Post: PS3 or Xbox?
09-05-2010, 07:49 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So my PS3 has been on YLOD for about 3 weeks now, and I'm trying to decide if I should buy a new PS3, or get an Xbox 360. So I'm asking the NGU community on their opinions.

Some information first that makes this choice hard:

I already have a large amount of PS3 games, plus an account with stats for a lot of games online with the PS3, but the majority of my friends have an Xbox, so I can't play online with them on the PS3.

So I don't know what to do, if I buy an Xbox I will have to pay for online play, and for all new games, but I will get to play with my friends, plus get features like cross-game chat, the better party system Xbox has, and voice-messages. I don't know if the Xbox features, plus playing with my friends, is worth all the extra money that it would cost to get an Xbox.

It now works like a charm. Plus i managed to save my backwards compatibility Happy Just remember that the ps3 move is going to kick the schnitt out of the xbox kinect!


Meh, even I don't believe that last statement, and I'm not a console person. xD I think they're both just gonna be meh when they first come out. As time progresses, though, the technology will most likely improve and video games will probably be 50% motion-sensed.

stick with ps3, as its more secure and hard to hack, like 50%of xbox users are tryhards and use aimbots and jtag to hack and cheat, where as ps3 only about 4% or maybe less know how to hack but it will all be patched soon anyway, so u maybe not have cross game chat, but atleast you will be in fair games and not cheaters

Netflix is pretty much built into the Playstation Store.... We get our fun games on the store too along with psone classics and that.
We don't have crossgame chat, which is probably the only thing the Xbox has over the PS3, Halo is shit so please don't bring that in, who cares if you have millions of 10 year olds on your console, if your ever bored go look through the awards for Uncharted 2 :mudkip:

We don't have crossgame chat, which is probably the only thing the Xbox has over the PS3 (Not really, I'm just trying to fanboy.), Halo is THE shit so please bring that in, who cares if you have millions of 10 year olds on your console (Just like PS3), if your ever bored go look outside for once.


Fixed. :y: Don't really like Xbox, btw.

Does it wipe my ass for me? Didn't think so.

And I hope you know that 360 controllers are chargeable, too...
Blu-Ray isn't anything special... Xbox isn't that loud to begin with, etc.

Once again, I don't like consoles. I just hate fanboys. Awesome face

You talkin to me?
The best thing about PS3 is the free online playing.
Xbox has got more hacked lobbies so if you like that you should get Xbox. Also more OpTic fanboys on Xbox.:carling:

Don't like the Xbox. Getchyofactstraightnigga.

And you Ps3 fanboys are bitchy little dimwits who actually know nothing about hardware (notice I'm saying you fanboys, not you Ps3 players), cry about every little thing Microsoft does, and don't realize that you're one of those people. You know, the kind at that party, no one knows who invited you, no one wants you there, but they're too polite to say anything?

You assholes just want to make yourselves feel like your purchase was justified, although you're truly unhappy. Same goes with you Xbox fanboys out there.

We don't want you.

Blu-Ray = slightly faster loading times. Big whoop. Same quality and shit, what's the difference?

This I agree with. I mean, some of those fanboys are actually decent players, but there's no reason to put OpTiC or EpTiC or whatever in your name... >_<
