I guess I prefer the PS3 because I've always been a Sony guy myself growing up using the PS2 most of the time and then getting use to the PS3. The solo title games that come out for the PS3 also interest me more than their counterparts so that could also be another reason.

I usually stick to Nintendo, but I LOVE my PS2 and Sega Genesis :3

I very rarely play Current-gen Games... I got Wii pretty much for Virtual Console... And Tales of Symphonia 2.

I wouldn't mind getting either of the other 2 consoles... but my major Priorities right now are HG/SS and Fullmetal Alchemist Manga Volumes >.>;

PS3 all the way, eventually it'll just take over the war.

Xbox 360.

Less loading time, bigger HDD, Xbox Live (ok, the PS Store is catching up..), Better exclusives..etc.


I agree though. In a year or 2, the PS3 will start winning the war. It's only a matter of time. For now, the 360 is better. But once the PS Store starts opening up better, and once some REAL games start coming out that will use the CELL processor and Blu-Ray properly, the clear choice will become PS3. Until the next Xbox comes out.

Standard PS3 HDD is 80gb, 360 is atm 20gb iirc.
Besides you can upgrade your PS3 HDD whenever you want because it uses standard laptop hdd, my PS3 is 320GB and I know some people who have 1TB ps3s.

Also "better" exclusives is a matter of opinion and apart for l4d and gears I can't think of that many 360 exclusives i;d class as AAA titles.

It is awesome having a big HDD!

Though, not necessary, but nice =]
Nice post Damz. =]

I am sick of hearing this about Xbox.

As Fox has already said, it's opinion.

But in my opinion, all of the Xbox exclusives are basically the same thing.."Lol Imma shoot you on live lol...OH MY GAHDZ I GET AN ACHIEVEMENTZ CAUSE I HIT A CERTAIN PINT INZ YOUR HEAD LAWLZ."

Wii and PS3 exclusives at least have a range of ideas.

I actually think that the Wii offers the best exclusives...No I'm not talking "Baby Sitting Party" I'm talking "Mario", "Zelda" and "Metroid".

Lost Odyssey, Banjo Nuts and Bolts, Fable 2, Halo Wars (it's an RTS), PGR 3 and 4, Mass Effect, Castle Crashers (and a ton of other XBLA games) would like to have a word with you. And that's just what comes to the top of my head - there are a ton of other non-shooter 360 exclusives. The Xbox was the FPS console, the 360 is the most well-rounded console this gen so far.

Anyway, yeah...the 360 is my favorite current gen console. It has the best online, the best game library (though it shares quite a bit with the PS3), and just in general has more games that I'm interested in.
