Sony Playstation 3

Cynder Fan · Oct 06, 2007 1:05 AM

I'm not into the Playstation. I have been playing Nintendo exclusively since I was very young, and I continue to do so. smile The only game 'system' that I have played apart from that is the PC.

Let's make this quick:

1. Despite the console's superior technology, PS3 developers have not gotten a grip on the consoles innards yet and few of the games look better than 360 games.

2. While these developers are trying to get a hold of the PS3, the 360 already has strong titles like Gears, Lost Planet, Bioshock, Saints Row, and Halo 3. All the PS3 delevopers have to show right now is Heavenly Sword, which got average reviews, Motorstorm, Resistance, and Lair (Which was a major dissapointment)

3. The Sixaxis controller is a blatant ripoff of the Wii and doesn't work all that well.

4.The 360 was made Microsoft and therefore has much more multi-media capabilities than the PS3

5. Microsoft is already planning to cut the 360 price a second time, while Sony's price cut was only temporary.

6. Microsoft is going to be able to do alot with the millions and millions they made off Halo 3 sales.

7. Most of all: Riiiiiiiidge Racer!!!!

By the way, I am not a Sony hater, I just don't support the PS3. I love my PSP and was always playing my old PS2.

There's only 2 things 360 have over ps3....

1. The fact that it's got more games (Witch will change in due time.)
2. That the games might be the SLITEST bit better graphics (PS3 makes new updates all the time to update *bleep*, The graphics will take over 360.)

Alright, we all know that 360 has got more games, has more bla bla bla,
BUT
The life of the console is short. You buy a 360, own and play it for 3-6 months, and the Red Ring of Death appears. This has indicated that the hardware has overheated, or in other cases, Hardware Failure.
Because of this, some people say that they are on there 2nd, 3rd or even 4th 360 console.

You obviously don't even own a 360. I've had mine for nearly 2 years and I've never had a Red Ring of Death. There are numerous complaints and problems with the PS3. Buy one before you talk of hardware failure.

There are numerous complaints and problems with the PS3.

My PS2, Same story, I got it Xmas 2001 and now it just sits in the clost cause i got PS3 but it's still working, Coming up 7 years once it hit's Xmas.

I would agree with you on that.My PS2 will be 4 years old within 3 months since new and shows no signs of dying out.

PS3's bulky size did has it's avantage. It has more room to draw in more air to cool its processor than the Xbox 360, which had hardly any space for air to be drawn in>

Every console has its flaws, and you're treating the PS3. Hell, I don't think my 360 is the perfect, but sure like it more than the PS3. Hey Sony, why does your online support suck so much? Why didn't you release Home when the console came out? Why did you wait to fix the major problems? Why can't you design a good controller whose features actually work? Why can't you hold on to half of your "planned" exclusives?

Go in! Go in!

I own all 3 consoles and I have not gotten the RROD yet, For this console war, Its going to be close, but I have always played Playstation, since I was a kid. Anyway, Sony has a long road ahead of them ( Watch e3 2006 ) 360 is great but take a look at this, http://youtube.com/watch?v=cmx5h5Zyk00 Now, please stop arguing over which console is best, I don't want this forum to end up like Youtube.
