Post by: realg123 on March 01, 2008, 03:05:08 PM
Alright fellas, which system would you buy ps3, or xbox360 and why? Which one has better hardware specs, and which in the future do you believe would be able to emulate dreamcast.

I would say, get which ever one your friends have. I love my ps3, and It is to me the best console but all my friends have 360 so I went out and bought a 360 and now play mostly 360.

get ps3!
360 freaking sucks!
you have to pay for online, you get the ring of death...you have to pay for nearly everything online and you have to pay for worthless accessories.

nice so ps3 online gaming is free? Also how are the blu ray movies compared to hd dvd?

blu-ray won the format war. yes, ps3 online gaming is free. you have to pay for somethings like downloadable games and some game add-ons, but those are expected. but just to start up a game and play online is free.

If it wasnt for everyone I know having a 360 and not a ps3 I would be playing my ps3 rather then my 360 because I only play games when one of my friends are playing.

I don't really have a preference on either system at the moment. I'm not to impressed with the game selection on the 360. I have probably 5 games I could say I really enjoy on it and they're getting few and far between. I haven't picked up a PS3 yet but I've played it and even though I prefer the 360's controller, I haven't found too much difference in game play but the PS3 seems to have more of a selection. Plus the ability to install Linux seems nice.

I've heard about 60 and 80 gig bundles having overheat problems. I'm not much into Blu-ray or HD-DVD when it was out. I more or less just want something to play games on. I've been using old school xboxes more than anything else.

60 and 80 dont overheat, they get very hot but never overheat, I have mine in a very confined place and it get very hot and the fan gets pretty noisy sometimes but it has never died on me and it is a launch day 60gb version.
