Same here.

Come on guys. We all know the 360 is a superior gaming machine. My PS3 serves pure media duty.

But in all seriousness I will have to get GT5 when it comes out.

:icon18:EPIC FAIL:icon18:

^lol i agree 100%, anyone who thinks a 360 is better gaming machine can go piss up a rope lol. especially when it gets the red ring of death that like 90 percent get. That and they rip you off for everything like live, have to buy a adapter so you can use wireless, have to buy battery packs for the controllers if you want em to be rechargeable etc. etc.

anyway sorry to get off topic, anyone here play call of duty 4 much?

Not to mention pay EVERY MONTH for xbox live lol. I used to play COD4...untill i found SOCOM :tup:

+1

My PS3 collects dust, unless I am watching a Bluray movie. I can't stand the PS3.

I just hate how the PS3 pricetag has to STILL be at $400. If it's so much better, why can't the price drop to sell more = cover the cost in difference by more units sold.

Drop the price and you've got one sold.

Why can't you stand the PS3?

Because up until a little while ago they were still losing money on each unit they made so making the profit up in volume wouldn't work. Although I haven't heard much about that lately so I'm not sure if that's still the case. It was kinda like a Bugatti effect.

Wow... I don't know if I can list all of the issues but here goes.

1. Took me over an hour to set it up when I first got it(2 months ago)
- New software update required. ( I have to go search in the menus to figure out how to download it) Unlike Xbox where it's automatic
2. I have to freak'n sync my mic to the ps3(unlike xbox's wireless mic) Automatic
3. I have to go into the settings and set up the mic to be used in game, private chat ect....xobx automatic. Seeing a trend.
4. The mics suck ***. I can't hear anybody it's choppy and full of static. Bluethooth Sucks!
5. The software and firmware is the same as the PSP( are you kidding me) what is that 4-5 year old technology
6. Loading in the games are so slow. Example you walk around a corner and you freeze and the loading takes forever and then you start playing agian.
7. No Pary chat like xbox

Bottom Line is if your internet connection is down, I would play PS3.
Internet Live up I would play 360

hmm not too sure about a bunch of those because I've never tried a lot of online playing. I'm usually a single player kinda guy.

:tup:...I will be looking for you. SF4 = :happydance:

-Hunter

That's my whole thing with the PS3. I think it is a great single player machine. No doubt about that. But I play a lot of LIVE. That is where it's downfall is. So hence why I don't play it alot.

I play COD4, and try to play every night.

add me: Salami-Vice

i respect the ps3, its nice that the online is free but man they can't even compete with xbox live. i guess you get what you pay for...

Dont take this personal bruh lol, but im about to tee off on you.
Heres 7 reasons why your wrong:
1. PS3 has a 890:1 ratio of faulty equipment, the 360 has a 65:1 of faulty equipment. Can you say RED RING. So bash the PS3, ill laugh while I play my games and ur waiting for microsoft to send yours back.
2. Why was 3 reasons about the mic? I got a PS3 the first day, bought a Plantronics mic...and havnt touched the setting since, all u do is turn on the mic, and your set.
3. PS3 has 8 processors, 360 has 2. So the PS3 has LITERALLY 4x the computer power a 360 has.
3.5. Playstation Network is FREE, as is a brilliant application called HOME. (google it)
4. The constant updates, which ive never had one last for more than 40 minutes insures up to date software and additions to the system.
5. Same software as the PSP? you mean the XMB (cross media bar) is that what your refering to? Ever heard of dont fix whats not broken? Its 10x easier to navigate and control then the 360's main screen controls.
5.5. How much money have you spent on batteries for your controller?
6. Games being "slow"? you must not have a good connection.
6.5. There is a party chat, there is text chat, so im not sure what you were refering to on that #7 one.
7. Tell me how good HDdvd's are doing...they stoped making them right? Blueray. There you go.

Like i said before this is nothing personal, its not a yelling match or a **** measuring contest, just a well established debate. :tiphat:

I feel kittens getting ready to come out

No I am not going to take it personal. I own both systems, so I do have an advantage to talk about it with a little intelligence(from experience)
1. I agree with your stats, but I haven't sent one of my Xbox's in yet? I have had them for 4 years. ( I own 2 xbox's)
2. No because I bought the Sony Mic and had to sync it to the PS3 and then set up the talk settings.
3.I understand it's free, but it SUCKS(game play and talk wise) You can't even talk to people without having static or choppy converstations.
4.Updates are listed up top, but you have to search thorugh the menus to find where to update the firmware. Which 360 does automatically.
5. Just dissapointed that's all. It is confusing too( could be because I have played it 3 times)
5.5 I bought the rechargeable station. 39 bucks. over 3 years.....doesn't seem like it's a fighting factor.
6. I have a 10 meg connection and it's hardwired, so no that 's not the issue.
6.5 Maybe I don't know how to do it then.
7. Never bought HD, becasue I knew the platform would die. So not a factor.

I just feel if I want to play LIVE it will be with my 360, from my experience of both conseols. Like I said before I thnk the PS3 is a great machine, just not play live. Other than that it's nice. I am not here to fight about it or argue I am stating what my experience is with owning both systems. Not trying to start a flame war.

My turn:

1. I've had 3 RRoDs and still prefer my 360.

2. I agree... not sure what his issue was with his mic. I've had no issues using Bluetooth on my PS3, and it does work much better than the 360's mic.

3. Every game I've played looks and plays better on the 360. Period. The only games that play better on PS3 are PS3 exclusives.

3.5. LIVE is SO worth the cost of admission over the free PSN. SO much better.

3.5.5. Why the **** do I have to spend the time to D/L something from PSN, then have to spend MORE time to install it (games) just to use it? Once I D/L something from LIVE it's ready to go.

3.5.5.5. It's EXTREMELY hard to find what I'm looking for on PSN. I absolutely hate the layout of the store.

4. The 360's updates take no more than a minute or 2. PS3 pisses me off with it's insanely long updates.

5. 360's dashboard straight up pwns the **** out of the XMB. Everything is integrated so well. I still have trouble finding stuff on the XMB.

5.5. We have rechargable battery packs. What happens when your controller can't hold a charge anymore? You gotta get a new one. We don't. Also, we get a charge cable that's actually long enough to continue playing our game without having to stand half a foot from the TV (this is barring the longer cables you can buy seperately).

6. I get more lag on my PS3 than my Xbox.

6.5. It's easier to use on the 360.

7. HD DVD was never the 360's selling point like Blu Ray is for the PS3. The 360 has been and will always be marketed as a gaming console FIRST.

The way i look at it, since i also own both systems, a comparison between the two, i give 95% of it to the playstation.

I am not trying to start a battle between the two consoles, but someone asked why I don't play my PS3 and just gave my honest experiences.

And since xbox might get scrubed, you just might have to deal with the PS3 :tup:

I highly doubt the Xbox is getting scrubbed.

EDIT:

Anyways, do you have Killzone? Looking for some people to play with. I hate playing with randoms.

Google that shiznit! Theres already been 3 board meeting by microsoft on scrubbing the console.

Why are they considering doing that? Isn't it selling second best only to the Wii? There were lots of rumors about the PS3 never coming out as well but that of course never happened.

404: Info not found.

Project Natal? Heard of that? Its kinda funny for m$oft to cancel a console when they have a breakthrough technology dropping in the near future.

I dont even call my ps3 by that name, its a bluray player that also plays games. I own 2 games for it (mgs4 and Resistance 2) and have no interest in anything coming in the future.

Didnt Kojima Studios just sign a 2 year contract for the xbox to produce new Metal Gear games?? Odd that they would do that if the console was getting scrubbed...:shakes head:
