lol and yet you support Sony after the DRE errors with the PS2 and having to turn the PS1 upside down to get it to read the discs?

Seems that a lot of people forget about the problems that Sony systems were known for in previous gens.

Also, both the 360 and PS3 have a good future in games which was shown at E3.

P.S. how do you know he even had a PS2 or PS1??? maybe he jumped over from Nintendo or Microsoft... Also, both the 360 and PS3 have a good future in games which was shown at E3.

lol I always have the system that doesn't have these problems...lol I had and Xbox and Gamecube last gen and this gen have a PS3...

Red Ring of death was the final blow for me as well. No regrets moving over to ps3 for over a year now (same console NO problems) and didn't have to worry about a-la-carte accessories!

My 360 lasted over a year before it got RROD, but MS fixed it free of charge. My PS3 lasted 3 months -the disc eject stopped working. Both are great systems, but I use my xbox 360 99% of the time..I prefer the controller and online setup much more. I'll turn on the PS3 again when Uncharted 2 comes out, which looks absolutely phenomenal.

My honest opinion!


The Xbox 360 cost more! After you pay for Online each year $50 x lets say 5 years=$250

$250 + $199.99,$299.99,and $399.99= $450,$550,$650

Add in batteries or recharge pack,wifi adapter if you want it(Can't go back after using PS3) and you have a expensive system with No Blue Ray or HD DVD

PS3 is the best bang for the buck EASILY!!!

Yes most multi player games do run SLIGHTLY BETTER actually most the human eye probably can't see.

They both have basically the same titles but PS3 takes over with it's great exclusives.

I don't think so, this is not the ideal cut Sony is thinking of. In my guess, they're probably cut the price right before the release of Uncharted 2. Even though Madden is still a big contender, i don't think it can move consoles like it could of/did for the ps2 era.

I have seen multiple people say that the PS3 doesn't have great exclusives....well you have InFamous, MLB 09, MAG(256 player online) The Uncharted series, the GOW series, MGS4, Killzone 2, Buzz TV is very fun, LittleBigPlanet, The Motorstorm series is pretty popular, Grand Turismo 5, Heavenly sword was supposed to be pretty good(haven't played) The Ratchet&Clank series, Resistasnce 2, Resistance: fall of man, Socom: confronation(hugely underated due to early game bugs fixed by patches) Now tell me again that they don't have good exclusives...it's not about quanity it is about quality with exclusive games and these games sure do have that...
