1lanother Dumb guy in da house.
kindly check the links i gave out before u talk trash.
360 and ps3 GPU is both 3.2Ghz dude.
peace.

Vowiski
Neither the 360 or PS3 GPU is anywhere near 3.2Ghz. No GPU in the world is clocked even half that high. please do some research and have the grace to apologize when you come back.

Now, to your links.
the PS3 outsold the xbox 360, just for this month, but that's no-doubt helped by xbox 360 shortages (xbox 360 sold hundreds of thousands of units more than the Ps3 during the crucial december holidays)
Far more worrying to Sony is the low attach rate, with only one PS3 game in the top 10. COD4 on the xbox 360 was the highest on that list for 3 months in a row.

Here's the rub

December 2007 NPD hardware sales

HW Sales
System December 2007, Annual 2007
PlayStation 2 1.1 million, 3.97 million
[b]PlayStation 3 797.6 K, 2.56 million
PlayStation Portable 1.06 million, 3.82 million
Xbox 360 1.26 million, 4.62 million
Wii 1.35 million, 6.29 million
Nintendo DS 2.47 million, 8.50 million

The xbox 360 sold 1.26 mil to the PS3s 790k units in December. Hence the shortage of 360s available. that's why the PS3 outsold the 360 for the first time ever.

.sorry i meant CPU not GPU.
PS3 GPU - - NVIDIA SCEI RSX
xbox 360 - - ATI Xenos

REPORT SAYS 17% of XBOX 360 WOULD FAIL COMPARED to PS3 and Wii 3%.
link:  http://mobile.gamepro.com/htmlsite/html_article.php?id=

that percentage of failure rate started way back in 2005. it still doesnt stop the 360 from being the top dog.

ps3 overheats too.

keep talking!

PS3 multi-core Cell processor is clocked at 3.2 GHz. and the Xbox 360's Xenon has three cores and is also clocked at 3.2 GHz.

Both consoles have a total of 512 MB of RAM,

Sony gets a little advantage with a 550 MHz GPU compared to the 500 MHz of the 360.

PS3 can perform 1.8 TFLOPS (tera Floating Point Operations per Second), whereas the 360 can perform 1.0 TFLOPS,

The PS3 has HDMI out for digital output in 1080p, and Blu-ray discs can potentially store more than 20 times more data than the Xbox 360 DVD drive.,

@vowiski

creep. and who told you all that teraflop is going to matter a great deal in games? ps3 has one general purpose core and 7 single threaded specialist spes. xbox360 has 3 multi threaded (2 hardware threads per core) general purpose cores so in effect 360 has 6 general purpose cores to ps3's one general purpose core. single threaded single purpose cores are not as flexible or even useful in realworld terms as general purpose units. your spe's can't run Office, if needs be, but the cores in 360 can if office was designed to run on a powerpc architecture. but does all this mean anything? not diddly squat. ps3 and xbox360 are many times more powerful than the wii but guess which sold better?

listen. the Emotion Engine GSX of the ps2 was hyped to render realtime toy story level graphics, it didnt even come close. yet it sold millions of units. current gen consoles are exponentially more powerful than the ps2 and the original xbvox, but all that power doesnt leapfrog graphics or game play exponentially above the previous gen. lots of games on both ps3 and 360, without HD, look only slightly better than previous gen, and they play similarly too. so wheres the toy story graphics with all the teraflops you quote? developers want ganes to closely mirror the level of CG detail in movies and pixar's works but sadly no affordable console in the next five years can achieve that feat. it took 4 years to make toy story, 3 years to make shrek, and those are pre-rendered videos, not realtime graphics which require more powerful hardware for the same graphical detail. it took an average of 3 hours on extremely powerful computers to render ONE SCENE in toy story. its over 100,000 frames over 77 minutes took 36 computer years. and yet they hope to someday achieve that on games.

only the wii offered something new in terms of gameplay. so its not how much power. if it was power the N64 could have been the dog's bollocks ovet the ps1. or the original xbox could have been king of the hill, not ps2. and ps3 could have been top dog not wii (closely followed by the 360).

face it, dude, our graphical expectations have been squashed. they sell us bloated specs that don't mean much and watch us flame each other while they count their milllions. my advice is, since most games are going multiplatform, buy the console you ca afford. the difference between ps3 and 360 is superficial enough to be almost negligible.

oh, and they say 360 gpu has better power because of its memory architecture. and its unified shader architecture.

boring!
sure u dont have any idea of what u re saying. you just wana post something.
KEEP TALKING one day when you are probably wise i WOULD listen

vowiski, i coudlnt care less what you think of my posts as my target audience transcends mere maggots like you. i daresay you have no clue what a teraflop is, let alone a ton of the specs you THINK matter a great deal. even devs are still arguing about the merits/demerits of each console while they try to understand and harness that power and translate it into gaming. 

face it, dude. you a wet turkey spouting all the crap you read off blogs and forums. remember, most forums are just like us, linking other forums. me, i prefer reading devs' blogs.

Yeah. we all agree that the xbox 360 has technical flaws, it's blu-ray-less and won't have MGS 4.  But one thing that amazes me is that people keep on trooping out in large numbers to buy the console.
Ohh.  or is it because of its: sleek design and excellent dashboard;Stunning and superior HD graphics in both exclusive and multiplatform games; Xbox live/ marketplace; almost complete backward compatibility.

We all know that the reason gamers buy game consoles is to play game, not to watch movies. Most ps2 consoles in nigeria today don't play DVD movies and the owners are not complaining at all. I doubt even if some of them have ever slotted in a DVD to check wether it's working or not.

Maybe people buy xbox 360 because they want to play FABLE 2, BIOSHOCK, HALO 3, LOST ODYSSEY, MASS EFFECT, DARKNESS, GEARS OF WAR and great multi-platforms like ASSASSIN'S CREED, KANE & LYNCH, COD 4, GTA IV(with online episodic contents for 360 alone), FIFA 08, PES 2008 and not because they want to watch SPIDER-MAN 3 in HI-DEF.

IF YOU WANT TO PLAY GEARS OF WAR 2(Nov., 2008), PLEASE BUY AN XBOX 360 CONSOLE.

by ending of 2008 all XBOX 360 lovers are coming over to the Ps3 side because sony is about to unwrap its box of goodies. Why do you think the Blu ray has more than double the HD DVD? , cos you get more than double delight nwhen things unfold.
Believe me, thats what next generation gaming is all about. Just wait and see

The fact that you included the infamous Killzone screenshot shows you don't really know what you're talking about.

The extra BD space isn't as critical as you may think. Crysis comes on a single DVD, and it looks way better than anything on the PS3.

EDGE magazine just played through the entire MGS4, and while they remark on the game being an excellent ending for the series, they remark that the graphics do not live up entirely to the hype, with reports of often-visible plaion textures. Blu-Ray storage space does not guarantee superb graphics.

Most of the available Blu-Ray space is used for cutscenes anyway. Only unserious gamers are overly influenced by CG.

i just feel i must put in a word here
this ps3/xbox360 war is going too far.
they are both awesome machines in their own right.
but for now, if you are a serious gamer, the 360 elite is the best choice.
the ps3 is theoretically a far more superior console but does it show? (no!)
i have had a 360 for 2 years now and i am soo happy with it
@ texazzpete
about the mgs4 graphics, you are absolutely right
even hideo kojima was not impressed at all.
so the big question - what are all the processors and graphic cards doing?
maybe someday the ps3 will achieve its might but till that day, stick to the elite.

@Lungwun
the Ps3 is not a 'far' superior console, even theoretically.

gears of war2? huh?
KILLZOE2 kills gow2
lol

vowiski:

Considering the fact that

1. KillZone 1 was utter crap

2. Gears of War was an awesome game

3. Nothing muich has been seen of Killzone apart from a trailer


There's nothing to substantiate your claims.


By the way, Xbox 360 outsold PS3 for March. Just thought you'd like to know

@realmajid

Ohh. or is it because of its: sleek design and excellent dashboard;Stunning and superior HD graphics in both exclusive and multiplatform games;

fagot, 360 has had only one HD-game.
but almost all ps3 games are High Definition.
more?

Right now i'll advice anybody that wants to buy a console to go 4 360 elite.
no rrod, nope games, what else do i want? maybe in 4 years time a ps3

Care to show us some links to back up your claim? no offense, as i'm a new xbox 360 owner and don't want to be looking at a busted console, even after 1year. I personally know a guy who has bought 3.

I'm on mobile right now, when i get on pc, but have u ever seen, read or heard that an elite gives rrod?

Nope. but I know of someone who's bought More than one xbox _{(Don't ask how, so he claims - but you get my point)}

@ ndividual
I think the 360 is good, I prefer it to the ps3 for obvious reasons. I've had mine for 4 years now without a fault detected. So I think its what having.

wow - you really must have gotten yours from the get-go (2005?). So there's still hope for me!

Previously, playing Assassin's Creed wouldn't have exceeded 1.5hrs. But after getting Devil May Cry 4, man, I'm in the 4hr league

_{Can't wait for the other games to come out!}

can't wait 4 other games to come out or can't wait to get other games? Cos there are other games out there

malikalhaj:

Both - A game might be out and you still might not find it at your regular store. They didn't have Gears of War 2 but they had Devil May Cry 4 _{(Sold Out?)}

i'm sure u'll find most games at mega plaza and Alaba Intl.
