WRX22B1998 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 (edited) Which of these should I buy?? Vote, then post your reasons for the vote..edit: i see 1 for each...great FYI I dont want this to turn into a "360 SUX PS3 is the BEST" topic...just asking for opinion I have a PS2 already, but since I'm in Australia we got scammed (only ps2 emulation) on the ps3... The 40gb ps3 is $600AU i think now (with 1 control and a game I think) The 360 is $500 for a Pro pack with Forza 2, another game, 20gb hdd I was considering 360, but Im so used to PS2 control, it takes a bit to get used to. Also the fact I could plug my Ipod in and play all songs off the media browser thing..PS3 i have heard is really picky with external hard drives (my friend had to format his in like ~10gb partitions) But PS3 looks cool (and is less noisy I think, 360 is so noisy) The reason I have excluded Wii is that it is unable to play a lot of the more demanding games (GTA4 was a factor as well) Edited December 22, 2007 by WRX22B1998 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I think you should get a PS3 because it has great graphics,blu-ray,and Playstation store is free,unlike Xbox Live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Buy the PS3, it's better than the 360, mainly because of the blu-ray and you're right the PS3 is silent,there are other reasons P.S- You can buy the best game ever( MGS4) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I can only say XBOX 360, it does what it's meant to do, and it does it well. It's much cheaper than the PS3 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX22B1998 Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Cool thanks guys for your opinions so far... connor did you vote? there's only 1 vote for 360-- or did you vote before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 The 360 isn't cheaper than the PS3 anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Not according to the topic starter... The 40gb ps3 is $600AU i think now (with 1 control and a game I think)The 360 is $500 for a Pro pack with Forza 2, another game, 20gb hdd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX22B1998 Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 It is cheaper than PS3 (in Australia anyways)...I suppose a bigger hard drived 360 would cost more, but Im just using these prices for reference as I would be buying one of the two, although there are sometimes better deals by maybe $10... 360 is cheaper by ~100 here (the 20gb bundle with 2 games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkali64 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Get a 360. Not only is it better, but it also has allot of kickass games for it. And don't worry, i never had any trouble getting used to the controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The controller is much better too, feels better on your hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciaran Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Well honestly... If you want a cheap Blu-Ray player, free online play, a place to store all your music, videos and pictures. Then get a PS3. If you want a gaming machine, where you have to pay for online play, get a 360. Or you could just get a Wii, cus it pWns all!

TM™ Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I feel some fanboyism is going to start up, especially when there's alot of posts here that are definitely marked as "Fanboy", so I'm gonna stick out of this. But fortunately, I'm going to be getting a console soon (In 08') and I really am stuck on which to buy, so I'll be sticking around in this topic to see what you guys (With the consoles) would say.

Ivan Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Do you want to play powerfull games or cool fun games? If it's the first choice then it's PS3, if it's the second the Wii. I know you like mgs so buy the PS3 to play MGS4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway if you buy the wii then you can't play GTA IV. Yeah, but I'm just saying that he should choose what console he thinks suits him. From the sounds of it, he suits the PS2 controller so the PS3 would be perfect for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRX22B1998 Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Thanks dudes, umm yeah I said at the start what TM was thinking... I think I will go ps3 especially considering 360 u have to pay for online, smaller hard disk, different control.. and blu-ray! plus i wanna get the next gran turismo whatever they are gonna call it cos i love those games..and ps3 control is basically the same as ps2 so can you plug n play ipod, i never tried with ps3 but 360, just plugged it in, and can browse just like on computer...i suppose it'd be the same I like Wii , its heaps fun (friend & cousin has one) but I want something thats powerful enough for all the new games, (instead of shelling out ~$1500 for a new pc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 It's more dificult to plugg in the ipod in the ps3 but you can manage to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
