Now if we can only kill the "PS3 is a Blu-Ray Player" argument...we'll be straight.

And I don't care what anybody says. The Xbox360 had no games for the 1st year as well.

exactly! if u look at the amount of games xbox had for their first year, and the amount of games ps3 had for their first year. the amount of games on the store shelf was almost identical.

but ppl seem to look at the amount of games xbox has for 3 years. and the amount of games ps3 has for 2 years. than compare. idiots and haters.

Actually I like that "ps3 is a blu-ray player" thing.

The very same thing was said 'bout the ps2.

Fine buy it to play movies, eventually you'll be buying all its games.

kreate is 100% correct.

GTA 5 is going to be PS3 exclusive because GTA 4 was toned down both in size and gameplay to fit onto a DVD disk and thus wasn't as spectacular as it could have been.

Xbox 360 fanboys thought that their console was getting some special love from Rockstar because of the 'episodes' pack, but what they don't know is that these 'episodes' will cost a price, which, as of yet is unknown, at least to the public and the episodes are just bits cut out of the original game.

Rockstar are QUIDS IN with GTA 4. It could of all fit on the Blu Ray disk but they signed the deal with M$ so that they were exclusive to M$. M$ paid $50 million for them.

Rockstar truely, royally screwed Microsoft out of that money because it's just bits cut out of the game.

And may i also add; DVD is showing its age now Blu Ray has surfaced.

And before you think i'm a Ps3 fanboy, i'm not. I actually own an Xbox 360. I do hope to purchase a PS3 for the simple facts;

1) built in Blu Ray player and plays alot more files e.g various AVI encoded files. 360 plays SOME but not all, whereas the PS3 seems to have alot more codecs built into the software.
2) FREE INTERNET!!! (The 360's Live really isn't that much better to make me want to spend £40 ($80) a year on).
3) Most of my friends are now moving from Xbox 360's to PS3's, since the PS3 lineup is looking fantastic and the 360's is a little pale in comparison.

@ King James - You're correct, the only games avail on the 360 at launch were things that could be found on PC or the PS2.

but with gta5, they want to release it only on ps3 becuz xbox doesnt meet the hardware capability.

its a rumor. any of u guys know if this is true?

While I'm clueless about any type of game development it appears to me that the hardware that comprises the Xbox360 is pretty much similiar (or the same as) to PC hardware, which would make sense from an MS perspective and also means developers would find it cake to work with. The PS3 having it's own guts obviously represents a learning curve for developers but it's starting to appear as though they are getting less lazy and actually starting to LEARN the PS3 development stuff, which is sorely needed as otherwise the bulk of these Xbox360-->PS3 ports are running off code never originally intended to take advantage of the PS3s awesome (yes, awesome!) power. That's not fair to consumers as well so they shouldn't whine about poor sales on some of these less then stellar ports. By this time next year they'll have no excuse.

Dude, Halo 2 was ugly. Sure it looked shiny and everything, but the animation for the game was horrible. I don't care how "pretty" your graphics look on whatever console you play, if your characters look like something that came out of Jim Hensen's studio, the game is a visual let down. Halo 2 was a poorly written and horribly animated game from the ground up. Shiny armor has nothing on the animated facial expressions from a game like Tekken 5. Sorry. Suspension of disbelief and all that.

what more can xbox360 do? according to analyst, the next xbox is coming out by 2010. which means the 360 is already maxing out the hardware capability.

The 360 is over 3 years old. MS just moves at a faster pace.

They are not maxing out the hardware yet. But even if thats true who really cares. I mean if the 360s graphics arnt good enough for you I feel pity.

Im just wandering if the next one will use disks, bluray, or DVD. What do you guys think?

I'm pretty sick of your double standard of "I'm not a Xbox fanboy, really!" and then suffering your INANE comments whenever the 360 is brought into question. Furthermore, that's not even the point of this article; it's PS3-focused.

It's not "wrong" for any of you to bash anyone. No one has been banned for bashing just for incessant slander. And you miss the point. PSX EXTREME IS NOT NOR HAS IT EVER BEEN A FAN SITE. It's a news site, that caters to a narrow audience. If they had the man-power Xbox Nerds would be updated just as often. But since it's just Ben, Arnold, and now John they decided to focus primarily on the more popular domain.

I simply hate the fact that people actually treat video games like it's a war. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE FUN. Why do we have dissention among our own ranks? We're all gamers we all enjoy spending our free-time in a similar matter. Why do people care what system sells more? Why do people feel the need to spread hate on those that didn't buy a certain game? I don't get it.

Am I a PlayStation fan? yes. I mean I paid $600 dollars for a PS3 instead of half that for a 360, it's not like I flipped a coin. I love my PS3 to an extreme (IT'S A PUN!). But I'm not stupid it's consumer electronic not Jesus Christ. I understand it's pros and I understand it's cons. If I could afford to do nothing other than play games I'd have a 360 too. I made a rational decision to buy a PS3 as opposed to a 360. I don't see the point in spending 200+ dollars on a product that is almost guaranteed to break within 3 years. But if someone wants to more power to them. I simply hate... unjust hate. (read that last sentence and try to make sense of it I dare you). I don't see any reason to be a loyal drone to ANY corporation. They exist for the sole purpose to take your money.

As far as I can tell I'm fair and state the facts as I see them. I see the pros and cons of both Xbox and PlayStation. In the end opinions tend to stear towards the pro playstation side (maybe that's why I bought it?). If that makes me a fanboy then I guess that particular word's definition is so far gone that we need to start using a new one. How about guava? I like that word. It's funny sounding. I don't think we get to use it nearly enough.

"Fanboy is a term used to describe any individual who is devoted to a single subject in an emotional or fanatical manner, or to a single point of view within that subject, often to the point where it is considered an obsession." (wikipedia's definition)

shadow, we understand this is a news site that gives information and news that caters to the 'narrow' audience. that 'narrow' audience are fans of the ps3.

without us 'fanboys' or 'guavas', yr site is just another site with 1 xbox guy with multiple accounts commenting against u guys.

indirectly, this site has became a fansite. and u guys are also 'guavas' of the ps3. thats why u guys chose to follow up on the ps3 news than the xbox news.

if u guys are not 'bias', than there should be equal amount of news about the ps3 as well as the xbox. also there is no such thing as
'i am unbias'. everyone is bias to a certain extent.

when i mention 'fanboy' u should know what i am talking about. we dont need a wikipedia version.

and the thing about u not understanding why ppl
"treat video games like it's a war"

thats like saying u dont understand why countries go to war with each other. there always has been, currently warring, and we will always war between consoles. its inevitable. u should know that.

I own a 360 I had to buy the wireless adapter, the Live subsription and for what? I don't like fable 2 because I'm not a rpg person, Halo series is shi* Sorry if you don't like me saying that but its just your usual fps. There's no difference and gears 2 was actually a slight let down for me, granted the single player kicked ass but have you tryed that match making service? SHI*. I love how the xbox 360 fanboys like to pick holes at things sony do wrong but have you ever stoped to look at your own console and how much you've spent on it just to get it to operate like you want? I added up all My brother spent on his xbox 360. He could have got a ps3 and a couple of games for the same price. and he would have had all the stuff he had to pay for already included out of the box. Yeah the 360's 3 years old,but no microsoft don't move quicker they have just found that 360 is no longer fit to hold compotition anymore and so they need to bring a new console out. Granted 360's graphics are nice. But thats totaly smashed when you look at the ps3's. what have microsoft delivered this year? the NXE? ha! is all I can say, ooh they added the miis from nintendo and they tweaked the UI. they have had what 3? exclusives this year? 360's dieing in my books you better hope they step it up next year or I can see 360 sales dieing out pretty quickly.

Well you could argue that 360 does have better graphics. GoW2 looks amazing. In multiplat games the 360 version tends to have slightly higher quality textures and a longer draw distance. It still exists because it can still be argued.

What the flying f*** does history have to do with this? If we learned anything from the PS3's pre-launch and first year it's that Sony took their glorious history and pissed all over it. They were arogant, thought they were untouchable. They said "next gen starts when we say it does" "rumble is a last gen feature" etc. The PS3 didn't start to turn itself around until Sony finally tucked its tale between its legs and started to WORK for fan support. Their history is just that. History. Their present is the only thing that matters. They are in a decent position to control the latter half of this market cycle. (what with the more reliable hardware and better future proofing.) But it won't be history that determines if they succeed it will be the decisions they make TODAY.

i would have to agree with shadow on this. but did u know microsoft is even more aggrogant than sony? they are, is, and always will be.

sony at least tries hard to meet the demands of the fans. sony didnt know fans were going to be upset about the rumble issue. so when we complained, they listened.

but what about microsoft? according to lawsuit files and ex-micro employees, stated and confirmed that microsoft knew about their xbox flaws even before it was launched. but micro launched the system anyway so fans can suffer, and micro can make their millions on top of their billions they already have.

so who is better as far as arrogance and meeting fan's demands?

has microosft fixed the issue? will microsoft ever going to fix the issue?

shadow is right about sony. but i am also right about microsoft.

1 game doesn't prove a point. MGS4 is the best looking game this generation hands down. But there are 100 other so-so games out there. until a lot more games start to look like that, PS3 vs. 360 graphics is still an arguable point. A stupid point to argue because it's all opinion and personal taste, but an arguable point none the less.

In all honesty none of us know the capabilities of either console right now. I mean who the hell would have thought the PS2 was capable of something as beatiful as God of War 2 or FFXII? I can only make my judgments based on what is out there right now. MGS4 was made by a psychotic perfectionist (I promise it's a term of endearment) can we really assume that standard developers will be able to replicate that? Right now games generally look the same across both platforms, so until there is a clear advantage somewhere people will argue this stupid thing until someone passes out.

I think multiplatform games looks good on both the PS3 and 360 with the ps3 ports having a little advantage because it uses blu-ray disc on games.

Once again, the usual Fanboys show up. Hey Josh....my brother had a 360..i played Forza 2 and GT4 almost beat it in terms of graphics...Forza 2 was only a mild step up from 1.

Halo 3 although having a great story, game mode too is BARELY step-up from Halo 2...bear in mind i owned Xbox1 and Halo 2 and loved the game...so 3 was a dud largely.

M$ wanted to be cheap and build a corresponding cheap system...and it shows everytime, even to Xbox owners who aren't brainwashed like you or Crapping Ape. You'lll never get the picture and all you can do is spew lies to make yourself feel better.
I know your kind because a couple years ago i used to enjoy being the best/worst kind of Hater fit to attend the Playa Haters ball so i know how your pretty little heads work my man. Lies of a brainwashed gentleman.

No, im not a fanboy, because i would want to buy a 360 for Fable 2 and so i can LEARN more of the story to Halo 3. However while i appreciate some aspects of the system and those games...me saying that the 360 is technologically on par would be a bald faced LIE. Im not saying that the 360 games couldn't look better, they could but if you wish to use BOTH systems to the absolute limit...the PS3 will invariably have a slight visual edge. I can't even talk about what the PS3s processor is truly capable of.

I will genuinely apologize though, i shouldn't have grouped you with the other fanboy just for making one comment. Don't know you well enough. Im sorry. PS: You can call me a Douche bag or whatever the like, i've got much bigger fish to fry.

Ya, it does have better visuals. I've noticed it with ports, i've noticed it exclusives, you name it. 360 doesn't look bad because its still a next gen system, but like i said, to say PS3 doesn't have better visuals is just a lie. Notice how i said PS3 would have SLIGHT edge in graphics. The PS3s greatest strength ISN'T visuals despite the SLIGHT edge ;)

As for your threat, whether you mean with Internet flaming, that's pathetic. If you would hack me, or otherwise extend your threat to real life that would be even more pathetic.
"Tear me a new asshole"...Lol, whatever man, ultimitely its just video gaming, get over it.

Multi-platform games will always be very similar. Both Sony and Microsoft have multiplatform clauses that basically state that a if a publisher makes the other platform version better, the publisher will loose co-marketing support and other incentives.

I just want exclusives to blow everything else out of the water.

while it might be false for the most part, it is still kind of true because at this point most devs still use the 360 as the lead console and that means that testing isn't as thorough on the PS3 version and it needs patches shortly after release. This has happened with a lot of games.

Plus, at this point most consumers are already trained to default to buying the 360 version. I know I rarely even check to see which one is going to be "better".

And -- I have to say this, not threadjacking -- the 360 controller is way better.

No, they don't. In 2009, most devs are NOT using the 360 as the lead platform for all major titles. Like I said in the article, they're either leading on the PS3 or developing them simultaneously on both platforms.

And no.....it's not. ;)

It looks like at least in 2009 there will be some kind of parity between mulitplatform games as many of the 3rd parties are already promising equal development resources on both PS3 and 360. We will just have to wait and see I guess. There's no question though that most of the multiplatform games before 2009 were better on 360.

The controllers are a toss up for me. I like tha analog sticks for 360 better but I like the PS3'ss dpad better. I find the PS3's analog sticks a little too loose specifically for shooters and makes it harder to aim. The 360's dpads are unresponsive specifically for fighting games.

I love the Bonus Round they never seemed particularly biased to me. Decent is probably the perfect word to describe Sony's year. They outsold Xbox for almost the entire first half of the year but got demolished in latter half.

The games they produced sold well but nothing spectacular. They didn't make MGS4 so they're not profiting much from it. Resistance 2 didn't sell as well as they hoped (and I personally think it's less than great). LittleBigPlanet didn't attract new customers the way Sony had hoped.

They had a decent year.

I don't know it just felt to me like they destroyed everything (story wise) that I like about Resistance: FoM. I feel like they made R2 to simply open the universe up to a bazillion different sequels without really advancing the story at all. (There is a thread where we were talking about this in the forums, i don't want to put too many spoilers out here.) Gameplay wise the single player was fun, if not a tad bit predictable at points. And I love the Co-op campaign. However, the competitive multi-player is absolute trash in my opinion. I don't think some of the choices and changes they made really compliment the game.

I was a huge fan of R:FoM multiplayer. Played for more than six months. I was really hoping for a new take on the same mechanics, unfortunately Insomniac decided to make the game similar to Socom or Rainbow Six with the way you get new weapons. I just don't think that the whole: die, get any weapon you want, repeat; thing works for Resistance. I would have preferred them to keep the old Unreal-style system or made the competitive class based like the co-op or like Team Fortress.

I hear what you mean about the Story, it did change from a sort of close to reality fiction shooter to something more fictitious, though i still find it great. I don't know what to say, i think i can enjoy the game either way.

It did get opened up vastly, though i find Insomniac goes way more into detail for the story by way of Intel. I love the intel readings, but for most players they'll wanna SEE the story as it is still a game.

I'll have to see Online before i can talk as like you, i LOVED R1 resistances online, the way it felt and moved and everything else about it truth be told.

on another issue (idea for a new topic)
I'm just wondering if Microsoft did the same with their Xbox720....I mean release it early even with weak machine power or whatsoever problem that may be...will PS4 and its fans suffer the same as they did with PS3(like weak ports and whatnot)? Or Sony has learned their lesson and they already have a plan for the future?

The crappy ports was a problem for two main reasons.
Sony took a major risk with the cell. Something nobody had ever developed for before. It takes everything a person knows about programming and turns it on its side.
And Companies thought that they could just throw a game out on this new platform and expect good results.

Those developers however have learned how to make games work with the cell now though. And it seems like everyday they're starting to do wonders with the new technology. Companies are also wising up and have realized that there is no good way quickly and successfully porting a game to PS3.

I hope that Sony hasn't "learned its lesson" they took a risk. And while the risk undoubtedly hurt them in the short term its looking more and more like the PS3 is designed for the long haul and the 360 is going to need a severe makeover, if not a successor, relatively soon.

Complaining about people who don't acutally exist in this thread is thread jacking spam just the same as someone being an annoying xbox fanboy. And if you absolutely must post off topic nonsence about how there are so many xbots here (1? maybe?) is it too much to ask for at least proper grammar? Getting extremely defensive every time a pro xbox comment pops up is actually more annoying then the fanboys. Let's pride ourselves in not stooping to their level. Unless something absolutely needs this kind of response (which so far, nothing here has) be the bigger man and ignore it. Or else we all look just as biased as anyone else.

Go ahead and look I've never deleted or banned anyone for disagreeing with me, our differences are what makes this a fun community to be a part of.

I have an opinion and I'm going to share it. And for one reason or another it tends to go against the majority's view, maybe I'm a rebel (Viva La Resistance). People tend to dislike that. I get called an asshole to my face on at least a weekly basis. It happens.

and i am only debating. what insults have i made? he insulted himself and i am only agreeing with him.

i liked shadow, until he started to protect josh. shadow is riding the middle of the fence. he doesnt seem to be on our side (ps3 fans) and he lets josh bash us. but when we bash josh, shadow seems to have issues with us.

again, i dont know who u are (probably another fake account of josh) but if i have insulted u, than go ahead and insult me back for whatever the hell i said to u.

for whatever reason, i went ahead and made some fake accounts just to see what happens. im sure shadow would not believe me anyways cuz he doesnt believe josh has multiple accounts, so who cares?

Insulted? slightly. I've been called much worse in my time. Hate to say it Kreate, but I don't believe I have yet insulted you. It all works out though because the last couple things you have posted here have done more damage than any smart-a**, snide remark I could come up with.

I'm now hated because I defended someone? That I have to admit, even for me, is a new one. Also you are dissing me for not going along with your baseless accusations? You have now claimed that 2 people on this site are now just pretend names come up with by your enemy. What proof do you have? You know other than the fact that they hold a different opinion than you? None of these IPs match, none of them even use the same sentence structure!

Let's play this little game for minute then. Maybe I'm JoshAdam360 in disguise! I mean my first name is Josh, I have a brother named Adam, and there are TONS of proxy services based out of Las Vegas, NV. You're making an absolute fool out of yourself.

making multiple accounts is extremely easy.
xbox lovers know me very well on youtube, and they were caught with multiple accounts. of course each account used different way of typing, used different words, different attitudes.

i am sorry that i have insulted u shadow. i like yr thoughts. yr a great guy, and u are also very knowledgable. u know more than me.

i dont know u as much as the other ppl here.
u have many fans here. and i dont want to fight hordes of ps3 fans that are on yr side. but i dont mind fighting against the hordes of xbox fans.

it seems everyone has mixed feelings here. but i havent got any warnings from u or the admins. i am receiving that as me being within 'limits' of the way i post stuff.

if u disagree with me in the future. i promise i wont insult u or be a smart@ss. again i sincerely apologize for my words. i hope things will cool off between me and u becuz i am definately willing to do that.

couple of things here,again the reason we had so many crappy ports was because most (if not all) work went into RSX which its not suppose to do.Its not like the X360 and PC,you can't think CPU+GPU.With the PS3 its all on the Cell.Cell does it all.This is why Intel are making chips this way now(prolly AMD as well) So we will see the death of the GPU prolly in 10 years if not sooner.I know you nah sayers out there say itll never happen.But I was wrong thinking Intel would not make this type of chip.The all in one virtual image processor.Because I thought it would be a financial mistake.But this is a evolution of a business.Im not going into detail with all the incompatablity issues like the OS and PC games.Because games made on a PC that has a Cell type processor will be radically different to make.I would love to see a Cell PC make PS3 games instead of 15 different PCs to make a section of a PS3 game.

I got lost near the end of that post.

I think you were talking about PCs getting cell like chips and the undoing of GPUs. Right?

I think that eventually there has to be a massive shift in the way PCs function. Maybe this new all in one cell chip is it, maybe not. But there is going to be a ton of resistance. It's such a radical shift. I think before that major switch, we might see some hybrid machines that allow old programs and such to work. After there is enough software to support such a new architechture then we can see a true market shift.

I don't think Microsoft will be at the helm if this happens though it'll have to be a new company MS is extremely scared of taking major risks, they'll resist switching to these all-in-one chips with everything they've got.

I think Ben using the phrase "Xbot" has not helped to maintain the civility in the comments. I'm just throwing that out there. Also, for this being a PlayStation brand focused site, a lot of you commenters sure do talk about the 360 A LOT. Its a little suspicious O_o.

Back to topic. There are several multiplat title's I'm already planning to get for the PS3: Rage and FFXIII for sure. Other than that, I'll try to pick whichever one seems to perform better. Though for multiplayer I would still lean to the 360 because I have 81+ friends from the gaming community I joined on there.

GTA IV in PS3 and X360 does not have the same Image Quality.
in motion, both look the same, but for still image quality, the X360 is a bit better. only a bit. its hardly noticable on casual gamer or console gamer when playing GTA IV, everything is in motion, make it less noticable.

but for pc gamer who played the X360 and PS3 version will see this "Small difference".

i also already see GTA IV on PC, its a lot better than the console version but there too many rendering bugs and NO ANTI ALIASING. argh...
in console version, GTA IV have AA.

game ports will never be the same on every platform, but developers really struggling to make the game look identical on all platform. so the difference is not noticable by "the majority of gamer" >_<

@LCF
i still love GPU ;)
i personally dislilke games that CPU intensive. like GTA IV, the physics all calculated by CPU. and its really hard for my slow intel E2140 (dual core) processor....
my pc can run crysis but cant get decent, stable fps on GTA IV....

hmm, maybe this is the reason GTA IV in ps3 and x360 look so similar. both have multithreading processor. (6 thread? or is it 7?)

Well like I stated before,if we all thought like you we will still be in the stoneage.Intel is making a all in one processor designed similar to IBM's Cell BE.So the use of a GPU will be a outdated system. For graphic texture and polygon draw,shaders ect,ect will be far superior with this design,more efficient too.The PS3 is capiable of running at 120 frames per second.You'll see this down the road when more HD-TVs run at 120hz and dev. have a better grasp on the Cell's architecture.Prolly see this near the end of the PS3's life cycle and would not be surprised if its standard on the PS4,in fact on all PC's with Cell type processor.

Microsoft is not stupid. They realized that the 360 is losing its "fuel" and that the system it's self was/is becoming decadent. They choose an alternative; taking advantage of the financial crisis[depression] we are in. The 360's price tag is $200 campared to the ps3's price tag $400. In summary, the only thing keeping the 360 alive is its price tag.

@Spartan- Either something is wrong with you or you have been living in a cave for the past several months and just miraculously came out; the ps3 has a plethora of enjoyable or "good games" on store shelves. For the record, I hope you have been living in a cave for the past few months :)

The price tag is the main thing it has going for it but MS is also much better at marketing their products right now. It also helps that their two biggest franchises have extremely strong mainstream fanbases already. Right now Sony doesn't have anything as easy to sell to the masses as Halo or Gears.

Only Teamfortress 2 and left for dead are on dedicated servers from Valve but those games get hacked into.It dont matter if the game host is on the other side of the state.It depends on how many hops it takes to reach the host and if there is a break you get the teleporting you see in the game.Why pay a service for someone to host? And what if their connection is from Walmart? PSN has free dedicated servers.Its all backwards.

Hosting = Free service
Dedicated servers = Fee

5 reasons why halo and gears is popular:

1.there's nothing else to play on the 360

2.xbox is a cheap system that dies out so its good to play for the moment being.

3.microsoft was successful with their propoganda schemes

4.poor class of america who can't afford a gaming pc(for halo + gears) or a ps3

5.people who are stuck with old technology.

To a certain extent it does. 360 does without a doubt have a better GPU. That is fact. The PS3 however has the Cell which is so powerful many of the functions usually programmed to a GPU can actually be done on the CPU without running into overload problems. This is why people say the Cell is so different. It changes is the way programmers have to make things run. On PCs and (as far as I know) all other recent consoles you have a CPU to take care of things like AI, controls, etc. while the GPU takes care of texture mapping, camera, etc. The Cell has so many cores that almost all these functions can be done on the CPU itself leaving the less than stellar GPU to do only the bare minimum. As developers continue to learn the little ins and outs of the Cell they'll learn that the weaker GPU isn't as big a weakness as they once thought.

(I'm not 100% sure about the specifics I wrote but that's the way I understand it) :)

If I remember right RSX is a long way off of the Xenos thing. RSX is very similar to the old GeForce 7800, and the Xenos is closer to chips that just came out.

I'm just stating facts the way that I see them, and it's true. Many 360 multiplats have slightly better textures and longer draw distances. All I said is that, that is still a valid, though dumb, argument.

Check your facts Shadow.The RSX is twice the power of the 7800.Which in this case it's more than enough to just simply draw.X360s textures are crap because all texture on the X360 is compressed.Compression=Lossy data.Compare games from 1-2nd party to games exclusive to the X360 and you see a radical difference.Unreal Engine 3.5 is a crap engine and its the best microsoft has on its platform at the moment.The true test will come with FFXIII.

FFXIII will show how hard S-E has been suxing microsoft's wee-wee for money.If the textures look the same on both systems,we'll know that the PS3 ver.has been downgraded.

If xbox is relying on their next gen 720 or watever, then thats like admitting defeat between the 360 n Ps3.

Think about it, the ps3 is not yet maxed. I believe I havent heard bout the same thing for the 360.

Ps3 is more future proof n more reliable than the 360 - Fact.

360 exclusives can be handled on the ps3, not completely true vice versa.

I also believe the 360 is holding back on the quality of games for this gen. For ex, if 360 supported blu-ray, guitar hero/rock band would hve a lot more songs built in than they do now. But to keep things fair, they got to keep the contents down.

This is why I dont like multiplatforms. Instead of making it its best, they gotta standardize it for all the systems to be fair. FF13 better not be limited in quality because they gotta be fair with the 360 version. I expect the ps3 version to be superior.

It isn't in any developer of multi-plat games' interest to make their game noticably better for either system(esp now there's no excuse for lazy PS3 ports-Orange Box)-they'd make one of their markets unhappy(not to mention MS or Sony. That wouldn't be good business right now. Maybe if we get to a point where EVERY PS3 exclusive shows up EVERY multi plat, but not yet.
Certainly SE won't want to upset MS and stop the lovely big cheques currently landing on their mat. Will be interesting to see how good FF13 Vs is mind you. Also SE have their bread buttered with the great money they make on handhelds so to expect FF13 to be better on PS3 is, I fear, a lost cause.
Back on topic. Good article Ben. The MO for better Multi's for all should now be plain-you lead on PS3 then port to 360. It's both easier that way AND gets the best aggregate results for both sets of gamers. Also this years, and those are only the announced games,PS3 exclusive line up knocks any other consoles into touch(esp considering most good 360 games will be on PS3 too-'cept anything Halo based)to further stop the daft "PS3 has no games" argument. This should have ended way back but you underline it well. What will folk moan about when/if the price cut comes? Home, prolly.

You're asking the wrong question. It's not what he smokes. It's what he doesn't smoke.

i think that gamers fighting over what console is better is completely stupid. i own a wii and a ps3 the only reason i do not have a 360 is because i don’t have the money to throw away on a system that has more bugs than a two dollar whore. the xbox was plagued with bugs and now the 360. my hats off to microsoft though for selling millions of units that are piles of crap. now there is buzz on the net about a new xbox. already. come on people wake up. microsoft needs blu ray but their pride will get in there way and force consumers to trade their consoles in every four years. i had xbox and i sold it because there was no games that i cared for halo typical fps just like and other on the ps3. there will never be a halo killer because its fps.all fps are the same the only thing that changes is the story. the wii on the other hand is not even this gen it last gen and its a kids toy. i bought for 2 and 4 year old and i play it rarely for zelda. as far as i’m concerned my ps3 was worth every penny i paid and i bought it when it was 600. its still the best blu ray player and in my opinion its the best gaming system. another thing the reason the 360 is out pacing the ps3 in sales is because it came out like over a year earlier. microsoft keeps dropping the price because they know their system needs to be replaced with something ps3 equilavent. hence why there making the ‘720′ or ‘phoenix’ or whatever f** name they can think of but it will not cange the fact that microsoft puts out over priced pieces of s***.
peace

I remember i was watching College humor and they had this one comedian on there saying, " That Ps3 and 360, are like Crips and Bloods and it is so true etc...! but PS3 is more legit!

Ok, I've been frequenting this site for a long time. I am a playstation owner to the fullest and have not owned a console made by another company since the 64 and dreamcast. With that said, I have to honestly say that this article does little to those of us that are conscious of the potential good in both forces in this industry.

If you are making an argument to debunk an anti ps3 argument then you have to provide reasonable evidence to support your statements. You are preaching to the choir my friend. Chances are, we already agree with you. Simply stating that x,y and z games are pretty much the same on both consoles doesnt allow any of us who have not played both to grasp the truth in such a statement.

From screen shots we can most likely all agree that the gap is not very significant anymore, but i cannot bring myself to say that the ps3 has the edge hands down (and I am all about ps3 this gen). We may assume that ps3 will potentially edge out the 360. For this perhaps, technical reasons could provide meat to your argument. But like i stated before you are preaching to the choir. So what is it exactly that we are accomplishing by publishing this?

The best answer is not a bad one, and that is that is sparks a dialogue between subscribers to flesh out what you have left relatively bare. So i cant say that this was any sort of waste of time but I will say that as a stand alone article in such a forum, it was just a little lacking. Just my two cents.

u cant honestly tell me that u created this site expecting to have neutral discussions that would focus completely on the topic at hand, i mean it is a site concentrated in videogames where ppl post comments in middle of night , if u r incapable of understanding that society always has extremes n sometimes u must swallow ur pride or sence of logic to survive then u my friend r in for a rude awakening. perhaps the survive part is to exagerated but u get the point. merry happy nu yrs christmas honika , pardon my spelling it sucks i know but i havent taken eng class in quite a while

Is it really too much to believe that people can have real discussions anymore? That's upsetting.

Please don't blame your lack proper spelling on not having an English class. You don't ever forget how to use vowels. You were just lazy. It's cool, no biggie, just sayin.

PS3 > 360.

Thanks for reading.

And Ben, please make another article about the Blu-ray part. Microsoft keeps saying that Blu-ray is going no where and its not going to sell anything and won't kill the DVD and down-streaming or streaming is the new way .. lmao, I wonder how they can tell the future specifically to a well-known hardware company thats been in years in service (Sony). So please make an article on that, and kill that stupid ass rumor.

yeah it's up to the devs and their ability to program how the cross-console games are. with some real coders at work, the ps3 version should be smoother, faster.

Man , this is rich!!! Ha,ha,ha....swear your undying loyalty to the Ps3 or be branded a traitor to the cause....Ha,ha..
Dude, i own both systems. Right now they are both too similar in performance to crown a winner. I'm still waiting for all of this untapped power the Ps3 has.
The jury is still out on the whole Blu-ray issue.

heres what i find so funny about the console wars. the 360 is very close to
needing replaced and here that in 2010 microsoft is coming out with a xbox 720
or phoenix or whatever but the point is when microsoft replaces the 360 and
support for that system then they come to the market with the 720 at 400 to 600
dollars and now the ps3 is in position to take the market back from microsoft.
microsoft systems have a very short shelf life so i think in 2012 microsoft will
stop making gaming systems. the ps3 is great for the money i payed 600 and never regretted it. i would never buy a 360 because of the failure rate. plus 360 is made with current technology not next gen technology. my ps3 is awesome. all my friends had numerious rrod's and finally said the hell with it and bought a ps3 and rave about it and wish they would have bought one sooner and how they wasted money buying a 360. because when you buy a 360 you're pretty much throwing money away. my brother has a launch 360 and its on its last legs. the 360 is lous as hell

Disagree on the Fallout 3 issue. I've played my copy (PS3) and my cousin's copy (Xbox 360), and I must say the framerate and draw distances are much better on the 360 version.

Do note I still love the game, just pointing those out.

Sure! I'll take the challenge. . . Fallout 3 sucks on the PS3 and is near flawless on the 360. There, I said it. Now, I love my PS3, but if it isn't the lead platform when games are developed they tend to not be as great, and that's only because it takes a bit more time to write for and if they start at the same time and finish at the same time, the PS3 will always look a bit, ... unfinished.
Now, if it's the other way around, then it's a different story. So if people don't start buying these (expensive to make) games on the PS3 as opposed to the 360 look for the devs to spend even less time on the PS3. The economy is going to hurt the PS3 devs more than any other console, and that I will bet my left nut on.

and yeah, most of the posters from the US have a dislike for the PS3, it's just not the go to console here in the states. So why is EUrope so loyal to a console that ignores THEIR needs and caters to the US, even though most hate the PS3? ...$Money$.
Even MS puts out all those dopey jrpg type games for Europe and Japan even though the US hates those games. Why?.... because the 360 is about making ALL gamers that like ALL genres happy. Personally, without all 3 consoles I couldn't survive, but my PS3 is not my "go to" console this gen, and probably never will be.

I'm a long time Sony console supporter and my take on the PS3 is too much too pricey and too late. Everything Sony did right with the PS1 and PS2, they've done horribly wrong.

First up I don't care how many bells and whistles Sony out into the PS3 the fact remains unless the console has some kick ass games it ain't gonna sell.

The Wii sits atop the video game empire and it doesn't have a lot of fancy features nor does it have any kick as games in house or exclusives. Last time I checked, the PS3 was in distant 3rd place in sales !

Sony shot themselves in the foot with the high price tag especially when it debuted on the heels of our current economic situation.

The blu-ray drive was not necessary as there weren't an installed base of hdtv's. The few people who do own hdtv won't bump up sales.

Then there's the many variations of PS3's ! People were't sure which models played PS2 games and which ones didn't. Sony has more varitations of the PS3 than Baskin-Robbins has ice cream flavors.

They kept potential buyers out of the loop in terms of what a PS2 would or wouldn't do or what features it had or didn't have ! Peoplew ere confused !

Recently Sony announced they've cyt production costs by 35% yet the PS3 is still too pricey for most average gamers.

I hope it doesn't come true but as it stands now, the PS3 is a bust !

Sony should have laid the ground work for Home during the PS2's popularity since MS had doen just that with the original xbox. But no, they delayed and delayed and kept people waiting.

I've been playing the Lord of the Rings Conquest Demo off the PS3 store full game releases January 15th. Great game I am planning to rent but my main gripes about it are 480p no 1080 no custom soundtracks & frequent online lag & disconnects so for the these issues alone I imagine it's yet another multiplat that's better on the box.
