Help me decide between 360 and ps3

They weren't thinking anything... they designed an elaborate curved controller at the start but then scrapped it before it went on sale. So they went back to the original PS1/PS2 design with a few extra features and wireless function. So technically they didn't redesign the ergonomics whatsoever. Since they did attempt a redesign i'm sure PS4 will have another attempted controller redesign, but imo I think they made a good choice going back to the original design than use the curved one which had some flaws.

It's not the controller itself I have a problem with, well other than it previously having no weight to it which was solved when you introduced dual shock 3, it's the triggers, there is no reason for them to be convex, after dual shock 3 the PS3 controller would of been perfectly fine if they just shipped controllers with concave triggers instead, hopefully they rethink that for the PS3, other than that the controller itself is currently fine.

The thing many people don't know is you CAN play music ingame; just the developer of the game has to decide whether to allow it or not and you'll find most don't want their own sounds being overrun by music. The ps3 is perfectly able to play music whilst ingame. An example of this is Motorstorm Pacific Rift, and the devs confirmed the upcoming apocolypse will also allow it.

Sorry about that - I do not actually own either console at the moment, so can only get the facts from other sources

hi i'm jin and i have more money than sense.

I am bethie, I should probably get a better job.

If games weren't exclusive to consoles then I wouldn't bother.

Far Cry, DOA, Fable, gears of war, halo, Uncharted 2, GT5 all games I want to play, all games exclusive to both consoles.

Lol @ the first bit

It's a shame some of those games are exclusive to Xbox tbh but oh well. Add me on ps3 online when you get it.

Both are lame. Nintendo 64 is where it's at.

Have to agree with this.

Unfortunately, no. SNES and the Atari are where it is at.

Pong, just sayin'.

I'd get a PS3 if I was you, you get free online, better graphics and a few exclusives like Gran Turismo 5 and Little Big Planet 2. Also, PS3s are tanks, I've had mine since release date and it's still going strong.

Up to you though, see what your friends play the most.

I'd recommend PS3. All this rubbish about Xbox live being better is, in my opinion a load of rubbish! I used to own a 360 and found the whole thing overly complicated and unneccecary compared to the PS3 where you just load up a game and your set to play online. PS3 has far better exclusive games in my opinion such as Uncharted, GT5, LBP amongst many others as well.
