The Xbox 360 has slightly better graphics than the ps3, and Xbox live is better than the psn. but the ps3 has blue ray n better exclusives (i think... tho none beats halo 3 :p)and would never die on you if you buy a good console.

Ive got an xbox 360, havent had an problems. it jus depends on you.
Re: PS3 Vs Xbox360 Which Is Better? by Ndata(m): 3:53pm On Aug 05, 2013
Xbox 360 has the latest addition to it called "Kinect" with this you don't need to use your controller to play some game rather with Kinect sensor you use your body to play games.I find this quite exciting.

Lol dude not all games support kinect and those that support them, i'm sure, are not his cup of tea. Besides kinect isn't very accurate and has it's problems. I like xbox buh i'll strongly advice he goes for the ps3 due to more exciting exclusives (i hate uncharted tho) and knowing sony, they'll support their console for a long tym to come.

And do you have a problem with comprehension?Did you not read the part i stated that some games support Kinect or did you choose to ignore that.The guy is trying to make a choice between getting a ps3 and xbox 360 and we are only giving advice.Just drop your advice and walk.This is how you guys fail your Jamb exams.

oh sorry mate, didn't see that part. My main gripe tho is that he might not like the games that are kinect related. Besides ps3 also has the move and it more accurate than the kinect, albeit involving a physical controller like the wii mote.
Jam exams? Dude, I have a 1st class degree, and about to pursue my masters in education psychology, and another degree in computer science. Besides, i'm in Ghana, we don't write jam exams. Don't jux yap away.

The Xbox is better... Graphics game play and features... Although I prefer the ps3 pad for fighting and football... I still need to get use to the pad on xbox. Other than that the Xbox is the better system.

hey take it easy... Xbox have better GPU and ram. Xbox can't even use its full potential because no bluray so developers have to sacrifice quality for space on disk.

I have both system and gaming on Xbox is better overall. I have also preorder the Xbox one because its features and how Microsoft update the Xbox constantly.
Though ps4 is 25k cheaper but I prefer the features of the Xbox.

the xbox one does what the ps4 will dream of doing... it is not even less powerful. specs on paper is not the decider on performance... the ps3 was said to be alot more powerful than xbox 360... yet it cant do simple things like play music while gaming.

I am going for the xbox one because it has 2 times the features of what sony has to offer.

about the cost... i dont think its more expensive. the kinect make it 420 pounds... but its a 8 to 10 investment so its not that bad. i just hope they deliver it on the release day to my house.

Dude calm down. Most of ps3 games are very linear like God of war and uncharted. It's easier to make very linear games look good. Gears of war 3 graphics and uc3 are on par. I get it if u dnt like the art style but art style doesn't equate better graphics. Plus the gpu in the 360 is much more efficient in rendering games than that of the ps3. And in games the gpu is more important than cpu, tho the cell is capable of gpu stuff (infact , it is the only thing giving the ps3 a saving grace). i hope this helps.

not rly true. It doesn't matter if the blue ray can carry more textures and other graphical asserts, cos if the gpu can't render it, it wouldn't be of any use. I can't say for a fact that the 360 architechture hasn't been fully utilised or not, buh i can say for a fact that if hasn't, it's not becos of the lack of blu ray. Bluray was good for uncompressed vids and audio in the case of the ps3. Besides it was soo slow some games required a mandatory installationto play. Hope this info helps.

Look its not a bad example... I am saying when Sony say their specs on paper doesn't mean its more powerful. Microsoft is a software company that can get more from a machine than Sony will ever get.

The tech behind Xbox one is an example... Direct x... Running on windows nt kernel have 3 OS at same time... Have cloud computing for calculating background stuff etc.

The ps3 was so powerful on papers but it can't do half of what Xbox was doing... I used smart glass with it and many more. Games looks better on Xbox run smooter. Am not a can of single player games... I can manage GTA COD BF FIFA Tekken. That's all. I dont go about buying exclusive games all the time. I need forza too... Its alot better than GT now.

I live in the UK and using Xbox live alone will make you think twice of Sony.

its not Microsoft fault that Sony can't do what Xbox can... Calling them microscam shows how fanboyisb and blind you are. Sony brag how their system was a better media all in one gaming system because of only them have bluray this generation. Now ms have better features you are talking BS.

Does the media box stops you for playing games or you can do more with it... Think of pluging your dstv to Xbox and integrate both to work together. Talk to your dstv etc.

You just a blind guy.
you are a Nigerian stop talking like a fool... Or those fanboys in ign... How has Microsoft treat you?

I bet Sony is loosing money from ps3 because of people like you who install homebrew on their PS and pirate cds... Sony did not make any profit from PS 3 thanks to people like you. And Microsoft is trying to help developers you are saying rubbish. You dont even think before you spit BS

where did i say it wasn't? And the ram are both 512mb, only problem is that the ps3's ram is split between the cpu and the gpu while that of the 360 is a single pool. so the appropriate allocations can be done depending on the dev for optimum performance. Oh plus the extra 10mb esram in the 360. the xdr ram on the ps3 however is faster though, but it doesn't matter anyways.

Hold on, I think we're misunderstanding each other here. I don't disagree that the xbox 360 is much more efficient for gaming. Even john Carmack, a renowned programmer, co founder of id software chose the 360 over the ps3 for it easier and efficient architecture. Google him.
ps: The initial post you quoted was about the lack of blu ray on the xbox 360 which supposedly was the reason why the 360 hardware wasn't fully utilised. I was simply debunking that assertion with a link and all. Blu ray is only good for movies and 7.1 lossless audio which 90% don't even have. I'm just saying that however big the storage is, if the hardware can't render the graphical asserts on it, then it useless. This means that even if the xbox 360 had a blu ray drive, it's hardware can only render what it is capable of rendering and nothing more. The only advantage it'll have is high quality cutscenes and 7.1 lossless audio (for the audiophiles) nothing more. See the case of the ps3 and blu ray for reference. It isn't outputting any better graphics than it's hardware would allow it (even with xbox beating it out in most multiplatform games even though it is using a common dvd 9 9gb). Blu ray is just a storage device. It isn't a magical dust that makes games look magically better than they're supposed to like Sony made us believe. But at least, with that deception they won the format war. I hope you get me now
