Which console do you recomend
I have the wii and love it, but want to go multiconsole. I want either the 360 or PS3. Which should I get? Which has...
Better games? Better hardware? Better reliablity? Better Backwards compatiblity? I would have laughed at the idea of a PS3 last year. But now, I find myself not caring much about Halo 3, and wanting Metal Gear Solid 4. My Signature |

Re: Which console do you recomend
I think 360, mostly because of the money.
Pros of 360 1. Costs a lot less money, more money for games 2. Better games, like Halo and Gears of War, Viva Pinata, and other stuff Cons of 360 1. Red ring of death, though I no nobody it has happened too 2. Not very good downloadable content 3. You must pay for the online Then there's what you like better: HD or Blue Ray. |

Re: Which console do you recomend
I love my 360. Much higher game selection, which will in turn give you more good games. Hardware has been compared and compared - 360 seems to come out on top most of the time. Reliability and backward compatibilty - I'd rather not speak on the subjects I'm not educated on.
If I'm not mistaken, though, MGS4 hasn't been COMPLETELY ruled out for the 360... |

Re: Which console do you recomend
The only reason I can think of buying a PS3 for is that Sony said they're going for the 10-year run with it, unlike 360 which will be obsolete within the next 4-5 years.

I doubt that Sony will do that. Sure they say it, but I really really doubt it will actually happen.

Re: Which console do you recomend
I think the PS3 is great (exept for the cost) but the graphics are great!

Re: Which console do you recomend
As I said before, the main difference is in gaming catalogue... the 360's is better, without a doubt. However, the PS3 (or at least, the backwards compatable one) can play PS2 games. The PS2 has the best library since the SNES, in my opinion, and as I never got it, I'm going for a PS3. Plus, Blu-Ray!

Some other games I found out for 360 are: Bully Scholorship (which is also for wii), all games made by Rare (they tend to be good), and Microsoft Flight Simulator games. |

Re: Which console do you recomend
The game library is the most important thing for me.
I went with the PS3, mainly because of FFXIII and MGS4. I also have a decent number of PS2 games that I still periodicaly play. The 360 just didn't have enough unique games I wanted to play. You may also want to keep in mind that HD is dying out. Be nice to Other People; They outnumber you 6.6 billion to one. |

Re: Which console do you recomend
Without repeating all the same reasons everyone else did, I will say 360 all the way.
I had a PS3 and got rid of it. I have a Wii for my Mario and all his wonderful games fix, and then I have my Xbox360 for everything else. -TMM To be the man, you have to beat the man! |

Anyway, I agree that for now has a slightly better library of games. However, with the PS3 you are getting full backwards compatibility with the PS2, plus you're getting a Blu-Ray player very cheap. And just to add to that, HD-DVD has basically lost the format war. It won't be around much more. In short, I'd say PS3. |

Re: Which console do you recomend
I have all 3, and if you buy a PS3 right now at Wal-Mart they also give you a $100 gift card, this deal will work on the MGS set as well, so for $500 you get a PS3 80gb, PS2/1 backwards compatible, MGS, and a $100 gift card (Basically 2 games)
Now, that is a dang good buy and evens the playing field for price point. PS3 has Blu-Ray and fantastic upconversion and plays almost anything I put in it, but the 360 game library easily exceeds the PS3's. So it tends to be determined solely by your interest. I think either is a great buy right now. |
