[ALL] Console Fanboys: Convince me to buy your system.

I'm not gonna sell you anything. I am not sure why you wanna start a console war thread. After about 20 responses it is gonna get childish and everyone will stop making points and start calling each other fags and such.
 
u cant go wrong with either system. the game selection on the ps3 is now as robust as the 360.
if you like online, and all the chat features and dont mind paying for it, go with the 360
if you only play offline and want blue ray, go with the ps3

i have both and they each serve their own purpose for me.

ps3 is more of a media center for streaming from my pc or watching blue ray. the only games i play on it are ps3 exclusives. i hate its friends setup and communication and its trophy system

360 is my gaming center. any game i can play on the 360 is played on the 360. Its got streaming abilities of course, but its weak compared to ps3
 
It's simple.
If Blu-Ray/DVD movies interest you, you must get the PS3. It's a solid gaming machine and a brilliant Blu-Ray/DVD player.
If all that matters is gaming, 360.
 
If you don't want to play online, get a PS3, but there's not much reason to buy games if you aren't going online tbh.

Edit- Console Games*
 
If you are looking to play people in Madden, all the MMers are on PS3.





Playstation 3 has Move...buy an Xbox 360.

Perfect, he said he's into the Star Wars games:

But you are right he should get a 360 I hear Kinect is looking awesome

For all the naysayers pointing out that if you want to play online get the 360. Just look at the threads for Madden on PS3 and COD whenever each COD game comes out.

The madden threads are always blowing up, but everytime a new COD drops the PS3 crowd goes wild. The MW2 thread might be the most popular thread in the arcade. When Rainbow Six games were being released, people were going ape over that game on the PS3 as well.

The PS3 doesn't compare in its chat/community capabilities as the 360 does, but online gaming wise its right there. People obsessed with a video game social network should get the 360.

If you want Blu-ray AND kickass gaming online or offline go with the PS3. Also netflix is coming as an app, starting tomorrow to the PS3 and Hulu plus will be accessible on the PS3 soon. If you are a baseball fan, the mlb.tv app is tits, best streaming app I have ever encountered on any console.

360 users dont need to discuss online gaming on a forum b/c we already have xbox live to do that :smug:
 
Its pretty simple.

If you want to play madden or ncaa and use custom rosters go ps3. If you do go online there is a fairly small community here of players that play on the ps3. Although you'll have to put up with their constant rage because you can never finish a game and it lags to no end.

360 is what it is. Fairly solid all around. No custom rosters unless you do your own. Online actually works.

I'm going to go ahead and say fuck both of them. Get a decent PC.

and here is Blade with your first fanboy comment.

who cares about madden and the 10 people on vsn who play it. and any game that is discussed in in the gameroom forum with our people has a self life of about 2 weeks before people stop discussing it. if playing with people from vsn matters to you, then yes, go with the ps3.

but remember that vsn isnt MM

How is it a fanboy comment, my argument was that just because the PS3 doesn't have a social network on par with 360 doesn't make it as horrendous as an online gaming option that 360 fanboys make it out to be. Gameplay wise only there is no difference between the ps3 or 360.

As for the rest of my post, I was simply pointing out the features to BTG. I could give a rat's ass what anyone buys. My post was to display why I have a ps3 and haven't jumped on the 360 or don't see a reason to.

:obama:

Also, you're probably forgetting a game called Halo: Reach. Amazing how you can even try and compare XBL and PSN.

Thanked for Star Wars love.

Personally, I'm leaning toward an eventual PS3 purchase because of the free online and the fact that it seems to be a better do-everything console. That said, 360 has Fable 3 and Mass Effect. :ionno: It's a personal preference option and most of these guys will be better at giving advice than your's truly.
