    I think the choice should be made with the actual games as the biggest consideration. You can watch Puck and Gunny argue it out again :slap: but at least you'll get some game ideas :ha:

    I'd take some time to look at what games you like, and think you'll like. Then see if they are on both systems, or just one. It's not a very easy decision imo. I have the 360 and will probably get the PS3 someday :bonk2:

    ^ Like I said, if he likes shooters, get a 360.

    I never said it was the Ps3's fault
    the fact remains ... Ps3 ports are inferior to their 360 brothers
    the situation was similar with ps2 ports

    that's due to the complexity of coding, which will result in fewer titles released overall

    the new chipsets and heatsink replacements should reduce that figure to single digits

    I can't wait for my Legendary Edition Halo3 to arrive
    if it doesn't get past the point where I got it stuck when I rented the standard edition, I'll be calling MS for a new console



    Gunny, you can't convince me of anything on this topic
    I've got both of the consoles, and the 360 gets MUCH more work
    I haven't had a single issue since my launch-box was replaced

    That's just an oversimplification. There are many good sports, racing, and rpg games. Some exclusive, some not.

    I'm not trying to convince you of anything.

    Those are the facts.

    What you play more is irrelevant.

    PS3 has a better variety.
    360 has shooters.

    It's the way it has been with Sony and Microsoft.

    By the way, outside of EA ports, what ones have been inferior?
    And developers will figure out the so called complex code (except EA who just don't care).

    It's a fact. Look at the 360 top reviews, most are shooters.

    Non-exclusive games are really moot in this type of discussion as you can get them on both systems.

    "skilled players will probably finish the game in a little more than six hours, and it probably won't take longer than eight hours for anyone else. "
    "So short it can be finished in an afternoon - Not enough variety to the bad guys' design and attacks - Some bosses feel a little cheap."

    not very good investments for consumers

    Uncharted - Game ranking 89%

    Heavenly Sword - Game ranking 81%

    Get a worldwide view instead of one view.

    And Great games are good investments. Halo and Gears of War are even shorter than Heavenly and Uncharted. If you want a game thats last ages, get Tetris.

    OK, that's enough
    I just wanted to show you that there is PLENTY of variety on the Xbox 360
    I intentionally omitted all shooters from this list

    including Shooters would add excellent games like
    Bioshock
    Gears of War
    Halo 3
    Prey
    Perfect Dark Zero
    Undertow
    -to name a few
