360 or PS3?

I've been debating over which I should get.. Hell, what does the 360 even have to offer?

really i'd base it on what games you want

the PS3 has MGS4
that would be enough of a selling point to me personally

That doesn't sound like a wise choice.. Look at what happened when I bought the Wii for Brawl.

the 360 had a price drop recently i think but i'm starting to feel like i want a ps3 more

Yeah, me too for some unknown reason. The PS3 is just appealing for no damn reason..

Mostly it will come down to the exclusives. And 360 manufactures recently should be about as likely to break down as a PS3. Plus multi-platform games do tend to run better on the 360 than on the PS3. And the 360's games are a little cheaper, as is the console itself.

i think the biggest thing that appeals to me for the ps3 is the free online

Same.

And what is the difference between the Core Package and the other Package thingie?

for which system?

Both. I literally know nothing about the 360 or PS3.

MGS4 was pretty good.

PS3, but then again you should've seen this coming.

The PS3 can play your old PS2 games and Japanese PS3 games along with your American PS3 games.

The Ps3 doesn't need a memory card, No RROD (Although this has become less of a problem as of late), Free Online, most of the 360's exclusives are now showing up on the PS3, and it has finally attained a good library of games.

Anyone who says otherwise is too picky or is not trying hard enough.

Free online, huh? That's a major selling point for me and it has no region lock as well. GOD DAYUM.

Yeah but only for PS3 games. If it had no region lock for PS2 games as well then F/UC would be easy pickings. But unfortunately the discs for PS1 and PS2 games are region locked.



God damn it.

You'll have be careful what model you buy though. Not all PS3's have backwards compatability.

i don't think the 40 gig model is backwards compatible though

Yeah. If you can find one, get a 60GB.

That'll play any PS2 game, besides 2 of them.

It determines.

Of the ones on the market, the 80GB had the best Backwards Compatability , unless you find a 60GB.

80gb has backwards compatibility?

yeah but it occasionally has problems with certain games

It's good with MOST PS2 games. But it's not rare to find a game that fucks up.

Just be careful with what you play.
