(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys i see a lot of questions on NGU and Lots of other forum websites asking which is the ultimate console i see people say " XBOX " & Then The PS3 fanboys Comment saying PS3 i see some saying " PS3 " And XBOX Fanboys comment so i am here today to do some research on which actually is the best Console Smile

I DO HAVE BOTH CONSOLES "THIS IS A MIXTURE OF FACTS AND OPINIONS DONT TROLL"
Round OneControllers

Although i do love the lightness of the PS3 controller and the way the analogues are set out to sort of fit my thumbs i do prefer the more heavier controller of the XBOX .
Although the controller is heavier i think it just has a more sturdy feel in the hand it just seems to fit the hand more than the PS3 controller does .
At first i thought the positioning of the analogues on the XBOX controller would be a little bit awkward but it pulled through and now has very little thumb ache .Yes .
The triggers on the PS3 controllers just dont quite feel how they should as i find them slipping every once in a while but it wasnt a major annoyance .
The triggers on the XBOX on the other hand are a lot more easy to use and the angle on the triggers are different so NO SLIPPING :y:

Round One = XBOX :y:

XBOX 1 - 0 PS3

Round 2 Online network stability

Yes ive heard it all before "YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR XBOX LIVE!" The reason you need to pay for live is because there are a wide variety of features including create your own avatar and lots of other stuff which we will discuss next round.
Another reason you pay for XBOX is because it is more stable online i have really started to notice this between the two whilst playing black ops on XBOX your straight into a game whilst on PS3 it takes a few seconds longer the reason for this is that there are more players on XBOX than PS3 [Known Fact] When in game on call of duty i notice that PS3 seems to lag out a little more often and have "Connection interupted" quite a lot of the time . Enough of black ops . As many of us know PSN went down for about 5 weeks in april due to it being unstable Hackers managed to break the network and retrieve a lot of our valuable data including credit card details i lost trust in SONY at that point onwards When the network finally came back up all they gave us was a Crappy "Welcome Back Package"
That had nothing i wanted .
Winner XBOX LIVE

Round FourWhich Console Looks Better ?

Well i really hated the old xbox 360 look the white one i thought it looked sort of plain and the white looked really tacky and it came with that HUGE power brick which if i wanted to take to someones house i would have to take the huge brick aswell . Then the PS3 came out with a built in power so now external power supply which i loved it was a little heavier but i wasnt too bothered i loved the black finish to it with the playstation sign going across in silver i really thought the touch sensitive buttons were cool they were always really sensitive so i never found myself repeatedly hitting them to turn the console on or to open the disk drive .
Then the PS3 bought a slim console out i hated it i thought it looked terrible the colour was just bad it had a rough finish instead of a nice shiny one i did and another thing they got rid of the touch sensitive buttons :O They halved the USB ports to 2 instead of my 60Gb Which has 4 .
Then a XBOX slim came out you could tell it was slimmer but nothing special it just didnt have that massive hard drive on top of the console it was built in this time with a rather large 250GB and a stupid 4GB i mean seriously why would you want a 4GB it would store NOTHING my XBOX took up a few GB before i had even started.
I loved the touch buttons that they bought to the xbox and i loved the fans all around so it wouldnt overheat as often and guess what no RROD Happy as there is no way of this happening because THEY DIDNT PUT RED LEDS IN Yes but it still came with the huge brick it was just a little smaller :mad:

Winner PS3 (PHAT)

XBOX 3-3 PS3

Round SixGraphics
There has been a lot of arguement which graphics are better PS3 or XBOX well to be honest there is no difference and if there is a different its just your TV settings they are basically the same The reason People think PS3 is better is because the games are so large when all they do with XBOX games is compress them so there really is no difference

Winner DRAW

XBOX 4-4 PS3

So there we have it i have gone over the main aspects of both consoles and we have come to a tie so they are both equal to eachother in many ways there is a lot i havent covered but the thread would be way to large if i did cover them

Thanks for reading

They're very even consoles, it's just down to preference.

To anyone new to gaming however, I'd recommend a high-end PC. Many more possibilities.

So much more to do on a PC. It unlocks of great mod features for games.
The games are cheaper then console games (upon release) and it is easy to direct download games from steam.
The keyboard may seem hard to play with but after a while you will learn to love it.
If you are anti-keyboard then most new games are compatible with gaming controls.
If the game isn't compatible then you can use a program like You must login or register to view this content. to bind keyboard actions to buttons on your gaming controller.
A disadvantage is that if you don't have the best internet connection, you may find playing games online quite hard.

I'd agree however I'd say that a console is easier to get working and possibly a little cheaper. I think a PC is more for the advanced gamer due to the wide range of hardware and the amount you can customise it.
