PlayStation3 or Xbox 360

Which one should I buy?
Please specify the model also because everyday Microsoft is coming up with something new, the latest one is 4GB onboard model. Most people like XBOX more, what do you think XBOX or PS3?

ps3 for me, especially for fifa.

I have xbox and its too awesome. Easy to Modify xbox for playing Pirated Games Games. Not much Expensive.

PS3 is best for Graphics but don't know if it is able to Modify or not.

I recommend you xbox.

[Fawad2010]

Depends on what your requirements are. If you have a big hdtv, and you may play blueray in future, definitely a ps3.

^ that was my reason to pick ps3 out of the two

[The Godfather]

i have a ps3 they are both the same really but the blue ray and Gran turismo were reasons why i picked a ps3.

PS3.

Online gaming is free. That was enough to win me over.

Plus, the graphics are better.

360 by miles. The best console I've owned, and I've been buying since the NES. The only PS3 exclusive I felt that I really missed out on was Metal Gear Solid 4, and you can watch the storyline and cutscenes (which make up most of the game) on youtube.

PS3 for me :

Blu ray player + the graphic is very good + free online game..try before you buy and looks very nice on my black tv cabinet nice design (80g version).

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is another great game which Xbox360 users miss out.

PS3 for me. blue ray, free online game play and better graphics(though it's arguable)..

[Stewie]

depends on what you want to use it for. as a media player PS3 is much better.. but xbox360 has the wmc compatibility plus the news ones have wifi n capability .. ps3 has wifig which is older and slower if you want to stream stuff to it.
gaming wise xbox360 has a bigger library.

i have a ps3 though and i prefer it.

You'll be missing out on GT5

At OP: Depends. For me, PS3 is better because of superior exclusives (imo), blueray and free online.

But if you're low on money, 360 is good too, as it has some pretty good games (Haloe, Gears among others), and that new project thing which is supposed to release very soon.

[haroonrasheed320]

this discussion has confused me even more

[kkmix]

Xbox 360 with Kinect, sick.

Well brother then you missed out on SOME game. MGS4 was the only reason I bought the ps3 for even though I had the Xbox 360. To the op I have both consoles and really its very had to pick which one is better but I think that ps3 after starting off slowly is gaining momentum and last year there was a slew of ps3 exclusives, most of them turned out be great games like Heavy Rain, God Of War 3, Uncharted etc. So IMO the ps3 atm has a better exclusives line-up.

It depends if you have alot of freinds, i prefer xbox because i have alot of friends online and we can all talk together even if we are on different games. Makes it more fun wether your playing a one-player or a multiplayer.

[cricfan967]

Well mate, here is what I've learned from my experience.
Bought an Xbox because my friends had it. Played online with them. Since it was modded, I got banned. It became fun no more as I hate playing single player so I sold it and bought a PS3. More user friendly, no hidden charges (LIVE, WIFI ADAPTER, COOLING fan).
Also, online stats show you are more than 50% likely to encounter the Red Rings Of Death which will screw you over. It will probably require you to buy a new Xbox as the Microsoft Warranty doesn't fully cover it.

Xbox - Hidden charges, Not as HD as PS3, Live is strict, Not as user friendly

PS3 - No hidden fees, live is completely free, user friendly

But I am not going to completely favor the PS3.
Take my advice, ask your friends and see which friends you want to play with the most.
Get THAT console, because for me playing with my friends is the main part.

You can't beat a jtagged xbox 360 console!

[Zu456]

I have an xbox360 and a ps3 so i can give you an honest unbiased support having played each console A LOT. For online and pure gameplay i must say the xbox is far superior. The reason Ps3 are more expensive because they are all rouind maedia consoles (blue ray dvd player). For gaming the xbox is better, But really playing online is the best bit about getting a ps3 or xbnox so id recommend buying the console that the majority o your friends have because its a lot better playing against your friends. I bought the new black 250 gb XBox

[haroonrasheed320]

ohhh well I don't have many gamer friends so I am not that much interested in Online play, to be honest I will play some pirated stuff too because it is available very easily in UAE. What do you think now?

[haroonrasheed320]

can someone answer my question?

[Kray_jackson7]

Xbox 360- if you want modded, i dont think you can with PS3

[cricfan967]

PS3 can be modded now ^
XBOX 360 will get you banned from live, but if you don't play online get 360.
