PS3 or XBOX

Xbox all the way, it makes financial sence, i have two, 1 that was removed from live this week :P and one i play on live with MW2 all the way

ps3s are the way forth, xboxs are rubbish, ring of death comes on just after warranty runs out. PS3 will go for years, they play PS2 games, have blueray and generally are miles better. Get at PS3, forget the xbox.

Thats my tuppence, but out of all the people i know who have a xbox they wish they got a ps3, and all the people who got a ps3 still like them, so whats that say.

PLAYSTATION 3 is the way to go, sorry all you x box lovers.

Not all of them, I think it was only the early 60gb ones.

As for game exclusivity (is that a word?), there are some games unique to both consoles. Gears of war is the only Xbox game I wish was on PS3, other than that I'm not fussed.

It's a completely personal thing, forget all the stories about the xbox RROding, thoseare the old xboxes, the new ones are fine and just for the PS3 fans, your console also is getting quite a high failure rate with the yellow light of death. Xbox is becoming more and more entertainment based as well as game based with things like the sky player.

But in the end it boils down to games and online, the xbox has the better online play no doubt about it but yes you do have to pay but you can geta year off ebay for about £25, xbox has a wider range of titles and IMHO better games.

The playstation does have the blueray player making it slightly more attractive as you can watch films on it but at the end of the day, it's a gaming console, you should be playing games, they do have online but no where near to the level of xbox.

So the best way to decide is;

If you like single player and sports games, buy a PS3
If you like online and FPS's then buy an xbox

yeah, almost all games are available on both. Halo is not, but the latest one is the worst, so thats no loss. COD series is on both consoles.

Just think, there was 6 years between the PS2 and PS3 being released, if you own a console for that length of time and game online then you're looking at over £150 of online subscription to XBOX live.

I've gamed on both consoles and don't find that there is any significant difference between them. The only real difference is the spec and price, if you want higher spec, PS3, if you want cheap buy XBOX. Everything else people can argue each way forever.
