Question

please

Answer 1

This is my cut and paste answer. The reason for that is because a tech info is a tech info, you can't beat it (sources below).

PS3 will win the console war, no doubt. Xbox 360 and Wii are so weak from technological point of view, that in couple of years they won't be capable of dealing with serious graphics. GTA IV, for instance, isn't even announced for Wii - this toy won't be able to cope with the game's requirements. Xbox 360 is getting GTA IV, however, the game is going to be released on several DVDs - Xbox 360 owners will have to interrupt gaming process and switch discs (Rockstar complained about this issue). Only PS3 will have it on single BD-DVD.

Let's compare PS3 and XBOX 360:

1). A third of XBOX 360 (33%) are malfunctioning right from the start. PS3 return rate is only around 0.2%. Despite some people say, that new 360 has no breakdown issues - just visit Xbox section of Yahoo answers and see for yourself an amount of complaints.
2). PS3 has 8 (7+1) kernels in Cell processor, Xbox 360 -only 3.
3). 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 layer DVD-9 (8.5GB). It's possible to get HD-DVD (max. - 30GB) for 360, but it'll cost you around 180$, in this case Xbox is going to be MUCH more expensive, than PS3.
4). Calculations per sec - PS3 - 51-billion-dot-product-operati... per second
Xbox 360 - 33.6-billion-dot-product-opera... per second
5). PS3 has full media support - USBs, built-in 4 slots card reader (except 20GB and 40GB versions), ability to use printer and so on.
Xbox 360 has USBs and only 2 memory slots.
6). PS3 supports up to 7 Bluetooth Controllers
Xbox 360 - up to 4 Controllers
7). PS3 - wi-fi included (except 20 gb version)
Xbox 360 - wi-fi will cost you around 100 $
8). Graphics are stronger in PS3, due to RSX chip, that was developed by Nvidia exclusively for PS3. RSX runs on 550 Mhz. It's difficult to compare their graphics chips, because 360 has a video chip with totally different structure and operating memory is divided differently in both consoles. However, PS3 exclusives look better than 360's exclusives.
9). PS3 uses technology from AGEIA company. It does to physics of the game same thing GPU (videocard processor) does to graphics. This thing is on sale for PC(special card). The price is around 350$. There is no such thing in 360.
10). Xbox 360 is widely known for so-called "red ring of death" problem - it gets overheated easily. My PS3 was running for more than 15 hours non-stop with no problems. Sometimes Xbox 360 becomes so overheated, that thermopaste on CPU melts, drips on motherboard and successfully shortcircuits it. That's why in some countries people call Xbox 360 "Coffin 360".
11). Besides all of this, I've seen disassembled Xbox 360 - regular PC architecture - Billy Gates is an uninventive nerd (as usual).
When I saw disassembled PS3 - it was a surprise - smart architecture, good cooling (don't buy external PS3 coolers - they make everything worse - original system is good), etc.
12). In 2008 PS3 will get more than 300 games, including Metal Gear Solid 4, The Agent and other great exclusives. Here is the good link to the future PS3 releases. http://ps3.ign.com/index/release.html......
13). PS3 online is free, Xbox 360 - you have to pay.
14). There were reports, that 360 scratches discs. No reports on that in PS3.
15). The funniest thing, that right now there are no games for PS3, that show full potential of the console. Biggest games weigh only 25 GB (Xbox 360 will need more than 3 discs even for those).
16). On PS3 you can install other OS, such as Linux Yellow Dog, Ubuntu and others. Sony officially lets you do it. There is no such thing in 360.
17). PS3 HDD can be replaced easily with any 2.5" SATA 5400 RPM HDD (used in laptops). 250 GB will cost you around 170$. In 360 you have to buy exclusive HDD, where 20GB will cost you 100$.
18).Sony expects PS3 to stay on the market for, at least, 7-10 years. Also Sony reduces price now. There is a cheaper 40GB version of PS3.
19).Sony constantly upgrades PS3 software (free updates for OS) - you get new functions and improvements.
20). PS3 controller (sixaxis) has a motion control - you move controller - game responds. Wii has it, Xbox 360 - doesn't. PS3 is getting rumble controller (Dualshock 3) in 1st quarter 2008, Japan already has it. On www.ebay.com I saw those controllers on sale 50$ and up (unofficial import)
21).On PS3 you can help sick people by running Folding Home project. Wii and Xbox 360 didn't even think about it.
22).New 40GB is 399$ or 399 euro (depends on the region) - it has no backwards compatibility with PS2 games, has 2 USBs instead of 4, no built-in card reader, but it's the same PS3, strong, reliable, less noisy, different cooling system. The price is friendly.

I didn't mention Wii, because it's so weak, no point to talk about it. Leave it for kindergarten and casual games.

Answer 2

Watch Blu-Ray Movies In 1080p Via HDMI, Recharge Your Controllers ( Saves Money And More Environmentally Friendly ), Browse Internet Wirelessly, Stream Music, Pictures And Videos From Your PC Wirelessly, You Can Play Without Having The Thought Of A 33% Failure Rate Like The 360 ( PS3 Has 0.02% ) , Change The Hard Drive With Any Drive You Wish Rather Than Microsofts Own, Create Slideshows with the memory stick reader, Attatch External Harddrives, Printers, Cameras etc...

Answer 3

between 360 and ps3 i would say xbox 360 elite because they will never get the red ring of death with its advanced cooling system compared to other 360s. 360 has better online and better games coming out soon ps3 is okay but they say soon ps3 is coming out with better games but like 3 good ones big deal and in a month or two on the 360 you will be able to watch free movies with xbox live and plus all the good games 360 has now. i would say definitely 360 elite with xbox live. but dont get it from best buy.

Answer 4

Surf the internet (watch youtube videos on the big screen ) and full length online movies, check email, answer yahoo questions like I am now using the ps3.

Out of the box without purchase of anything else you can watch HD (blueray) movies.(xbox 360 needs the purchase of $179 hddvd player to play hd movies)

You can have up 7 bluetooth wireless controllers for 7 people to play one game on the one ps3 (xbox you need to link 2 360s together to get more than 4 players) .

Out of the box the ps3 recharges your controllers (360 you have to buy a $20 recharger for controllers)

Out of the box the ps3 is WIFI capable (360 you have to buy the wifi addon for $100)

THe ps3 reads sd, memory stick, and compact flash cards straight from the camera.

It plays many file format for music and video, it even allows you to create playlist and shuffle your tunes.

Ps3 allows you to take any brand AT internal harddrive and upgrade you internal harddrive if you want to 250gig for less than $150. (360 you have to buy microsoft brand for inflated prices, $100 for 20 gig and $180 for 120gig)

Ps3 games are on blueray disc and can hold up to 50gigs so ps3 games are longer and worth the 60 bucks. THe 360 games are on 8gig dvds and to fit the hd graphics files the games are short and can be beat in an afternoon. Halo 3 takes 3.5 hours to beat and see the ending Wow ... that's worth the hype.

Ps3 has HAZE, uncharted drakes fortune, warhawk, metal gear solid 4, ...Microsoft 360 lost Bungie who created and produces the halo series.

Well the list is longer but not enough time

Oh and you can install a second operating system on it and run both the ps3 as it was menat to be or run a computer os and take advantage of it's computing power.

Answer 5

Well play blueray discs for one

Use a SD Card which is a easier way to transfer files from your PC to PS3 if you have a media reader on your PC like me

The discs just slide in while the 360 has a fragile disc tray

use bluetooth devices to interact with the PS3

Answer 6

Answer 7
