If you are a casual gamer who normally plays solo to numerous other players. If you want huger games with incredible graphics If you don't mind the fact that you have to buy a seperate memory stick for limited memory in sacrifice for potentially better game performance offline. If you own a ton of (more tham 15) PS2 and playstation games that you just can't give up. If you love GTA,Final Fantasty,Budokai, and/or Grand Turismo franchises. My Oppinion (not yours) Im not taking anything from the PS3 at all. Its a great game console. The competion with the 360 is fierce. This console provides generally "lussious" grapics and gameplay for many of its games. It also provides backwards compatibility with its past lives like nevfer before. 360 can't do it like Playstation "UNFORTUNATELY"... One sucky current packaging feature is that the harddrive is NOT included. You have to pay at least another 50 bucks to get one. Well thats how it is now, maybe they'll change there package arrangement before the U.S launch. I fell that Sony is has always been a cheapskate with its hardware. Update on PS3-Update #3 The PS3 will have a worldwide realease on November 17th, 2006. This information was realesed at E3 2006 from Sony. |

If you are a serious gamer who normally plays solo or with another person. If you love playing online and have experience with the previous x-box live service. If you love the halo,project gotham,splinter cell and/or DOA franchises. If you want much faster loading times and want alot of memory storage with very good graphics. If you love music and videos and/or processing media. My Opinion (not yours) Me personally, the 360 just sounds simply more impressive than the PS3 in online play. Which is what I like to play for. I tend to play online a few times before I even start to play the offline game itself. It will also have lightning like loading times (well, not really, but natrually faster than PS3). It will also come in more handy with managing media in general. For example, you can create your own music video and send it to friends by riping beats, or creating your own, while dancing in front of your video cam. You can even video cam chat (in which I think personally, is a little too much). So basically, in online features, its just a "no-contest".
