This message is coming from a guy who owns and plays both systems as well as 27 other ones and been playing for 30 years. I am a fanboy of no system so I’m telling you straight because I play games for the games themselves, I don’t play because of a name on the system itself. Sony recently dropped the ps3 price to 299. I will compare it to a 360 elite since its microsofts highest end 360 system and is priced the same as the ps3. Ps3 has built in included wifi connection for wireless internet, the 360 does not. It will cost you another 100 bucks to buy an addon for the 360 to get wifi. (do note ps3 also includes ethernet for a wired internet connection also so you get both). Ps3 has bluetooth and usb ports for flash drives, keyboard, mice, microphones, headsets, earpieces and so on, the 360 has neither nor can you add them on. Ps3 has 100% free online gaming, the 360 charges you a annual fee to play any game online or even have a friends list. Ps3 also has something called Home which is 100% free and optional to use where you make a character and run through a virtual world with other people, chat, check out themed areas like a resident evil 5 area with mini games, trailers playing on big screens, an apartment you get to own and decorate and its constantly being added onto. Think of Home as kind of like The Sims only it a city about games only it has alot of other people in it also with you. I also prefer to ps3 community, 90% of the time I get on xbox live all I hear are a bunch of immature brats cursing and yelling. Ps3 can play blu ray high def movies and has a really good upconvert on dvds, 360 can only play normal dvds and doesnt improve their picture any. Its also kind of cool I can take a movie I download on my pc, stick it on a usb flash drive, plug it into my ps3 and watch it on my bigger tv right off the flash drive. Can pause, fast forward, frame rate change, zoom in and out and use other options like you can on a dvd from the ps3 video menu. Not to mention the ps3 runs dead quiet vs a 360 which is quite loud. And ps3 is known for being a pretty problem free machine while 360 even to this day still suffers from hardware problems, hell gamestop stopped taking extended warranties on them (don’t know if they do again now or not) because so many people were bringing them back with problems. Far as games go both systems have 90% of the exact same games. All big names games like megaman 9, wolfenstein, bioshock 1 & 2, dead rising 2, beatles rock band, ghostbusters, bayonetta, call of duty 4, fallout 3, rock band 5, grand theft auto 4, modern warfare 2, brutal legend, marvel vs capcom 2, batman arkahm asylum, madden 10, assassins creed 2 and so on are on both systems and will continue to be on both. Each year the list of exclusive games gets smaller. But personally the games on the ps3 that are exclusive I like better and have more of a variety to them. Killzone 2, MAG, final fantasy 13 versus, demons souls, uncharted 1 and 2, little big planet, flower, god of war 3, gran turismo 5, super stardust hd, metal gear solid 4, resistance 1 and 2, ratchet and clank a crack in time and tools of destruction, infamous, heavy rain among another dozen titles coming out in the next year that are ps3 only I like better. If you like MMO type games ps3 is only system to announce ones coming out for it, the two being DC universe online and Final Fantasy 14 online. But all big name big production games will be on both systems. And well, I personally like the ps3 controllers better. They feel more comfortable in my hands, the D-Pad is more precise because the 360 d-pad is just a disc and sometimes pushing up registers as left or right, and the batteries are rechargeable in it I that like so when it gets low I just plug in a usb to mini-usb cable in the front of the ps3 and it charges while I play so I don’t have to buy batteries for it, after 2 years of use my controller still holds its charge like it did new. I’m not anti 360, I just prefer my ps3 more, and more or less just get games for my 360 when it’s a exclusive for the 360. Wii I wont go into because after all these years I have found 2 games on it worth owning. Ive spent more time playing gamecube games on my wii than actual wii games. So obviously I would say get more games for your ps3, if you spent 300+ bucks on a new system then all you have is a system and 1 game. Thats 300+ dollars could buy you alot of ps3 games.

Go for the 360 stop resisting your instincts these games are awesome, especially if you have internet.

I think you should get more games 4 ur ps3... because Xbox 360 is not that good...and my friend had to send his off 4 times in 3 months for it to get repaired. ...and nintendo wii is a 'more 4 the family' type console plus loads of new ps3 games recently came out Hope this helped B-) ;) :D

The wii does have classic games but its more for kids a lot of little kid games the 360 is the way to go really now because natal will be coming out soon but its just the best graphics the games everything and you get netflix facebook, twitter, zune, and last.fm on it and the online play is better than ps3 i had my xbox for almost 3 years now never got red lights or any repairs works great

Definitely go with a 360. ive played GTA4 on a ps3 and it looks so horrible. it takes it forever to think and figure out what the characters need to do next. and the wii is just a kids console or for ppl that wana lose weight. dont get it and ive had my 360 since it first came out. still works just fine, and ive never had a problem with it like people say they do

Mass effect and both gears are brilliant games, plus xbox live is fantastic, even if you have to pay for it. Wii is more for playing at parties and not really as a serious console, I would go for the xbox.

I think you should sell your 60GB PS3 and buy a new one and BUY more games because PS3 has more awesome, good quality games.

I thing you should get more games for the the ps3 because it has some crazy fun games. The wii is slow the intrenet has checkboard on it went it loads and you met as well play checker because the thing is going to be the for at least 30 minutes. Like the other kid said it is a family console. X-box is about the same things the both have a store, intrenet, and fun games they both have the same. Except the one you said but in my discuss go with more games for the ps3. add me as a friend. My name ps name is the The Dyez
