PS3 Vs. Xbox 360 Your OPINION?

description: Well basically which do you think wil lcome out on top? Although the 360 looks like a great system I reckon the PS3 will pull through most. Each system has it's own ups and downs, 360 beats PS3 in some places and vice versa, the PS3 beats 360 in other places. In my opinion the Playstation 3 is overall better than the 360 and will pull through more.

description: Hardware wise they are pretty similar. I reckon it will be down to what console has the most diverse range of games. And since they have consoles prior to them there will be plenty of games for each. There wont be much difference in performance so the perofmance factor isn't a great issue.. I can't really decide as of yet. *NOTE: I love the specs on them. I may actually just get both consoles in the end :P*

description: Playstation 3. Quote: System memory: PS3 - 256Mb XDR XBOX 360 - 512 MB UMA (Shared with GPU) Video Memory: PS3 - 256Mb XBOX 360 - 512 MB UMA (Shared with CPU) Just a little addition... The PS3's system memory is XDR RAM @ 3.2GHZ (runs at the same speed as the processor), and it's video memory is GDDR3 RAM @ 700MHZ, while the Xbox 360's memory is only GDDR3 RAM @ 700MHZ. The PS3 will support/use Blu-Ray BD-ROMs, each with a capacity of about 50GB (double layered), as far as I've seen, the PS3 is the only one out of the two that will support a next generation media/disk.

description: I would say the PS3. This is because of the little things that the 360 skimp on, like the limited backward compatibility, the HDD (that shouldn't be an option), etc., and the face plates sound like a lame gimmick. And 7 controller "ports" for the PS3? SCHWING! No more buying multi-taps.

description: it's so easy to aim and shoot with a mouse as compared to a console controller, though. I don't think there's any achievement in being good at that, unless you are a 40 year old housewife who just got into games with no prior experience. The playstation series is more popular than the Xbox and has been since the original playstation (when Xbox didn't even exist) and the PS3 seems to boast more than the Xbox 360 here, apart from their system and video memory. I'm sure the console will make up for that though.

No. I plan to play five players by myself using my left hand, right hand, left foot, right foot, and chin. And so what if the new XBOX has 3 CPUs? That doesn't mean it's going to be faster unless EVERY game makes use of multiprocessor technology. And let's face facts; even computer games are having trouble truly making use of multiprocessor technology, and computers have had multiple processors for a while now.

It doesn't technically have 3 processors, it has a single processor, with 3 cores. It having 3 cores in no way tripples it's clock speed, it has 3.2GHZ, not 9.6GHZ. If that was true, then the PS3 would be about 22.4GHZ to 25.6GHZ.

description: Uh, no, it has 7, with the 8th one reserved for redundancy. They're "Synergistic Processing Elements", they're similar to cores in that each one can perform a sperate function/process at a time. To be more accurate, the Xbox 360 has 3 double threaded cores, meaning each one can do 2 things at once, making it 6 processess at once, versus the PS3 which can do 7 processes at once.

They dropped those in favor of the same processors that their biggest rival, Apple uses for their biggest competing computers: Macintoshes. That's a big statement.

Microsoft is on damage control. They're banking on those that lack common sense and who are extremely gullible (Lol, looks like it worked.). What you need to realize is, there is no way for Microsoft to actually know any of the comparisons and graphs in that article, they don't have the PS3 there with them, they can't run tests/comparisons with something they don't have. If Microsoft did have a (very early) PS3 there to test, there'd be bigger issues, like how they'd be sued to hell and back by Sony. Quote: accept the truth Which you still fail to do...

description: It also has a sign labeled "Concept" beside it, so obviously it may not even be the final design. It's the same controller, just with longer grips, the parts of the controller that you're holding onto and reaching your fingers across, etc. are still the same size, as far as comfortability, ergonomics, etc. almost nothing has changed (for the worse). As far as design goes, the PS3 controller in those images looks much better then the fat obese looking Xbox 360 controller. The longer grips could be where the batteries and transmitter/receiver are stored, instead of sticking them in the middle making it fatter like the Xbox 360 controller.

description: PS3 > XBox 360 If full backwards compatibility were all the PS3 had going for it, that ALONE would be reason enough. That means that it will play every single PS and PS2 game ever made, which in turn means that people who buy it won't need all the systems to play all their games. The X360 might play SOME of the old XBox games, meaning that anyone who wants to keep playing their library of XBox games is going to have to hang on to that old piece of crap that calls itself a console. PS users, on the other hand, can sell off their older systems and use the cash from the sale to reduce the price of their new console. Plus, PS3 is releasing next year- that means Sony has more time to work out any kinks and bugs the thing might have. Remember kiddies, more QA testing = good. It is likely to be a higher quality product as a result.

PS3 Vs. Xbox 360 Your OPINION?

description: Mindtzar And tooncy I dont suppose the PS3 or Xbox controlers are clunky. eh? The Xbox 2 controller looks pretty sleek, kinda like the Dreamcast controller. The original Xbox controller was a monster. That thing was WAYYYY too big, but the S controller is near perfect. The PS3 controller looks shitty, but that's what 3rd party devices are for.

Wtf, now you are totally wrong. New consoles has probably best parts that there are NOW, but when consoles are released, consoles parts are old then. PC has been always more powerful than consoles.

Now, unless you can show me how almost everyone here has a more powerful computer then one of the new consoles, for under about $400-$500, then what I said was correct.

description: Dan wrote on Thu, 26 May 2005 06:07 I'm not such a big fan of consoles myself, but thats because I dont like controllers since I'm a fan of Shoot em up games, so I find controllers hard to shoot with when I'm trying to shoot someone and I'm aiming all around the ceiling and floor etc... I love my mouse ^_^ Same for me. When I played XIII and Halo, I found it difficult to aim properly. I wonder how are they going to fix that. Maybe they Should make it so that you can switch functions of the buttons, so the X O /\ [] buttons could be used for movement, and the arrow butons would do the actions. That way, you could hold the controller in your left hand, mouse in right hand, and be able to play almost like on computer. THIS would improve experience of FPS games on PS3/XboX a LOT. I know it sounds crazy, and that it will probably never be implemented, but if it would, it would be so P.S.: You would not have less buttons(maybe only one, the right analog stick button(R3)), because on a regular controller, everithing you do with left hand could/can be done with a mouse.

description: The PS3 will have better specs, but the Xbox 360 will more than likely be more popular. I heard that it will be compatible with the newer, more popular Xbox games, like Halo 2 and Fable. Personally, i like the Xbox 360 better. Ive got one on Layaway/Preorder right now, that i still need to pay off despite my lack of money. I heard/saw on G4TV's coverage of E3, that the Xbox 360 controller will be wireless. On a side note, whats with the literal opposite coloration of the Xboxes? Xbox is black and the Xbox 360 is white... To quote many people: "FTW?"

description: Its probobly because, after only having a PSX, PS2 and PC for the longest time, you get to loathe Sony when your computer is taken/off/fried. When i first played on the Xbox, i played Ghost Recon. I loved it. The graphics werent what they are now, but i absolutely loved the change of controller and everything. Since the Xbox 360 is going to have better graphics capability than then Xbox, im putting my money on the Xbox 360 for a purchase. Another possible reason, is the graphics. Like a said before, i used to only have the PSX, the PS2, and a PC. The PC had semi-decent Video Card(ATI Radeon 7000.), but overall, the graphics on all three werent to great.

description: This old gem again? From what I understand the X360 is going to be a more flexible system for developers which means we can expect to see more games. And that’s what it comes down to, the games. Sony has been known for their pack of lies (PS2 will have graphical capabilities of Toy Story. PS2's power blows Dreamcast out of the water. Blah, blah blah). I just can't believe some people still think the tech demos from the Sony E3 presentation were shown in real time. I don't want to be seen with the Bananarang controller for the sake of my sexual orientation.

description: 1. Ability to change function of every button to the way you want to. Quote: Most modern games allow you to do this anyway right? Not exactly. Many games do not allow this. For example GTA does not allow this(not sure about San Andreas). On PC, at least 90% of games allow you to change controls to any way you want to 2. Free on-line gaming Quote: No Chance You sure? PS2 has free on-line gaming so why shouldn't PS3 have it free too? 3. More First Person Shooters that allow mouse Quote: Likely but who knows? I think that EVERY First Person Shooter (or third person) should allow the use of mouse. I just don't understand why GTA Vice City, Or Ghost Recon does not allow use of mouse (I have not tried these games with mouse, but they are not on list of games that allow mouse) 5. Ability to browse web Quote: Why? Every man and his dog has the internet already. I guess you are right, but it would still be cool. O.K never mind that 6. Ability to play american as well as European DVD movies (not games) Quote: This wouldn't really appeal to me as I don't watch many movies. I suppose it would benefit somewhat. Yeah it would be good. Through this point, I also wanted to say that I understand why they made it so that you can't play European PS games on American PS and vice versa, but I think that Europe and America should not use different DVDs for movies. O.K I have few new points to add: 7. More RTS games! (you can almost count number of true RTS games for PS2 on both hands) 8. More games that would have ALL of this: - AI (enemy/friendly)players/bots in multiplayer - (at least)4 player split screen - (at least 2 player)co-op with friendly bots included(this is rare right now). VERY few games right now have all of these things. 9. Games that would allow the USB head set to be used instead of some buttons (ex.: In Need for Speed if you say "go" the car will start(you get the idea)) That is it for now.
