Re: PS3 or Xbox360
Why will HD DVD stay around? Because, in case you live with your head in a box, you'll have read that they stopped production of HD DVD. The new format is Blu Ray. HD DVD is becoming a relic.
And you never said WHY X-box online is better. It might be better - I don't know. I have a PS3, and I get lag-free online for no money.

Re: PS3 or Xbox360
Wow.
No offense, but... that's kinda the exact OPPOSITE of what I think. PS3 is actually more expensive than Xbox. And to me, even though the PS3 is more expensive, online play is free and I have never had a lag, like Mal said. Xbox live may be cool, too. I haven't played it. So I wouldn't really know.

Re: PS3 or Xbox360
Holy **** this thread is full of the most ****ing biased opinions ever. I've played both a lot and this is what I have to think of both of them
Xbox 360
- Better if you like FPS games
- More games in general (Hasn't been out a whole lot longer than PS3)
- Better online play but at a cost
- High Failure rate
PS3
- Decent failure rate
- Free online play
- Not many games out (And ffs they haven't come out with games any faster than when it first came out)
- Higher cost
So really IMO get an Xbox if you like your online FPS games and get a PS3 otherwise. It's all preference in the end so can everybody shut the hell up saying "lul i leik da sistem i bot cuz it dun die on me" or "i leik da sysem i own cuz it haz moar gams" because it's all pretty much 'I like the system my parents bought me for Christmas this year'.Last edited by fido123; 05-14-2008, 06:02 AM.Comment

Re: PS3 or Xbox360
What? Decent failure rate for the PS3?
I've only recently heard of systems failing, and the turnaround to get them back is a lot shorter than the 3 weeks it takes to get a new Box. And the X-box has been out a freakin' year longer than the PS3. If you think that's not a long time to pick up production of games and pump them out at a higher rate, you're daft. Of course they're going to have more games.
And I bought my PS3, thank you, because I have a job. I pay my own bills. I get SOCKS for Christmas.
... Man, failure rate does factor into it. You can't just ignore that 1 in every 3 X-boxes will fail. You can say that it's an easy statistic to ignore, but it eats up a hell of a lot of time. I would rather pay the extra hundred bucks for the PS3 and get an 'insurance policy' that I'll never be for more than a week without being able to game."A new take on the epic fantasy genre...

Re: PS3 or Xbox360
My cousin actually got an X-box around the same time as I got my PS3.

I've had to have mine fixed. . . none.
Failure Rate?
Yeah, it's pretty imortant.

Re: PS3 or Xbox360
I meant decent failure rate as in it's failure rate is satisfactory (Hardly fails). Also I was talking to the users who just freaking put down the system they don't have and don't take into account the good things about the other system at all. I was just trying to make a point that different people buy different systems for different reasons than yours.What? Decent failure rate for the PS3?

Re: PS3 or Xbox360
Oooh. Wow. Well, that's a strange way to state that the system has a low failure rate. I read that entirely wrong.
*cough*
OH, TOKZIC, I'm hardly ever at my home computer. I know you tried to catch me on AIM, but I usually surf FFR from work and pretty much never come back from "away" status. My bad, my bad.
