^ for real. I remember when all the store were getting rid of all the 64 games for  like 2 bucks. I would buy so many of them. always a classic.

Both ps3 and 360 have pros and cons. Idk both are pretty sick. I might get a 360 though

PS3 is better in my opinion. Dont have to pay to get online and better quality picture and sound. Optical out on sound and better full 1080. Better controllers, safer system. But thats just y opinion.

Just get a decent gaming PC and a steam account, console gaming is silly.

^^^ yes, not this again.  you won't find a straight answer here, if that's what your looking for.  research that shit online, and you'll find much more useful stuff.

honestly just get whatever your friends have. its so much more fun to play with your friends online. i personally have a xbox 360 and i love it. some games can have weird controls on the ps3.

PS3:
Pros: Ps3 has better graphics. Its a blue ray player built in and costs the same as a blue ray player, Uncharted 2 is the best game of all time and is only on ps3. Online is free unlike xpox
Cons: Less Games than xbox

nah, jk. PS3 because it is my personal preference. Find friends who have each one, and try them both - then make an informed decision like i did.

Easy peezy, STOP ASKING THIS FUCKING QUESTION YEEZY

if you play MW2 then get 360 cause the controller is better,
if you dont play MW2 then dont waste your money on either

xbox-more common, runs through microsoft servers, very good and reliable internet connection
ps3-better system all around without a question, online is free, not as many people have it, connection through third party called demonware, not as reliable as microsoft, but still pretty good

I would say ps3 over xbox everyday, its all about what your looking for

surely if it was just about the controller you'd get MW2 for PC.

This is a good idea.
90% of my friends that are younger than me have a 360.
And 90% of my friends that are older than me have a ps3.
ps3 is more of a home entertainment system while xbox is a sit in your little room and play cod all day system IMO
I got a ps3 and thank god for free online gameplay

XBOX 360. Live is kick ass, If you have netflix you can go through your xbox, not to mention projects Natal and Milo are going to be revolutionary

If you want to spend $40 for your movies and watch them in blue-ray, get PS3.

If you want to play video games, get xbox.

the technical specifications of the ps3 make it fucking impossible to develop for which is why it doesn't have any good titles, end of story

they're both really great so go with this option.  Playing with your friends will always make online gaming better.
