[QUOTE="cmbeke, post: 2764190, member: 921035"] here are my pros and cons based on facts. i recommend the PS3 over Xbox 360 PROS for PS3 * Internet broswer * Blu-ray won the format war * ALL games are on Blu-ray discs (that’s a whopping 50 Gigs per disc!), allowing great games to be born! * VERY low failure rate * Great connectivity between the PS3, the PSP, and the computer * VERY quiet fan * Small, light controllers * Sixaxis wireless controller for certain games Cons: * Few great games, but plenty of great games coming soon * Not as many people on the PSN compared to XBL * Demos, add-ons, and such are on the PSN after the XBL Marketplace * Some (very few) PS3s have disc drive problems that don’t read the discs properly or will not accept the discs at all Now for the Xbox 360 Pros: * XBL has many people and a great connection * You can own noobs online while listening to your favorite music! * Beats PS3 in overall sales due to the fact that it was released over a year before the PS3 * Great games * Demos, add-ons, and such are on the XBL Marketplace before the PS3 * Rumble in controllers Cons: * WAY too many callbacks and problems (RRoD, destroying of discs, etc.) * If you bought everything to as closely match the features of the PS3 it’d cost almost the price of the system itself (HD DVD drive, wireless hook-up, XBL payments) — these things add up! * HD DVD lost the format war * All games are on regular DVD discs (a measly 5 Gigs of memory), which greatly limits games * WAY too high of a failure rate — about 17%, in fact * Large, heavy, roaring jet engine fans! I myself am a PlayStation owner and lover, and was trying not to be biased. I gave facts and only facts. [/QUOTE]
