Graeme_RFC 10 Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Got both, Xbox 360 elite & PS3 SlimBoth have their good and bad points Prefer PS3 for FPS games and Xbox for racing games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuirhouseBear 291 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Good point Graeme about the racing games! They are fantastic on Xbox because the triggers are proper triggers and not shitty ones on PS3 which is why i prefer it for FPS games as well. Shooting on cod is so much easier on xbox compared to PS3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace 3,556 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 My boy had an Xbox 360 & traded it in, along with all his games & accessroies and purchased a PS3.I also have a PS3 but i'm not a fanboy of either console.I like the PS3 because not only is it a very good games console (no problems with it yet .. i had to return my boys Xbox THREE times over a year) but it is also my main Blue-Ray player as it is a far better quality than my dedicated Sony player.

MuirhouseBear 291 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I bought an xbox as soon as they came out and had to send it away once. They sent me a brand new console and I've had it a year now and no problems whatsoever. The new consoles are alot better and more reliable than the older ones.

radlord 24 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 get witever your mates have so you can play them onlineThts the best thing he can doThis. Though if this doesn't matter to you then you'd be as well getting the console with superior versions of all multiformat games, which is still the 360.

j1mgg 3,766 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 You will only ever get people opinions on this.As for controllers for certains games, then you are only going to be use to the ones you have had previously.or the ps3 the pro are reliability and everything is built in, so once you buy it you dont have to buy anything else. I only use it for playing games and is connected wirelessly. The fact it has a blu ray drive would be good if developers developed games for consoles independently, but they dont. The maximum disc space of 50gb will never be utilised until the xbox gets a blu ray drive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
