[simipro 0]

What do you guys think about these systems?Personally I believe that the Playstation 3 is gonna be a lot better than the xbox360. But I am only saying this out of my knoweldge about the two systems.First off, playstation 3 technology that is futuristic. It has Graphics cards that hasnt even been used in computers!Post your Comments/Replys!

To me i think they both looks almost identical, they are both roundish silver like things... personally i would go with ps3 because i've been a ps person since ps1 and never really had much likeing for the xbox but right now they have almost no difference in style which is really disappointing... i thought ps3 was going to be more box like and white, guess i was wrong...

Hardware wise from what I have read the Xbox 360 is superior to the PS3. But then it will all come down to the games and the extra things you can do with them. The Xbox 360 still has the xbox live and their server is more powerful for the 360. Now they have also made it free on the weekends. So the one thing that I am wondering about is the games...will they live up to their names...or will they just look the same. I will be getting both of them...

I'm not quite sure..i do not posses neither of them But,heres what i think..PS3 is better in one way,cuz most of the games are made first for it,then ported to other systems...But,XBOX has so much better hardware[which meens better performance],and knowing that Microsoft is also a huge game developer,we have many good games for this console too...Also looks better then PS3..So,my choice would definitely be Xbox360.

I agree, Xbox Live is one of the reasons Xbox 360 will be way better than Playstation 3. Otherwise, I love all the games that come out on Xbox currently, so I too hope that the games are as good as they should be.

I believe that the xbox 360 will be far superior. It looks very nice and polished and it has an advantage because it is released earlier compared to the playstation

Hardware wise ps3 is superrior. Here is whats gonna make or break ps3 (in the beggining) PRICE. if it comes out at 500 dollars (hopefully it wont) noone is really gonna buy it. Another thing you haft to look at is xbox live service thats there main beauty. look for some good upgrades there. But what playstation has going for it is it's amazing superior graphics. Someone mentioned about them being pre-rendered yes most of them were but not the fight night or unreal clip.

Another thing playstation ussually has going for it is its 3rd party support. Ps@ had the largest third party support, but now with the ps3 they might lose that because of the cost its gonna make to make the games.< Which is were nintendo comes in they are keeping everything cheap. Games will be cheap. And they will probably have the strongest third party support. look to pick up a revolution. You could go on and on about there advantages and disadvantages but really those are the main things.

Actually, there has been some professionals that have analyzed both of the game systems and they rendered that the Xbox 360 is more superior. I know people that if a game comes out on both Xbox and PS2, they will always get the Xbox version for the graphics, so there is alot of people that will disagree with you on that part. And you saying that th PS3's graphics are going to be all that superior, have you see what the creator of final fantasy is making for the Xbox 360...it's ****ing awesome. Microsoft is branching out to third parties, I read somewhere that they are making a deal with Nintendo and Sony about their PSP and DX having some time of support for Microsoft games and can be run through the Xbox 360, something like since the controllers use USB ethernet adapters for charging the PSP could keep battery life from there or something. Also something about being able to play Xbox live games on the DX and PSP...dunno how the deal is going through right now. Microsoft doesn't feel like getting into the handheld business.

I think that the Playstation 3 will be much better.The features are by far much better than the Xbox 360.
