Makes sense  [*odd*]


I like both equally at this point, depending on the games or apps I'm using. I get to watch every NBA game in HD through an Xbox 360 app with my league pass subscription, so I definitely love that. I enjoy on the PS3 it's a lot easier to put music on it and use custom soundtracks in games.

I just find the online play to be far superior on the 360 gives it the edge probably because it cost where the ps3 network is free.


One must pay for quality i guess

chuck i thought you were a solid ps3 homer that swore against the 360 what happened?

lately there have been x-box live arcade games that have just made me play it more. minecraft is one. but there have been ones like splunky. super meat boy. and halo 4 has taken up a lot of my time.

online shooters i get on 360.
fighting games i get on ps3.

anything else is whatever the shop has, is cheeper or what i just bloody well grab first. lol

i will say thought that the ps3 has the best exclusive of this console gem. and that is the uncharted games. number 2 being my favorite.

he got a 360 cheep to play nba 2k12

38 i think. i went about 2 months without net. and before i clocked out the net at my old place in about a week. lol

Post by: Shadow on February 05, 2013, 03:37:44 PM
I still have a 360. Never played the PS3 to any lengthy amount of time so I can't really compare the two overall. Though I would say that Halo pretty much trumps anything console exclusive-wise for me... nothing on the PS3 really has caught my attention.

I haven't had Live in years, since I've pretty much shipped on over to pc games, but I can say for a fact that it's ridiculous Microsoft is still charging for Live when basically all other networks are completely free.

Let's not forget how expensive Microsoft points are compared to DLC for other systems. It's fucking ridiculous.

Unfortunately for me the only person I know that has a PS3 I refuse to speak with.

I owned it for a short while, enjoy driving the jeep or whatever it was but ultimately got annoyed with it because I don't really enjoy FPS games, I prefer third-person views.

Everyone knows PS3 is where it's at, for the bottom line of exclusive games. Halo and Gears? Who gives a fuck. Halo was the shit... like 10 years ago. Keep dishing out your dough for Xbox Live for an inferior product. Bill Gates can't even believe he's getting you guys to pay for that shit.

Don't own either one. All I have is a Playstation 2 and an old X-Box.

Neither one is better. They both have their strengths and weaknesses.

Post by: Crash Dummie on February 06, 2013, 12:04:37 AM
I don't own either, but I sort of prefer Sony's controller, and the fact that the PS3 plays bluray. Otherwise, they're two very good consoles.

I still spend most of my time playing indie games on my computer (less expensive, require less time and probably more fun) and more reently, importing Japanese wrestling games for my SNES. I got myself a sweet Universal Adapter.

I love Mac Os X. It looks great, it's useful, it's fast, it's not expensive and it's perfect for my job and needs.

However, I hate Apple. They make average computers, they cost a metric shit ton of money, they look great, but any they'll ignore any criticism you might have with their products, including defects, and they have an iron claw on their customers, myself included.

I think I'll try to BUILD my next computer, and install whatever the newest version of Os X is on it.

Possibly 3 new Metal Gear games. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, and "The Phantom Pains" which appears to be a MGS game disguised as a new IP, but speculation is that it's actually Metal Gear Solid 5.

Picked up a ps3 today mostly because i got a great deal on it. Now owning one for the first time in about 3+ years  ever since the first models came out whenever that was, i must say i am a lot more satisfied with the system now than i was back then. This is probably due to a lack of any quality titles for a while after it's launch.

you know subconsciously that just might be it.



System i got came with borderlands 1 and 2, assassins creed 3 and transformers

borderlands is one addictive game i must say

wife also went out and bought me heavy rain when i mentioned it after reading about it somewhere here on the forum.

so i have some quality games to play with the system now, enjoying it much more

so like a dummy i put in borderlands 2 to make sure it was working and found out how part one ends  [*angry*]

so i switched from part one to part 2 and must say i like it much more anyway, not that the first was bad or anything just feel like part 2 has a much better feel to it as far as looks and mechanics, almost like a live action comic.

i found with borderland 1 it took till i leveled up to level 15 before i started having fun. i almost returned it but a co-worker told me to stick it out. and yeah the ending of 1 was SHIT. the ride there is fun. if a bit mindless.
