[Mellotron]

I'm well aware of what the PS3 can do. I think most people are.

I know what Unreal Engine 3 is. I'm happy for you to be the geekier of us two though. I don't think I'm so knowledgeable, that's why I keep using external sources rather than my own word. So far you have used none, so I'm having to go on your word only whereas I have provided you with tonnes of stats, facts, evidence and opinion of those far more in the know than me or you.

I have played most of those games. Loved WipEout. I have mentioned it before but I will say it again. I loved PSOne. I loved PS2. PS2 shat all over Xbox original. There is no bias here from me.

Again I explained (using MetaCritic) that the general consensus is that Xbox360 has a stronger line up (ie better gameplay). MetaCritic takes reviews from all publications, all platforms. So it is entirely neutral, and covers all professional opinions of games.

Yes Killzone 2 has very good graphics, that doesn't change the FACTS I posted regarding Xbox360 generally being agreed to be graphically superior.

Noise? Fair enough, I never actually hear the Xbox360 running because I have the games running, but I can accept that it is the louder of the two. Reliability? You have got me there. It is less reliable. I have had no problems with mine but I've enough stories to know it IS less reliable. However everyone I know who've had problems have encountered fantastic support from Microsoft, a new console within 5 days in one case, along with 3 months free Xbox LIVE.

Your PC World article is a pretty laughable fact, some guy ive never heard of seems to know exactly what is going on inside Rockstar, and the exact reasons for the delay, it was no more than speculation, Rockstar stated there were Technical Difficulties which in no way translates into the PS3 not being able to handle the graphics.

A guy from Rockstar came out regarding it. I grabbed the first article I found because there are literally tonnes all saying it.

Obviously the guy from Rockstar cannot come out and badmouth Sony's hardware, that would be the end of the relationship there and then. Bit naive. However if you compare the tech of the two consoles (and numerous graphics test which you can find online) Xbox360 is known for having a more powerful graphics capacity.

PS3 has more powerful overall tech, but I feel they're only just starting to realise the potential of such now, and perhaps it's too little too late?

Why do all XBOX/PS3 threads turn into binfest's may I ask?
If you just want a console that does all the basics well then 360 is the best option, if your a techy type then PS3 Is better option all be it a few hundred quid more.

It's like Mac/PC, iPhone/Any other phones. Techies like to think they always know best when it comes to their gear.

You have roughly put it right though. Xbox360 is the best at games. PS3 is the best at everything except games. and Sky.

If all you want to do is play multi platform games that run at about a1fps faster go ahead and get an xbox, if you want killer exclusives plus all of those multiplatform games, buy a playstation

I'm not even fussed about the graphical stuff, I was just answering back to claims from PS3 owners.

And killer exclusives?

Mass Effect 1 & 2
Left4Dead (on PC, not PS3)
Gears of War 1 & 2
Halo 3
BioShock until VERY recently.
Oblivion
Fable 2

and plenty more.

No way have I got the energy for that one.

May I just ad from an unbiased position seen as I have both, 360 on-line play is far, far superior to the PS3.
Sure the PS3 has all the gadgets ect, but they are games consoles and are primarily made to play games, and for the price I don't think the gap, game play wise is that big, if anything.

 

[SUIYHP]

360 is only suprerior online, but the PS3's free online makes up for that, plus reliablility, they are practically tied on anything else.

Thing is though, Xbox360 is £200 odd cheaper, so the PS3 SHOULD be better than it.

Sony has blu-ray, HD-DVD lost the war, you're not going to get MGS4, Kojima has already stated that 360 simply couldn't and can't handle the depth of the game. You listed a few games that were now being lost as Sony exclusives, you mentioned Gran Turismo as one of them, i'm telling you, as a fact, that GT5 isn't coming to 360.

Then again how about Bluetooth
Multi-types of flash memory slots (SD, memory stick etc)
Built in Wi-fi, which 360 couldn't even manage for a while.
Playstation 3's are £300, i don't think you can buy a 360 with everything the ps3 has to offer for the same amount.

In reference to the online superiority, if you want to take a look back, Microsoft has been using LIVE since the original XBOX, this is Sonys first outing, they are totally new to it as opposed to 360, and its free, quite simply, you get what you pay for, and im happy with that, and so are the majority of ps3'ers, what about when the time comes for blu-ray to be needed in 360's? You're all going to feed the M$ machine with more money because they picked the losing format?

 

[Mellotron]

Not really losing though is it?

Check the sales charts, Xbox360 is mullering PS3 pretty much everywhere.

 

[bhafc22]

Really? I wasn't aware HD-DVD even existed anymore.
