    I was just wondering whether people liked the Xbox 360 or the Playstation 3 better, my personal opinion is that the Xbox 360 is better than the Playstation 3 in so many ways, the only thing that is better on the PS3 is that you don't have to pay to go online.

    please feel free to tell me what you prefer...

    I like them both equally i feel. Here's why in general.

    PS3 - Fantastic machine and i absolutely loved the PS2 over the original xbox, i was also a complete sony fanboy when the PS3 first launched however i've changed my views. For kickoff, the game library available at the moment isn't all that great for sony, i'm fully aware thats changing these days what with Uncharted 2, White Knight, inFAMOUS and enhanced versions of previous 360 only games like Eternal Sonata and Tales of Vesparia.

    The best games for me that have hit the console are KillZone2, Uncharted, and Valkyria Chronicles (Stunning Game). However there are more in quantity available for the 360 although in truth quality over quantity right? Aside from this i feel the online is lacking in some aspects and i can't help but feel like i'm playing a single player machine if that makes any sense to anyone heh ;D I think its a brilliant console however needs more time to get the games out there.

    Xbox360 - A massive collection of games available for this format and while not all brilliant there's definitely enough decent games out there to keep you going. As it currently stands there's more RPG's available too which sways me massively as i love RPG's (hence the love of the PS2). While you have to pay for the online service it is much better and there is much more of a community that you feel apart of.

    Another thing that i like the 360 for from a purely piracy perspective is that you can flash the system and hence play backups. For those with little cash or just plain cheap people like me this is fantastic it means i get to play alot more games than i originally would and get more for my moneys worth, of course if a game is truly good i will most likely buy it to show appreciation and all that :D The biggest thing i don't like about the 360 is microsoft itself and the hardware. I've had 3 consoles so far due to system errors and my latest one fixed by a friend twice, its horrendous. I also hate the fanboys that follow and love halo when its a pile of shit imo.

    That's my 2 cents anyhow :)
