Give me 5 reasons why the 360 is better other than it has more games, and I will eat my hat
1 - All format games run better on the 360, and indeed are released sooner than the PS3 (example Orange Box) and the graphics in general are higher quality on the 360. Good examples are Skate and Assassins Creed which I find run smoothly on the 360 but would glitch and chug on the PS3, like low quality ports.
2 - Games are generally cheaper on the 360, espeically brand new titles on the highstreet
3 - Even though live costs money, its more immersive with the headset which comes with the console, and the community is much larger meaning you can play with more people more often. Its great to be able to chat to people, friend and randoms. On the PS3, I couldnt do this, at least not out of the box.
4 - the control pad has better functionality such as useable triggers which has the correct ergonomics, and also rumble feedback
5 - Live Store is far better than PSNetwork store, in terms of breadth of content. You can also download movies now which is cool.
I am completely unbiased, as I said I like sony consoles but the PS3 is a lemon.
theres 5 to start with tho for Pro 360
Pro Ps3
- wireless as standard
- Plays BluRay (but I personally wouldnt take advantage of this as the discs are expensive and I have loads of DVDs)
- Bigger upgradeable harddrive
Personally thats all I see as the advantages of the PS3.
