Xbox 360 or PS3?

Question

Really want to but a new game consol which one do you think I should go with. Love playing the Madden and I heard the game moves faster on a 360 but my favorite all time game is the Metal Gear solid series and I think they are only exclusive to Playstation

which one should I go with help me out

Answer 1

why do u bother to ask in the ps section if ur gonna ask in a place not called playstation or xbox because if u post in xbox everyone is gonna say xbox 360 is so much better halo 3 blah blah all my system has is shooters and sucks nuts

now if u post in playstation everyone is gonna its better[ cuz it is] it has blu ray and its so powerful and the graphics rule. but there are very few games and the exclusives for xbox 360 outnumber ps3 3 to 1 so again post it somewhere else


xbox 360 sucks

ppl only bought it for halo 3

which also sucks

Answer 2

i'll keep it short and only adress what you commented on specifically.

Madden is still good, but it runs at 30 frames per second on the PS3 this year and at 60 frames per second on the 360. EA is not what anyone would call the most talented team of developers, but they recieved so much bad press from that issue that now ALL of their games will be runnin at 60 frames per second on the PS3, even the ones previously announced to run at 30 frames per second. This is only a 1-year issue, so don't get too worried about that.

Yes, the metal Gear Solid Series is exclusive to Playstation, but as Sony doesn't pay for exclusivity like Microsoft does, so you will hear 360 fanboy rumors about MGS4 coming to the 360. It's not going to happen, Hideo Kojima has confirmed this, internet fanboys just love to spread ridiculous rumors.

For many reasons, I would reccoment the PS3, but as I previously stated I will not go into detail here, but I do suspect that many others will.

Hope this Helps!

TREK - IT ISN'T POLITE TO STEAL MY ANSWERS!

Let's compare PS3 and XBOX 360:

Almost a third of XBOX 360 are malfunctioning right from the start. PS3 return rate is only around 0.2%.
Let's compare them

PS3 has 7+1 kernels in Cell processor, Xbox 360 -only 3x2
PS3 uses advanced tech called Blu-Ray, one disc can store up to 54 gb (in the future - up to 200 gb), Xbox 360 - regular dual DVD (9.5 gb).
Calculations per sec - PS3 - 51-billion-dot-product-operati... per second
Xbox 360 - 33.6-billion-dot-product-opera... per second
PS3 has full media support - USBs, built-in card reader (except 20 gb version), ability to use printer and so on.
Xbox 360 has USBs and only 2 memory slots.
PS3 supports up to 7 Bluetooth Controllers
Xbox 360 - up to 4 Controllers
PS3 - wi-fi included (except 20 gb version)
Xbox 360 - wi-fi will cost you around 100 $

Graphics are stronger in PS3, due to RSX chip, that was developed by Nvidia exclusively for PS3. To estimate its power (roughly) - take 8600 Ultra nvidia graphics card, multiply it by 2 - get a result, still PS3 stronger, because 8600 Ultra runs on 400 Mhz and RSX runs on 550 Mhz.

PS3 has a chip from AGEIA company. It does to physics of the game same thing GPU (videocard processor) does to graphics. This card is on sale for PC. The price is around 350$.

Xbox 360 is widely known for so-called "red ring of death" problem - it gets overheated easily. My PS3 was running for more than 8 hours non-stop with no problems. Sometimes Xbox 360 becomes so overheated, that thermopaste on CPU melts, drips on motherboard and successfully shortcircuits it.

Besides all of this, I've seen disassembled Xbox 360 - regular PC architecture - Billy Gates is an uninventive nerd (as usual).
When I saw disassembled PS3 - it was a surprise - smart architecture, good cooling (don't buy external PS3 coolers - they make everything worse - original system is good), etc.

In 2008 we'll get more than 300 games, including Metal Gear Solid 4 and other great exclusives. Here is the great link to the future PS3 releases. http://ps3.ign.com/index/release.html......

PS3 online world will be free, Xbox 360 - you have to pay.

In some countries people call Xbox 360 "Coffin 360".

The funniest thing, that right now there are no games for PS3, that show full potential of the console.

Sony expects PS3 to stay on the market for, at least, 7-10 years.

I didn't mention Wii, because it's so weak, no point to talk about it.
