Will PS3 fade out or, or win out over 360

Aright I finally got all of my referrals needed to get either a Playstation 3, or a 360 elite. Now, what should I go with?

Will the PS3 deliver the high quality games on blue ray like it says in the future or will they just be the same terrible games that we have now. Excluding Resistance Fall of Man and Motorstorm.

Will the 360 keep delivering the good quality games that they have now and is it really worth it to buy a system just to play halo. Dont get me wrong Halo is an awesome game but will the games be able to compete with the PS3 in the future.

Help me here. PS3 or 360

Dude the ps3 will not out do the 360....the wii is even owning it in sales

Def go with the 360

360. you will get GTA4 and a lot of previous PS2 exclusives coming over to it. Plus you have a great online network now. Maybe Home will be better later, but right now ill take xbox live at $50 a year.

wait on the ps3 the price will probably drop by christmas or next spring I bet when the good games really hit it.

Get a 360. )

360 FTW!

It depends on how you will use it. I don't buy that many games, care more about movies, and like being able to just hook up one of my external drives to play music and hi-def videos. Therefore, I bought a PS3. I will probably pick up a 360 in the next couple of months for GHII (the controller won't work for PS3) and Gears of War. I also prefer the Playstation controller over the 360 so I will buy GTA4 on PS3. Each system has its own attributes so buy whichever based on what you will be using it for.

imho, the ps3 will come into its own over the next year. their online community and interactive virtual world will be very interesting. there is more that can be done with games. it is a very cheap blue ray player and hopefully blue ray will be around for a while.

IMHO, the xbox currently rocks. I do not personally see a reason to get an elite over a platinum. gears of war, call of duty 2, oblivion all are games i would get right now if i was just getting a system. other games that look great are guitar hero II and crackdown looks cool to me. halo 3 will be out in september, mass effect in the fall if it ever gets released will be awesome.

I had long conversations with myself about whether or not I should get a ps3 with the money from freepay. I ended up doing it. I figure I will use the blue ray and will enjoy the web on my tv. plus the games are a bonus )

Get the PS3 if you wanna wait for the good games )

Get the Xbox360 if you wanna play online and have a blast

Get a WII if you have a baby

With that said go with the 360 8)

Xbox360 + HD DVD FTW

Crackdown, Gears of War, Oblivion all are great games. I know oblivion is on the PS3 right now but does it compare in graphics quality to 360. I tell you what after all of this I think I will go with the 360. I will be very angry if blue ray games become awesome though. I will prob just get a PS3 for the blue ray player. I do LOVE the hi def movies. Hopefully i can get them both for free on the trainn sites. Thanks for all the input.

i didnt name all the ps3 titles coming out in 07 but bioshock might be a port and Assassins Creed what games are exclusive to the 360 besides other than the 2 right ones you said?

Definately the 360, I've had mine since launch and Love it, I personally can't justify $5-600 for a "Games" console that has hardly any worthwhile games. just my 2 cents )

XBOX 360 if you like multiplayer even remotely.

You have a point but i mean look what you get with the 360 and look what you get on the PS3 that is standard, but hey the only good game last year for the 360 was prey and that didnt make a big impact PS3 is were xbox was last year.

get a ps3. Its got a brighter future ahead of it than the 360

does it seem that M$ is confused on what to give us

!. claim HDMI is not needed
2.made the core
3.made the elite
4.we may look at a blueray add-on in the future then they retract it
5.halo demo man the whored that out lol (good business though cant hate)(even though i didnt buy crack down lol)

you are a xbox fanboy and i have a 360 elite so im for both but prefer the ps3.I will give props on M$ firmware updates and the gui of the xbox is nice but there game support is lacking system cant live on ports forever when there is a ps3 price drop it will be over for M$ and its old technology dvd (1080p) LMAO think not.

-graw sucks
-rainbow six is on both
-elder scrolls is on both (not into this MMPO stuf)

PS3.
fact is, 90% of 3rd party games are going to come out on both systems.
PS3 has free online play (it may not have video chat and other crap, but it works AOK for me)

depends on the exclusives you want really. i'll take Resistance over Halo any day. and I love Ratchet and Clank. God Of War 3 should rock, so long a they fire Corey Barlog's ass. i'm crossing my fingers for a new Twisted Metal. Heavenly Sword looks OK. Metal Gear should be awesome (i loved 1 and 3, but not 2, so i dunno).
i doubt i'll like the new FF, but i'm hoping Dragon Quest makes a return after their DS nonsense.

if you care about HD movies at all, HD-DVD is just dead.

oh, and yeah, Wii is clobbering ps3 in sales. but it's clobbering 360 too. last i heard PS2 was still outselling the 360.

Hey anyone get banned from live i haven't but all the forums are blowing up this shit is going to backfire on M$. these guys don't know how to make a patch for shit lolololololololol!!!!!!!

I guess the mass banning was bound to happen sooner or later. Fortunately, my 360 died AGAIN so I haven't connected or been banned AFAIK.

I feel sorry for the many people with unmodded 360s who got banned.

As for which one to get, both have their pros and cons (and fanboys) so just consider what you want out of it and take your pick. I think if I had the choice I'd go for the PS3.

dont get me wrong i like the updates with the 360 and the spring makes it easy to get around the whole achievements and gamer card is good too.

After all of this I think I am getting the PS3. I LOVE the blu ray movies and the games are ok now. I am just hoping that the games coming up will get better. There does seem to be a few good ones. Thanks for all the input.

go to gametrailers.com and check out sony's gamers day release.

Im checking it out now ill tell ya what I think. Thanks for the site.

Home looks interesting.
Lair i think will disappoint.
i mentioned Heavenly Sword and i think it'll be pretty good. hard to say atm.
as for non-exclusives, i'm looking forward to Mercs 3 and of course GTA.

I agree with you gnznroses except for lair. I think it will be a great game. Hopefully I will have my PS3 in time to play it. GTA will be awesome though as usual. Heavenly sword might be good and im not decided on Home yet.

i really wish GTA was an exclusive after seeing devs complain about both systems the 360 is restraining it the most with its dvd formate and having to worry about the people with cores. even though ps3 has lack of ram it has the most space.

ps3 has just as much ram, unless you count the fact that the ps3 os uses more ram than 360's "blade" os.
bluray can be a lil slower than dvd, but you can always cache data on the harddrive. can't count on a harddrive with 360. plus there's the matter of squeezing it onto 1 dvd, which they recently said in an interview they haven't yet figured out...

I think the PS3 will really pick up steam soon.
-Rumored price drop - the current 60 GB model will drop to $500, and a new 120 GB will replace it - supposed to occur in Octoberish.
-Blu Ray is owning HD DVD. Just in terms of games, Blu Ray offers almost double the amount of space as HD DVD, so it should be able to offer alot more content.
-MS has been kinda finicky over prices and what they wanna include, been really hypocritical(bash Sony for including HDMI, huge hard drives, built in BR and other 'useless features' and then come out with the Elite for close to the price of the PS3).
-Sony's past performance should be enough to vouch for it again
-MS has shown it doesn't support its system once its dead, no more XBox games are being produced(besides ports), where as the PS2 is still alive and kicking - goes to show you something there.
-The jump start out of the gate tactic has never worked

I mean honestly, the 360 has been out for a year and a half, of course its gonna have a step up on the PS3. But how many quality titles, besides Gears, have come out that are 360 exclusive? Everyone bashes Sony for losing exclusives, but I can't think of any big name 360 exclusives coming out besides Halo 3.

360 is better then PS3 right now, but I think the PS3 will win out eventually.

This is coming from someone who owns both, so I consider myself

yeah, you're right MS will simply bash ps3 for everything it does. i'm sure dony does a good deal of ms-bashing as well, but it was funny when peter moore, when asked about folding@home for 360, he said he didn't see where ps3 was doing any good for f@h.
this is when about 30,000 ps3s is making up 60% of f@h's computing power (with, i dunno, 500,000+ participating cpus)
