Xbox but when the Xbox 720and PS4 come out I'm afraid ill have to change sides as the PS4 will be a better, faster console with more ram, a quad core processor and will look way sexier. :P

Let me guess... PS4! Now polishes your shoes with air!

As for Xbox720... Xbox 720! Now makes your food!

Actually the PS3 has an 8 core cell processor running at 1.6gHz (if I recall the frequency specs correctly, but I know the 8 core part is correct). 6 of those 8 cores can be used for another operating system if you decide to install another os on there (supported by the ps3). I guess the other 2 can only work with the PS3 os.

Then there's the 360 with a Tricore CPU of which I forget the model and frequency specs of.

Trust me when I say the PS3 trumps the Xbox360 in hardware.

The graphics on a PC are way better than any other current console in my opinion and most of the major games are available on steam so i have no idea why you are comparing it to the wii.

You don't have an opinion here unless you've owned and played both for a long time.
I've had both since they were both released and I can honestly say I have no 'favourite'.

They both serve their purpose very well, but here's the differences in my opinion:

PS3: More for entertainment over gaming. Obviously the online experience is not as talked about as xbox live is, but blueray and what not is a fairly good alternative.

xbox 360: More for gaming over entertainment. xbox live is more dominant over the playstation network, and there's a heck of a lot more features for the online experience.

As for hardware, (controllers, looks etc) I don't judge things off appearance, as long as they both serve their purpose.

I completely agree with deekay on this one.  They have there pros and cons.  Although I do prefer Xbox 360, for texting controllers, gaming experiences and other stuff.

I have both, as well, and I have to say... PS3.

It just does more and it does it well. There is nothing that the XBOX does that the PS can't (other than certain games).

Both are equally terrible. I vote PC.
Title: Re: The eternal question will be answered...
Post by: clawstrider on February 14, 2013, 06:31:55 pm
Having got a PS3, I of course vote...

No, I haven't used it in ages, PC is better for me in every way.

PC, duh. Never have to update it when the new consoles come out and you can completely customize your hardware.

GUYS STOP!

Neither is Better than the other.  It is a matter of opinion.  Both are amazing but here is some points to think about before buying.

PS3:

Little Big Plannet

Don't have to pay for online

Based around the family

XBOX:

Big smooth chunky controller

Halo + Minecraft

(Copied PS3) Just a note


-WoodenSlime

P.S. Gamecube is the best

I was hardcore. I had Kirby and the Amazing Mirror (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirby_%26_the_Amazing_Mirror) but my gameboy stopped saving games (It just broke). I completed the whole of that Kirby game in 1 run, leaving my gameboy on for like 3 days in a row.

If the game broke all you need to do is take it apart and re-place that little battery at the back.  It should work straight away.  If its the gameboy itself i'm not too sure about that.

Title: Re: The eternal question will be answered...
Post by: Chief149 on February 28, 2013, 03:13:10 am
Xbox ftw.

Red ring of death
PAYING for online play
not a whole lot of graphics power
can't be upgraded with hardware as game programming technology gets better
720p (or is it 720i? I forget). Resolution is scaled up to 1080p but the rendered resolution is 720p

PC
Very stable. As long as you don't do something stupid like put an i7 in a box with a default Intel heat sync and overclock it then you're fine.
Free online play
You can pirate the games!
Can upgrade the hardware
More graphics power (more polygons and a sharper image)
1080p by default. Graphics card of course can usually support twice the size if you have multiple monitors :P

I can tell you that the xbox does NOT get the red ring of death anymore.
As for paying for online play, you get other things as well, like Zune. It lets you listen to unlimited songs as you want, if you pay for it, and that sir is a pretty good deal. It's not like you're pirating the music.

If it was between Xbox and PS3, it would be Xbox. On tip of the cool stuff, it is way more secure. Never been hacked and each update, ALL updates add another 10 firewalls.

PS3 fanboys: Free online play!

Xbox fanboys: Never been hacked!

Me: It's just different games. You can either have Halo, or Ratchet and Clank. Gears of War, or Resistance.
