Default PS3 or XBOX 360

which do you guys think is the better console?

i would say about a year ago the 360 was the way to go. but now that the HD movies are only going to come out on Blu-Ray the PS3 has jumped in front of the 360 as the frontrunner.

i will admit that the 360 has better games. scratch that more selections of games to choose from but the gap should be closing within the next year.

plus with the addition of HOME in a few months the PS3 gaming community will change forever.

im a loyal playstation guy so i vote for the PS3. cant wait for NCAA and Madden plus the revamped Head Coach. GTA 4 should keep me occupied until then. also glad that Saints Row 2 will be available for the PS3.

I have a 360 but I want a PS3 as well. All systems have their pros and cons. I also have a Wii.

yes i agree all have their pros and cons because if they didnt then there wouldnt be a gaming battle between the giants.

i had a 360 back before i got my PS3 but it always keep breaking and then i got the dreadful 3 rings of death and was without a gaming console for the entire summer. that sucked. but i ended up trading it in with about 5 games and an extra controller for a brand new PS3 and 3 games. they called it an even trade at gamecrazy i was like wow okay and left fast before they could figure out what they had done.

Okay, nothing was left out. Wii isn't the same. XBox 360 and PS3 are both similar systems in graphics and all that. Wii is a totally different catagory. Anyway, I've never played PS3 but I like the sound of it. I've played XBox 360 and it was pretty good but the analog sticks are smaller and differently shaped than on my PS2 so that threw me off. Actually that was a lie. I have played PS3. It was pretty much the same in graphics but the controller was more familiar. I played Call of Duty 4 of 360 and Resistance on PS3, by the way. I don't have either console right now, though.

I have both, but I prefer the 360 for games that are out on both, and you can't beat the PS3 for the Blu-ray player. The price is great for the system, considering the PS3 is profile 2.0, whereas the Blu-ray standalone player that will be profile 2.0 is a Panasonic (I believe) and costs $799.99.
