Xbox 360 V.S. PS3

Which system is superior to you and why?

Edwin320 · 09-18-2012, 08:27 PM

I have both. The XBox requires gold membership to watch Netflix. PS3 doesn't. I'm watching Breaking Bad on my PS3 as I write this.

Having both I prefer the PS3, though Xbox is also a great system for social aspects.
I just can't see myself going for either of them in a poll since I use them pretty much equally.

I need to buy both and then I will decide

GoldCartridgeGamer · 09-18-2012, 09:45 PM

Neither is superior to other for different reasons. They each do different things better than the other. I own both as well.

I have always liked the PS systems because most of them were backwards compatible. Also, the controllers don't use batteries. My wifes son has an xbox and we are forever buying batteries for the controller. The rechargible batteries, I have, he says don't last long. Maybe it is the games he plays, but you have to buy "minutes" to play online.

Xbox 360 is also backwards compatible.... and it must be the games he plays because ive never heard of buying "minutes" to play xbox live. I do agree with batteries not lasting long though... the rechargable ones after a year generally only last a couple days before they need to be charged.

I only have xbox 360, not PS3. I do see PS3 as a "superior" system to the 360, but i like the xbox controllers better, online play better, and games better (such as halo games) So i prefer xbox.

I have both. I like both of them. However, I'm on my 3rd Xbox 360 due to the RROD and I have had ZERO issues with my PS3. My PS3 is an original 60 GB with backwards compatibility for PS & PS2 games and a 620 GB HDD that I installed!

Sounds like you got it all. What games you own?

Steve Dallas · 09-19-2012, 11:32 AM

No option for PC

I did sell my 360 2-3 years ago, and still have my PS3. However, I might use the PS3 once every few months (mostly Madden Football, which sucks this year).

Playing Borderlands 2 now on the PC though...as well as Diablo 3.

PC > Consoles

Overall, I probably have ~120 games or so between the xbox 360 and PS3 alone. More than that for the other systems I have including PC.

But I have the standards to any gaming collection: Call of Duty, Oblivion, Skyrim, Halo, Forza, Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 2-4, Dead Space 1-2, GTA 4, Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect 1-3, Dragon Age 1 & 2. I have a whole crap load and I can't remember them all. LOL.
