I own both of those systems, and I'm a believer that you should probably buy the one that has the most games that you would actually want to play. The PS3 is more expensive but is also more attractive as an all-around entertainment unit because it has blu-ray built in and wireless internet capability built in (60 or 80 gb version) and includes a web browser and free online play if you are into that. Microsofts XBOX 360, on the other hand is cheaper, has a much larger library of available games, and a more active online service. The catch with Microsoft's setup is that if you want anything extra like the PS3 has, it is going to cost you. An HD-DVD add-on player runs about 170.00 and a wireless internet adapter costs about 100.00. Microsoft's xbox live online service costs money also- 50.00 per year. All those features are cool but what it really comes down to is the games. What kind of games do you like? You said you werent big on Halo so Im guessing you arent a fan of first-person shooters. Do you like fighting games? XBOX 360 has Dead or Alive 4 and will soon be getting Virtua Fighter 5 with online capabilities. PS3 has Tekken 5 and most likely get Tekken 6 exclusively. Both systems will get Soul Calibur 4. Personally I'm a fan of adventure type games, and in this category it's a toss-up. Heavenly sword was recently released for PS3, and although short, it's a beautiful game. While feeling a bit similar to the God Of War series, it still stands on its own merits and delivers an almost movie-like experience. Great game. There are alot more of these third-person action/adventure style games coming soon, for both systems, with Assasin's creed, Devil may cry 4, Kane and Lynch, etc. What kind of games do you play? That's what it really comes down to. |
