Well, uhm..I think that a lot of people in the clan will agree that it is a good topic.

It may be a good topic, but is it debate club worthy, or sandbox worthy?

Thats what DC was talking about, it's an opinion thing, we can't seem to get ether side to switch. I think it should be moved to Sandbox.

...do it, noone is even sparing a look at it HERE.

3 people agree, I think that's enough.

Moved to Sandbox section.

Ok, here's some reasons why XB360 pwns:
1. Awesome online functions.
2. Viva piñata!
3. Fable 2.
4. Smooth controllers.
5. Halo 3.

But there is a few bad things about it:
1. Red ring of doom!
2. Expensive online.
3. No LBP. :(

The PS3 may have free online and Blu-Ray, but what is the balance? It is much more expensive than the 360.

I've had my 360 for two years, and it is the best investment besides my laptop computer. Before my 360, I had a PS2 and before that, the original Playstation. IGN has done comparisons on certain games and the 360 has been proven to have better graphics, with PC versions the best.

The PS3 does have it advantages, however, but the 360, overall, is better, in my opinion.

I've heard rumors of PSN becoming $30/yr. For online but seriously? That's like, what? Half the price of XBL?

The playstation controllers are possibly the worst in existence (I don't own either of the two, though I play on both consoles often @ friends. The Xbox360 just takes the cake by far).

Next we have blu ray: So what? I buy a console not because theres a certain kind of player in it, I buy it to play games.
I agree, the PS3 has some better graphics, but that's just not the thing I'm looking for. I am still playing old SNES games, I enjoy tales of symphonia (old gamecube).

And let us not forget the franchises: Uncharted (PS3s greatest title) vs Halo.
Halo hands down.

As to multiplayer: COME ON, 60 dollars a YEAR? When the online multiplayer is so much better on the Xbox-360 than on the PS3, thats worth it.

360....This might be the first time I agree with you. ._.

I've played Halo, a lot. I actually own both systems and PS3 owns by comparison.

I don't get why people are so fixated on Halo, I don't especially love the campaign and let's face it, the weapons and gameplay could easily be compared to Unreal Tournament. (Available on everything but Wii)

And for franchises otherwise, many are spilling over to other systems as well as 360. Viva Pinata is available for DS, so there is no need to buy a 360 for that.

Uncharted 2 is mind-blowingly amazing. ODST came out last year and it has already been surpassed by Uncharted in gameplay and has been nominated game of the year over ODST by game informer.

Don't get me wrong. Halo is a good game, but it's not fantastic. Maybe Halo: Reach will be better.

Personally, i like xbox 360 better, i have tried all other consoles but nothing amounts to the 360 in my eyes. I just like the way its controller fits in my hands naturally, and that it does have some games for it that are better for it than the ps3, also in my opinion.They both have their differences and similarities though. If consoles were better based off of popularity xbox360 would win. Xbox live has much more players than psn.

@Alderos

More players? Proof?

by Alderos on Sat Feb 20, 2010 12:13 pm

Just check servers on the respecting companies websites...

by **Hunter Reckoning** on Sat Feb 20, 2010 12:15 pm

All of the above! They both have their pros and cons, but I love em both!

Xbox or PS3?
