Xbox 360 VS Playstation 3. [ 2012 Consoles ]
1. [INTERNET SERVICE]
Playstation 3:
Free, but laggy at times even with a good connection, and
also has major shutdowns due from hackers (Look it up on
google) you can't go into any kind of chat without being
in a game or using PS MOVE. You can get APPS like
(Netflix, and other cool stuff from PSN Store) You can
choose a huge selection of gamer pictures on here, such as
"Avatars"
Xbox 360:
Cost 49.99 for a year, but has great internet service as
in, no hackers since 4 years ago, smooth multiplayer,
party chat, private chat, many apps you can get ( Here is
some examples : Netflix, HULU Plus, Flixter, Zune,
Crackle, and next month they release Internet Explorer)
Also you can get player made games from the indie games
section, same as you can do from PSN. You can also choose
your gamer picture, and you can create your own cool
looking avatar.
2. [HARDWARE]
Playstation 3:
Honestly, Playstation 3 has had some major problems around
2007 - 2008 such as the "Green screen problem" that occurs
randomly when you're playing a game, aslo the problem when
your PS3 stops reading the CD. (Due to the open slit on
the console dust could get inside) The 2012 model has no
problems but they've really made the new model pretty
cheap. You have to use physical buttons instead of the
touch buttons. Also the plastic is cheap and feels like
you can break it pretty easy, and the skin on the PS3 is
plain instead of metallic. PS3's Hardware is built to last
longer for the upcoming games through the years.
Xbox 360:
The Xbox 360 has had some horrible problems during 2006 -
2010 such as the "Red ring of death" that happened
constantly, i had to return my xbox 360. But i have to
admit they where really sorry about the problem i had and
they fixed it for free, and gave me a free 1 month gold
membership. The 2012 Xbox model has no hardware problems
at all it's very quiet and it has touch buttons, and a
very nice look to the console (Like the mettalic look to
it, and the slimness of the console) Xbox 360 has a video
card only meant to last 10 years in the future for the
upcoming games.
3. [GAMES]
Most games usually release on both consoles, but i'm going
to talk about the seperate games for the consoles.
Playstation 3:
PS3 has not really been known for it's games but there has
been some pretty good games (Such as Little Big Planet,
Infamous, Gran Turismo, and Metal Gear Solid) not exacly
great games. But if you're a cheapo like me it might be a
good idea to buy a PS3 (If you're not a huge gamer of
course)
Xbox 360:
Now for some great xbox games. Gears Of War, Left 4 dead
PGR, Kameo, and the best game i came across is Halo. I'm
not exacly a fan of the xbox but i have to admit, Halo CE,
Halo 2, and Halo 3 have the best story to a game i have
EVER played. I thought the Metal Gear Solid story was
fatastic, but honestly it does not compete against Halo's
story.
4.[MOVE VS KINECT] - I'm sorry but i really thought this
would be a good topic to talk about.
Playstation 3:
Playstation move has a built in cam and it has a built in
mic. You have to use a controller for PS MOVE just like
you have to use a controller for the Wii, and i think this
is very stupid for Sony to basicly copy the Wii.
Xbox 360:
Xbox 360 Kinect has a cam, a mic, and a censor that scans
your face to automaticly logs you in to your Xbox profile.
On Kinect you do not need to hold any controller, but
you're available to use props for certain games if you
want to physicly grip something.
5.[CONTROLLERS]
Playstation 3:
PS3's Controller feels very small in adult hands, and the
plastic on it feels like it could break just by gripping
it too had.
Xbox 360: Big enough to fit in adult hands, has a nice
rubber grip on the side, and feels really durable.

Personally, i've had my PS3 since 2007. But since most of
my friends currently own a Xbox 360 i'm most likely going
to switch.

So here is my QUESTION :If you had neither, what would you
choose? - I need to know for a meeting 2 days from now.
