming out for ps3 that appeals to me. plus lots of mmo's are arriving for xbox 360. the reason i prefer consoles is because you can't upgrade em so i have to spend less in the long run.
Xbox360 is worthless, basicly a wireless xbox if you will. Ps3 and revolution will take microsoft out of buisness
Hardly unlikely Zero. . . but tbh I think the Xbox 360 is more applealing in price etc.
-Mattio
ps3,seems the best one by far
Ps3 will always be the pick.
ps3 won't be that expensive look at this articleQuote:

How much will it cost?
Typically the last two generations of the PlayStation have been priced at around $300 at launch. Both have continuously decreased in price year on year into their life, its quite likely PS3 will do the same. It's not known how much it will cost but around $300 is probably a fair guess, as this is the maximum price most gamers would be willing to pay. There are some unexpected extra features, such as the 2 HDMI outputs and 3 Gigabit RJ45 LAN connections, that will likely drive the price tag up a fair amount!

How powerful will the PS3 be?
On paper, the PS3 is 2x more powerful than the Xbox 360 and 15x more powerful than the Nintendo Revolution. It has a processing capacity of 2.18 TFLOPS, which is put into context when you realise the FASTEST computers in existence can only do 36 Terraflops. It is said to be 35x more powerful than the PlayStation 2 is.
nice thread
def ps3, the specs are amazing and I cannot believe ps3's specs until i actually test iut my self, so def ps3 :D xbox360 and nintendo gone all commercial! ps3 keeping up the spirit still!
I think I'll get a 360 when they're released and then begin saving up for a PS3 :). God bless loans lol.

TBH a PS3 is for a lazy gamer. an XBOX is for the mature gamer. feel free to differ but i know im right.
Wrong wrong wrong,the ps3 will get a online service very comparable to Microsoft’s Xbox Live service.And also killzone 2 will come out on it :P i think you can go hours hours playing on that. Anyway here il show you the official ps3 specs and try to compare them with the xbox360 (muhaha).Quote:

I intend to get all 3, because im a true gamer. I dont play favorites with consoles. If a console makes a game i like, i get the console. I dont care if the console is named "IBLOWMEN" and made by the Kraft cheese company. As long as it has a good game, ill get it. Aint met a console yet that had NO games i liked. *points to xbox, ps2, gamecube, dc, ps, 2 pc's, N64, nes, snes, sega genesis, sega cd, gb, gbc,gba all sitting in my room* Any systems i dont have are only missing cause i havent managed to get my hands on it yet. I just love video games, period.
tbh xbox doesnt let u play online unless youre gold... if ur just silver (aka dont pay) yoy lose lots of xbox live features such as online play
tbh i thought killzone played and looked shite. not a single game that came out for ps2 interested me. and playstation don't even know how to set up a online gaming service. look at their current one. i pre-ordered a ps2 and read the manual they reckoned every house in the UK would have broadband by 2003, which shows they need a reallity check. in this generation whats gonna count is the software. and tbh there isn't a single developer working for ps that i wan't to hear about.
I don't see why you guys bother to post specs, if you buy a console system for its specs thats just geeky.
I'm getting xbox360, there are a bunch of crazy games that I love that are coming out, its pretty cheap for everything you're getting, and XBL owns.
I hate the sony fans who think that ps3 is gonna take microsoft out of business. How stupid can you be? PS3 is coming out like a year after xbox360, which gives xbox much more of an advantage as they will be able to sell it during xmas holidays. Plus, I'm pretty sure most good games that ps3 will have, 360 will have too. But ps3 won't have quake4, and I don't think it will have the new morrowwind, and I don't think it will have most of the other good games that 360 will.
Also, have you guys seen the PS3 controller? It looks like something a whore from my school would masterbate with.
Oh for fucks sake, please don't exaggerate your posts. "Not a single game that came ouf for PS2 interested me", I call BULLSHIT, you probably don't even know 1/100th of the games that came out for PS2.Quote:

i smell a flame war about to come.. flames = warns (just so u know)
btw u dont have to argue or anything.. thet the polls speak for themselves :D
Games will be priced the same for both of em...and the prices will be high... so i guess its just a matter of which one you liked better to begin with, in other words if you like halo, you're gonna get xbox 360, if you don't you'll get ps3.
Or you'll just get both since you're a rich bastard.

did you guys ever seen the xbox360 specs?? man i laught when i saw them! I think Bill Gates should stick to his windows cause he can't do shit on game consoles. And also man the psp! is matching with the xbox360! i mean a handhelded console with a xbox360 (lol). So i think xbox360 hasn't got any chanse with the ps3.
trust me xbox360 will have the most powerfull graphics out i seen screen shots my friend shown me a screen shot and i said wtf where was that taken out of and he says its not a picture its outa morrowind oblivion
