I finally saved up enough money to buy one of these awesome consoles, however I'm having trouble deciding whether to get the ps3 or the xbox360. So which is a better console for me to get?

[Ginger]

PS3 allllll the way, because you can do more with one than you can with a 360. You don't have to pay extra $ every month to play online if you have a ps3.

[Chocolate]

okay, in terms of games are they pretty much the same? I like playing fantasy/rpg/adventure games, i dont mind fps either :)

[Serra Britt]

I think there's a lot of good games on both consoles. I may have to side with Ginger though, if you plan to be online much the PS3 is free while the Xbox360 you have to pay to get most of the online features.

Well, if you want to play online, like others have said, definitely get the PS3 since it's free.

Other than that I would check out exclusives and see if either console has more exclusives that you'd be interested in.

Personally I have a 360 (which I went with because it was cheaper, to be honest), and I pretty much like the same kind of games, even though I'm only just slowly getting into the FPS genre now. :3

[Chocolate]

oh okay is the only difference between them two is the online features? besides that its basically the same?

I'd mention the RROD, but my PS3 suffered the Yellow Light of Death around the same time in its lifespan that my 360 died, so neither one is perfect. Though, I got a new XBOX for free, while I had to buy a new PS3... I don't know if they still have that policy, though, since this was several years ago.

On the games front, if you like JRPGs in particular, I'd suggest the PS3. Those don't come to the XBOX as frequently, and the PS3 gets nearly all the FPS's, too. Western RPGs, on the other hand, ted to come out for both. That isn't to say there aren't good JRPGs on the XBOX, though, some are even exclusive to it.

Well for me i love both system each have their strengths and weaknesses but i feel xbox is overall a slightly bit stronger over in a few areas. For one its online is more stable -.- *a month plus of PSN being down due to the hacking*. Plus it has a larger game library. Playstaion has the free internet built in hard drive as well as wireless adapter along with quirky JRPGs and more Japanese games in general

[Suzerain of Sheol]

Oh, Chocolate, also, if you're interested in suggestions for RPGs on either system, let me know, those are my favorite genre as well and I have quite a few.

☪ஐﻬ☽ Well for game wise. Both have some RPGs but to me the 360
has the better ones. They have Dragon Age, Elder Scrolls, Lost Odessey,
and those are some of the most amazing games ever made.

Dragon Age and Oblivion/Skyrim are multi-platform. Lost Odyssey is, indeed, 360-exclusive, but I wouldn't say it's something to buy the console over. Had one of the best-written RPG stories ever, true, but I (personally) found the gameplay to be a little stale.

Other 360-exclusive RPGs I can think of are Spectral Force 3 and Infinite Undiscovery, which were both decent/good, but there's just as good on the PS3. The PS3 gets Nippon Ichi and Idea Factory's games exclusive, which if you like JRPGs, are among the best (though they definitely emphasize the "J").

[DragonDrifter]

I'd go with PS3. All in all it has free online, some Famous and amazing exclusives (Uncharted Series, God Of War series, Killzones, Resistances), but also I just like the setup better, and I think the Playstation Store is more convenient. But if you're going for variety in downloadables, go with XBOX360. They have old arcade games, old JRPGs, Indies, etc. I prefer the PS3 but do whatever you think is best.

[Wedding Peach]

If you want a console that has allot of exclusive video games, go with PlayStation 3. If you want a console with exclusives that can not be gotten on PlayStation 3, go with Xbox 360.

I personally would go with the PlayStation 3 because it has more exclusives than Xbox 360, along with video games for PlayStation 3 that are available for both consoles; however allot of Xbox 360 players may overlook the PlayStation 3 exclusives and consider them nothing special.

Allot of Xbox 360 players may also consider the PlayStation 3 version of video games that are available on both consoles, not as good as the Xbox 360 version.

[Leirana]

Well, in my opinions, I prefer the XBox 360 better, but that's just me personally. I enjoy the games on the 360 better than some of the games on PS3. I guess there's also the kinect so I lean toward the xbox ^^;;. It's true that you have to pay monthly to go online(to be honest, I must admit this sucks) I still think the xbox is better ^^

[Suzerain of Sheol]

Oh, I forgot, the 360 has the Last Remnant, too. Did that ever get ported to the PS3? Was a pretty cool game, I only got about halfway through, though.
