Xbox vs PS
What do I dooo?

So what I'm seeing here is a bunch of fanboys trying to push their opinions onto other people... Like Hajin said, the xbox might do something better than the ps3 and the ps3 might do something better than the 360. Not one system is king, not one system is perfect. We are Gamers, we should embrace all aspects of gaming instead of trying to bash it. I love the Xbox 360 and the PS3... But if I had to pick out of the 2 i would go with the xbox, simply cause the online experience is far better. In simple terms, you get what you pay for, thats how i see it..

I've owned both and they have their fair share of pros and cons:Xbox360
+User Friend Interface
+Awesome Online Experience
+Nice, Hefty Controller
+Decent Backwards Compatibility
-Xbox Live is Expensive ($60/year)
-Some red ring alot (I've never had this issue though with the 4 years of my console)
-Not a good selection of JRPGs (Only one I like is Tales of Vesperia)
PS3
+Free Online Access
+Blue Tooth Friendly
+Dynamic Backgrounds
-Longer Loading Times
-You Have To Install Alot of the Games
-NO Backwards Compatibility (on the 60GB Model)
-The internet browser is REALLY slow (I run a fast connection at home and my games ran fine, the browser just sucks)
Spoiler:
Listen to this guy. (Except the controller, not too fond of them)
I personally use the xbox 360 just for better consistent online play.

And with bisaed post like those, I see why the two of you have horrible rep here lol. You two were pretty much the only ones who posted in such a way while everyone actually gave pretty good consent about both consoles.Just because you like the PS3 that much doesnt mean you can force your opinion onto other folk.
And I lol'ed so hard at you for throwing in Resistance in comparison to Gears of War.
im not forcing my opinion on anybody and where was i comparing resistance fall of man to gears of war? i am comparing ps3 exclusive's to xbox exclusive's. and these opinions are not bias,bias means to lean towards 1 thing because i dont like the other.if i was posting a bias opinion i would say buy this because we have this and they dont. and as in rep i dont give a shit about, i could be a 1 million negative and people would still love me.

ALSO NOTE: please, if you vote, throw in some game suggestions! .... and I realize that this would be a good time for me to remind you that I'm a girl. And I fail at FPS very, VERY hard.
And I play mainly rpgs.
And I don't like turn based combat systems (which mean I would actually have to THINK while beating up the opponent wtf).
BUT if you know of an awesome fps, that HAS EVEN SOME KIND OF A STORYLINE, feel free to mention that too - the humiliating experience of getting constantly beaten up in fps games by guy friends drives me to learn how to play them some day :D
I prefer the 360's library of exclusive games over the PS3's. No, not because of games like Halo Reach or Gears of War, though they are both very good games in their own right. But because of games like Alan Wake (Heavy on the story, very atmospheric), Fable 3 (A straight-forwared RPG. My sister loves the Fable series), Metro 2033 (A VERY story driven, atmospheric, horror FPS based on a book. I heavily recommend.), Mass Effect (ME2 is on PS3, but some people prefer the first for heavier RPG elements.), Left 4 Dead 2 (A team-focused zombie FPS. Also recommend) and Crackdown (A chaotic sandbox game with supersoldier-esque cops.) to name a few. I haven't checked up on any upcoming exclusives for the 360, so pardon me if seems like there isn't much on my list.
Edit: I personally love the 360 controller. It just feel right to me. It may be because I got an original xbox with an S controller after so many years of playing on an N64. See, I've played on a PS3/PS2 and the controller just doesn't feel natural to me, I just find it odd. Idunno, maybe it's just me.

playstaion 3 is your best choice.xbox is only good for games while the ps3 is good for well, everything. from video editing to uploading ,play memories , quirocity , internet brower to home. i also i had the xbox before but then i got ride of it because it fails too much and also pay 60$ a year. i invested more money on the xbox while the ps3 already had it like wifi, built in battery , blu-ray player. its all up to you if you buy a ps3 at least you know you have a fail proof device

i think he means by exclusive's. xbox has halo and gears of war, 2 best selling games on the xbox while the ps3 on the other hand has killzone,uncharted , gran turismo , twisted metal , resistance fall of man ,motor storm ,ratched and clank , god of war , jax and daxter , mlb the show XX , infamous 1 and 2 , mod nation racer's , little big planet , MAG , socom ,and these are the ones that i know of. FUCK thats 2:15 ratioplaystation has been in this game for 16 years while xbox has only 10 or so.sony doesnt need to depend on 3rd party games like microsoft do plain and simple
Not biased huh? I guess some people really DONT pay attention to what they type at all. Anyway, I'm done with you.
I'm gonna agree with GhostInTheMachine's quote. The 360's controller is fine, except for the dpad, it's pretty crappy for fighting games. You really will need either a fightpad or a fight stick. I own a 360 myself and I would prefer it since the online experience is really good. And I've grown pretty fond of it's game library over the years.

PS3 for me.
There is one reason why I dont like Xbox 360. It´s the damn controller. It´s really annoying.

Heh, I had the same thoughts when I was going to buy my console of the new generation: For me I just choose the system that had the most games I'd play and at the time the PS3 only had two games (God of War 3 and Resistance games) that I'd consider playing and the 360 was cheaper. Which, now I am glad I went with the 360 but I've been one of the luckier ones and my friend I compare systems with has been one of the unlucky PS3 owners. Which I find amusing because he games less than I do.

We seriously have to sticky the original console wars thread.
Both consoles are good why not just get both?
