PS3 or Xbox 360?

I need some friendly banter back and forth for which system to get. Right now I'm leaning PS3, because I've had a 360 before and sold it when I needed money. I've got a good job now and I can afford to get a system again. The Blu-Ray player in the PS3 makes it really appealing, but I really a fan of the Xbox 360 games, like Halo and Call of Duty. But most games come on both...

Which should I go for?

It depends on what you will be doing on it. I have an xbox and love it. I also play online a few hours a week so its worth it to me to have a better online platform. I would also consider what your friends have. Ex. If they are all on P3 get that, if they are on xbox get that. Its way more fun to play with friends than alone.

P3 has the blueray player but its pretty much an obsolete technology already. Online streaming is already in HD so pretty much watching DVD/Blueray is going the way of beta max.

Blue ray still has some years left in it's tank, I will say however that If it's available I more then likely lean towards a digital copy of a hd movie since it's usually about 10 dollars cheaper. Online streaming and HD digital downloads will eventually blaze past Blueray just the way Blue ray will/has DVD.

Like everyone said above it's what your going to do with, if you play online a lot or what your friends have and so forth that would decided which one is the best bet for yourself.

Couple friends have 360, couple have PS3. It's really a draw in that department. Either way, when we go over to each others houses, being on the "other" system isn't an excuse for losing, so it doesn't matter in that regard...haha! I can see what you're saying about Blu-Ray, but still, I don't really watch any full newish release movies online in HD.

There's things I like about both consoles, and price is kind of a wash. The only thing motivating me right now is my friend has a broken 360 he hasn't gotten around to fixing, and he said if I end up getting a 360, he'll lend me all his games until he gets it fixed, and he's got some good ones. FIFA South Africa, Madden '10, Gears of War 2, to name a few.

Just my opinion, but if you only get one I'd get a 360. I just have too many friends on Live and enjoy the service. If you don't plan on paying for Gold, or don't have many/any friends on XBox get a PS3. It has better exclusives and a Blu Ray player.

Both are great though. Don't choose. I think they compliment each other nicely.

If you have the money get both, it's the only true way to enjoy the best games. If you can only afford one I prefer the PS3 for its exclusives. *hears jimbo coming in as I type this comment*.....

What is better about Xbox Live's online play? Not saying I disagree, I just honestly don't know. I have a PS3 and I play online just fine. Is Xbox Live more internety?

If you have friends that play online a lot, the 360 is better simply because of cross game party chat. You can set up a party when playing a game and you will only hear the people in your party. The best use from me has been for BC2 where you can actually have 2 squads in the same party, essentially making an 8 man squd. Man, we bulldozed some people like that. You can also chat with friends who are playing different games.

Other than that, there isn't a whole lot of difference. Live might cost money but it comes out to about 3.50 a month. Peanuts.

More people on xbox live...if you're into multiplayer gaming.

If you're into buying Blu-Ray movies...then I'd suggest the PS3.

I think everything else is pretty equal. Both can stream, although the xbox will connect to windows workstations/servers a bit easier and can tap into windows media servers if you have one setup.

    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.  
    • Should definitely look to trade him in the offseason. Some team will fork over draft picks thinking they can turn his career around, especially considering what happened to Mayfield and Darnold after they left here. I think a lot of people will be surprised at how high of a pick he would fetch too. There's a dozen guys you could bring in to match (or exceed) Bryce's production for 1/10th of what his 5th year option is going to cost. Let some other dumb team pay that (and ship us draft picks for the privilege). Dump Dalton too while you're at it, start the QB room over from scratch.
