I love the PS3!

[syko2006]

Here I am, writing this on my bro's ps3. The internet browser is very good, but it's small, and Habbo doesn't work but who cares when you're on a PS3! Any questions i will answer (To those who dont have a PS3) as much as I can! Thanks for reading!

[dj-sxtt]

Btw you can go on youtube on your PS3 thats pretty cool xD

[syko2006]

Yes, and you can go on Youtube, it's great!

[Mario]

a new fanboy is born, and stop spamming to get your post up.

[Jibbish]

no matter how ultra awesome it is dont post about it lol

[Kardan]

I'm not impressed with mine :$

[mangle]

Why so Aiden!

[Kardan]

Why so Aiden!

I just think my 360 is much better, but that's probably because I just use it more and have more games on it... I find the PS3 controller too small anyway.

[Fez]

THEN YOU MUST HAVE BIG HANDS

You get used to the controller, the 360 controller weighs a billion pounds when I hold it lmao

[mangle]

Well its perfect weight for me :)

They're sturdy as hell as well.

[Fez]

Both are, you just get used to one of them and the other feels really different.

[Cisse9]

owning both consoles i proberly recommend the xbox 360 the online is better and just more people go on xbox live because of the price of the ps3.

you have both consoles? wow :O

[mangle]

He has all 3.

[Naruto!]

yeah i got a ps3 for christmas and then i bought xbox around may, out of the wii, xbox and ps3. I'd have to say the order is 360, wii then ps3 :rolleyes::$

[Fez]

Well of course there is, more people owning 360s = bigger community

I say you should get a 360 for the community and online experince
Get a PS3 if you want nice healthy big juicy games

[mangle]

And the 360 doesn't have them?

[cocaine]

He has all 3.

all three? 360, PS3 and... wii im guessing?

[mangle]

Yup, the three main consoles. That is if you don't class the PC as a "console" :)

[Fez]

Well of course it has them, same as the PS3 has online, we do big juicy games better, you do onlineness better.

[Misawa]

The online comparison does not bother me. I've never had any lag with my PS3, always been a part of busy games, text and video/audio is chat is fine for me too. We have the store, and Home is coming out soon. I believe the PlayStation 3 is still the biggest selling console in Europe, or the UK at least, and since online play usually localises games to the player's country, I've never seen any gaming ghost towns, so to speak.

[Zabuza]

you can go on youtube on yer wii too hah.
if i got a ps3 id probably demand it in gold or something to make it worth the money:D

However you don't own a 360?

[Misawa]

I do, yes.

Maybe a coinsidence, but one of the reasons I don't want a 360 is because of the ten tonne controller.

[mangle]

Its not that heavy once you get used to it, took me a few hours to get used to it.

[Gangster]

Wow, whenever i make posts on the PS3 i cba to do capital letters. :D.

On topic: The the graphics are good too, especially on HDTV.

[Frodo13.]

I've played on the 360 loads of times, and I can't get used to it. It just so big and bulky. But then again, I have been used to the Playstation controller for about 10 years, however I also have a Wii and I got used to that controller straight away.

[Misawa]

The 360's controller is very bulky, and it is weighty with the battery pack. Also, the microphone sucks. You have to shout for anyone to hear you, and the quality is terrible.

360's controller is absolutley fine unless you're a complete weed with no muscle. And also, my headset is perfect, so it must be your own connection issues with it.

[Misawa]

No, the quality is persistent with friends' consoles.

And no, the controller is by no means difficult to lift :rolleyes:, it is just unnecessarily weighty.

[Neil]

It doesn't matter, both have good and bad points, 360 users don't like PS3 controllers because they're too light and/or small, PS3 owners don't like 360 controllers because they weigh "10 tonnes" :rolleyes:

Personally I think both controllers are fine, Sony shouldn't of bothered with the triggers though, they failed

The 360 mic isn't that bad, I can talk and my friends hear me fine, same for my friends talking and me hearing them

Also Purple, you are turning into a massive fanboy, the PS3 doesn't have "bigger juicy games" they're about the same, if you think about it, you're not getting more gameplay, you're getting better graphics, this extra space on the disks isn't making the game any longer at this point in time

[cocaine]

Ok well mine and my mates headsets are perfect, and I find the controllers to be perfect.

I'm afraid to say but I agree with everything you have just said.

oh noes, I dun wunna sound like a small minded drone :(
:(

I've been try to say it, but my tainted fanboyish babble has held me down. Each of the 3 consoles are like ice cream, you do always have a favourite flavour. Each has + points and each has - points as you said.

Please forgive my fanboyish rambles, guys.


The controller is unnecessarily heavy

I tried out a Dualshock 3 the other day, same weight as a 360 controller

They use the 360 controller in the army for controlling numerous things, they use them because they have more buttons that they can use to control whatever it is they are controlling. I own a PS3 and I think the controller is much more simple to use and lighter/comfier. I have gone from a PS3 fanboy to liking both of them almost the same, I will always be a playstation fan though. :)

80GB Launched tomorrow, I'll be seeing if I can get any cheap.

There are very few games that are taking advantage of this extra space, most of your exclusive games have either done badly - Haze/Lair or done alright - R:FOM MGS4. Most of your exclusives have been ported though, Alan Wake, Strangehold etc etc.

[Fez]

MGS4's claim of filling 50GB of a blu-ray is laughable, the game is only 12 hours long and when I downloaded the MGO beta, twas only 768 MB with 2 maps. The only reason I can think of filling it up is the environments and weather effects, that Octocamo probably takes up a couple of gigs of space.

The only game I've thought of, which could really take advantage of blu-ray storage, is FFXIII, but thats 360 now so we might get the same planned 130 hour game or a downgraded version to make it fair, so it can fit on a 360 DVD disc.

I dunno if we'll see games harnessing the power of PS3 until another 2-3 years or so. Blu-ray WILL evolve, but not for another few years or so.

I personally think the PS3 has more good exclusives then bad ones. I can only think of a couple of bad ones, however Uncharted, Resistance, Motorstorm, MGS4, Warhawk, Rachet and Clank are probably some of the best games out at the moment.

And Neil, I don't think your in any position to be calling anyone a fanboy, despite what you and other forum members say, I remain defiant in my opinion that you are perhaps the biggest fanboy on this forum.

[Kardan]

all three? 360, PS3 and... wii im guessing?

Yup, got my Wii cable today - so all three are working again :)

Out of the three; the Wii is best for local multiplayer
360 is better for online multiplayer
PS3 has the better graphics, at least, on my crappy TV it has :)

[Antallica]

Im getting a ps3 next weekend.

And a HDTV. (:

Mum And Dad are spoiling me HAHAH.

So yeah, i've played on my mates consoles (Xbox360&Ps3)
And i must say i've always been a playstation fan.
The controls just kinda cheese me off on xbox 360, not used to them.

but by the gameplay & graphics of the ps3. I love it to be honest, im not just saying that because im getting one, its just my personal favourite.

Bad thing is with it though, you dont get a free headset with the ps3.
In the argos theres one for 25 quid. just a earpiece. Might aswell go with that :P

[Misawa]

Just get any USB microphone, they all are compatible. There are plenty under 25 around!

[Southe,]

Got mine today £310 for 80gb and gta4

Took a while to get it all setup and updated.. then 1st thign i wanted was the naruto ninja storm demo which took about 1hr and a half.. worth the wait tho. havent played gta4 yet lol.

[Misawa]

A demo took you an hour and a half? You must have a really bad connection?
