PS3 or Xbox 360?

Question

okay ive seen alot of videos on youtube of ps3 and 360 comparison and honestly i think the ps3 is ALOT better but there were a few things i was not sure about (not price since there both pretty much the same now) 1. xbox live charges 2. Ring of death and 5% failure rate 3. no built in wifi ps3 1. no OVERLORD 2. less games 3. sixaxis (reason being because say im in the process of lying down and the controller moves or falls something could happen that made me lose the game 4. 360 has good online gaming that i know havent tried ps3

Answer 1

I just want to get one thing straight first, the Xbox 360's failure rate is way higher than 5%. The Xbox 360's failure rate is around 33%. The PS3's failure rate is less than 1%.

The PS3 is a whole lot better, it has more built in features, more advanced technology, and it has the most potential. People keep saying that the PS3 doesn't have games, but that's not true because the PS3 does have good games out. People just think that if there isn't a PS3 game that's hyped like Halo 3, then it's no good. That's not true.

As far as the Sixaxis goes, you can turn the Sixaxis controls on and off for some games. Also the majority of Sixaxis controls are used for specific parts of the game not for the entire game.

I'll give you an example of how the Sixaxis controls are used in just certain parts of the game. In Resistance Fall of Man if one of the little aliens in the game jumps on you and starts biting at your face, you shake the controller up and down and your character will shake it off of you.

And as far as games goes, 2008 will be the PS3's year for it's biggest exclusives. Basically in 2006-2007 most of the PS3's exclusive games were new franchises, but Sony's biggest games like: Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Online, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, The Getaway 3, Socom Confrontation, Final Fantasy XIII, Haze, and a whole lot more.

And if you've seen the PS3 owners Youtube videos I'm pretty sure that you've heard that 2008 will be the PS3's year, and they aren't joking. 2008 will be the PS3's year and you will want to have a PS3 in 2008, trust me.

Answer 2

Xbox 360 is the best, I don't care what people say. Yes the Xbox 360 does have a high failure rate, but the Xbox 360s that are recently sold are more improved. So the failure rate will go down. The only PS3 game worth getting is Metal Gear Solid 4, but the rest of the games are worthless.

Answer 3

360 -Xbox live charges to play games online
Ps3 -online gaming is free
360- Ring of death 33%+ failure rate
Ps3 0.02% failure rate (look at decimal)
360- no built in wifi
ps3- has built in wifi

ps3 has 200 games out now including Uncharted drakes fortune, ratchet and clank ftod, resistance, motostorm, lair, heavenly sword, etc.....and will have 300 more games by march 08 including 19 more exclusives...haze, metal gear solid, killzone 2, little big planet, and more

360 currently has 375 games out now and 20% are arcade games. Coming exclusives in 08 for 360 that are notable halo wars and too human. Out now exclusives gears, halo3, bioshock, mass effect.

You can disable the sixaxis and really it needs to be almost intentionally turned. except in motostorm.

Ps3 online is alot of fun and games like resistance offer more gaming choices.

Youtude doesn't even show the reality of the difference. the game physics and graphics on most exclusive will blow you away on the ps3 and when multiplatform producer take the time the grapphics and physics are extremely better on ps3 like in Call of duty 4 and Dirt. EA is lazy so the graphics on both systems suck with there games.

Answer 4

Whoever says the PS3 or XBOX 360 are bad, is trying to kid themselves. They are one-sided idiots, focused only on brands. In truth, both systems are plenty good.

The PS3 looks good, and the Blu ray is an excellent attachment as well. Though, it sucks to have to get Blu ray instead of DVD, especially if you already have a lot of DVDs. Also, it's not that good, unless you have a giant flat screen TV. The PS3 loads information faster, making for slightly better graphics.

The XBOX 360 does suffer from The Ring of Death, but I have not had this happen to me once, and I bought my a few months after it came out. Also, Microsoft has fixed a lot of the problems associated with its launch. What one thing XBOX has going for it, that PS3, nor Wii can say is it's large assortment of games. Several are ones such as Gears of War, Bioshock, and of course Halo 3, and the entire Halo series. Along with this, Xbox Live is unbeatable. If you want to play the world's best games, Xbox Live makes them many, many times better.

So, if you want something to look at, get the PS3. If you want something to look at, and have great games, get the Xbox 360.

Answer 5

Well, on the controller, you can turn the sensitivity on and off. So if you are playing a shooter game you can turn off that feature. I have both systems and I have to say, the PS3 is amazing. With PS Home coming out and over 300 titles coming out between now and April, that is very impressive. I am not a fanboy, I love both of my systems but whatever your choice is they are both GREAT phones!

Hope I helped!
