Xbox Live is reason enough alone.  Add in Kinect, Windows Media Center, Zune (with the pass), and the gameplay (just to point out where else the PS3 falls short.)  Undisputed.

Throw in Xbox Live on my WP7 and you have the icing on a very sweet cake.

No graphical eye candy will ever match that first enthralling experience of your first console game, and being so small at the time, and playing on a bigscreen, the pong bars seemed half as big as me.    From my youthful perspective, it’d be like playing on an IMAX screen now.

I dunno… I’d use this statement as an argument for the PS3.   If I could keep only 1 device, the PS3 would serve all those functions, and the Xbox wouldn’t.    I don’t actually own an xbox though, while I do own a PS3, so maybe I just haven’t caught the magic yet.   I might be biased to the one I’m used to.  I’m not really fussed about the blue-ray player though… so that would technically be an argument in favor of Xbox.  I’d add though, that I prefer the controller on the Ps3, and I also prefer not having to pay to play online.   Those are factors as well.

The multi-plat games are always superior on the 360, the 360 controller in sooo much better, and fits the hand perfectly, and the ps3 menu system is stuck in the back. Not to mention the the PSN is Xbox Live’s bitch. No Gears of War of the PS3 either. Need I say more.

The one and only + point the PS3 has over the 360 which I will conceed to, is that it has the Ratchet and Clank series, and a couple of decent JRPG’s the the 360 doesn’t have

As for Xbox360, It sucks. The menus are dorky, the games I like are available on the PS3 and better on the PS3. The online thing I never used and except once and it was junk. I don’t really have any problem with the controllers but oh well, PS3 still #1.

The Nintendo Wii, A total kids kind of system and alot of the games are childish so even though I never owned 1, I will never buy it. 

No seriously though, I still prefer the Dual Shock to the Xbox controller.  Personal preference I guess.  I don’t understand not having the analog sticks next to each other.  Whatever.  That being said, I think the Xbox has a far superior online gaming experience.  Cross game chat, etc.  Kinect, no thanks.  I’d take PS Move and it’s use in FPS games any day (no, not that stupid gun thing, just the move controller).  Wii got it right with the Conduit and it’s sequel, but the Wii isnt my thing overall. I think it’s close but I’ll keep my PS3.

For me it’s XBOX and PC. Whenever I use my ps3, the network always fails, I always get disconnected from COD games, I don’t like any of the exclusives except drakes, oh and the controller feels like a brick after using xbox, doesn’t seem natural at all. 
Kinect is actually very cool, if you have ever used it. It is proven as it was the most sold gadget in the world. Move is great but I would not use it, or the kinect. 

My PS3 has broken 3 times, my xbox has broken once. My friends PS3′s have also died more than once. You’re obvisously a hater so I can’t sway your view, I converted to XBOX after I bought PS3 (having only had ps2 beforehand). The xbox for me is the better GAMING machine. I use ps3 for bluray and media streaming thats it. 

Oh and MS haven’t had they DB hacked releasing their users data. 

“What GAMING PLATFORM could I not do without ?”
I have Wii, PS3 and 360, but the answer can only be PC.

Not only that, but the recent trend of ‘upgrading’ PS2 and PSP games as well as PSN availability of PSX classics help buff out the PS3 library with more gaming that will never touch the 360′s world.

As far as the motion-control battle, I’ll take High Velocity Bowling over Wii Bowling anyday.  The finer control makes for a more lifelike bowling experience.  Same with Wii Boxing.  Why just settle for flicking the controller when you can follow through on a full punch with The Fight: Lights Out?  Kinect has a high point in its Dance games, but nothing much else.  The most critically lauded Kinect game at E3 was Child of Eden…  which is just about to release on the PS3 with Move support.

To me, you made a perfect case for the PS3, but at the end, your decision to give the title to the 360 was that it’s ‘different’.  I honestly can’t agree. 

Consoles are crap machines.

I do agree that Netflix should be accessible without the premium service subscription but the 360 just got another leg up over Sony now that it’s getting full on television services from Verizon and Comcast as well as HBO.

Oh Allen Heffley, it clearly states in the article that this is an opinion… not a fact, chill out lol

Saints Row 3

I mean Mass Effect and Saints Row WERE Xbox exclusives. Now WE get FREE content you either can’t have or must pay for. Even though we have FREE online and Xbox gamers pay $300 every 5 years for online play.

35 million xbox live users, not all gold so figure at least 25 million gold members. $60/year = $1,500,000,000 EVERY YEAR.

Yet they won’t lower their console cost, the yare the only one pay to play, they don’t hold onto your exclusives AND they don’t give you the FREE content we get in multi plat games.

YES I hate xbox and I see no point in supporting their overpriced hardware and services.
