Title says all..who is the best.

My bet PS3
What is yours.

Sorry if its a repost..please delete if so.

Lets the game begin!

[vish786]

add a poll

[naveen_reloaded]

Sure will do it.
Another thing..
Everybody kindly adjust..i made a blunder with the title..it should have been xBOX 360.

Is wii available in india.?
I think not..thats why omitted from the fight.

[ring_wraith]

Well, on paper the PS3 certainly is better. But the very fact that currently it has a much broader game base and more developer support will do for it what happened to the PS2. This fight is exactly like the PS2 vs. Xbox except that they have switched places. And we all know who won...

besides it helps a lot that X360 has P1R@teD games.....

[Cyrus_the_virus]

I think the forum has already seen this discussion loooong back.

[Zeeshan Quireshi]

but once again , Xbox 360 is the clear winner . PS3 is miles behind .

[ravi_9793]

How can any1 compare without using both.

I have nothing to comment..I have neither of the two

[Who]

I JUST hate that there is no Wii option here, sure it has less support here its not even offically avalible here but ITS the best console out there, thanks.

Wii is for kids and grannies. not for serious gaming. xbox360 is a clear winner as of now. But by the end of next yeat, ps3 will definetely take the crown.

1) Sony reduced the cost of PS3 SDK by 50%.
2) The new $300 40GB PS3 is now the hottest selling console in Japan and in US and to everybody's surprise, it overtook Wii for two straight weeks.
3) Huge number of games to be relesed in next 3 months.

[The_Devil_Himself]

where is my option "I don't give a damn"?

[bikdel]

yeah XBOX 360 leads right now... MS is dying to promote XBOX 360 to cover up for the failure of 'xbox' ... also HD DVD is more common and is ahead in the next gen Optical data storage than Blue Ray... but Sony's current strategies are gonna make microsoft think something real quick

[ssdivisiongermany1933]

PS3 is horse of long race

[naveen_reloaded]

PS3 has all the stuff to win this one..
But will buy it when there are pir..ted games being played on it

[amitava82]

On paper surely PS3 rulz but the fact is Xbox 360 is ahead of PS3 because:
Good collections of games, Price, and the fact that it can play backups which is easily available. Also at this point of time differences in the quality of graphics are almost unnoticeable.

Again its foolish to compare both the consoles without even using them... But for me its PC even though its expensive in terms of total cost of ownership.

PS3 is horse of long race

Dude what matters to games is that what games you can CURRENTLY play n not dream of games that are about to come .

currently , the xbox 360 leads with the best game collection and the biggest hits of the years are 360 exclusives{Halo 3 , Bioshock } .

Also , 360 games cost rs 999 n 1895 here in India , whereas all PS3 games cost Rs 2799 . In Addition the latest games are not available in stores for the PS3 but the 360 games come to market very early . Similarly , PS3 game library in India is very smal(Landmark has 11 PS3 games in stock n 100+ Xbox 360 n Xbox games in stock )

And Most Importantly , I Own an Xbox 360 n mah mate owns a PS3 , so i hv used both extensively and only then am i commenting .

Xbox cause of shear number of game titles available. but on paper the PS3 shows better figures, The cellprocessor power has to be unlocked to get the best of PS3.

[Zeeshan Quireshi]

well if you read online reports , you'll find out that the Xbox 360 GPU and CPU both are very much optimized than the cell processor , this helps the 360 in belting out performance greater than what the cell processor can .

Also , the 360 has a much better SDK than the PS3 which is why game developers can develop games faster on the 360 without any potimization problems .

[naveen_reloaded]

I heard that after recent price drop,PS3's sales have gone up and beyond even wii's sales..
Backed this with upcoming games to PS3 for this season ,PS3 is hot and will get to top within months.

Another thing is one dev company,i forgot its name,have mentioned that creating games for PS3 is really intersting given the new cell processor...and its archieture ..
Lets see,if many dev jump in and explore the capabilities of PS3,who knows what gfx effect are we yet to encounter..

[Abhishek Dwivedi]

well i prefer PS-3....

[ssdivisiongermany1933]

Zeeshan bhai seems to be anti PS3 , well every body has different views

[desiibond]

In seemingly stark contrast to Sony, whose backwards compatibility stance is moving, um, backwards, Microsoft keeps chugging right along in adding compatible titles to the 360, today announcing an impending update that will "unlock" a further 84 games. According to Joystiq, there are now a total of 465 original Xbox discs that will work on the 360, all supposedly given new life in 720p and 1080i with anti-aliasing. Hit the Read link for the full list of newly-compatible titles, and not to ruin the surprise or anything, but we think that fans of Godzilla Destroy All Monsters Melee and Greg Hastings Tournament Paintball Max'd will be particularly pleased.

I like PS3 more. Its not just a gaming console but a complete entertainment device. You can install Linux on it, browse the net, listen to music, watch hi-def movies and of course, play games. Soon it also act as a PVR after a firmware upgrade.

[naveen_reloaded]

Well said..
And dont forget about the cell proc.

[gaurav_indian]

For me.
PC>PS3>XBOX

[The_Devil_Himself]

for me soccer>>>pc>mobile>>wii>ps3>>xbox360

[SunnyChahal]

for me soccer>>>pc>mobile>>wii>ps3>>xbox360

xbox is not that bad but pc is the best

[Cyrus_the_virus]

I think XBOX is clearing loosing the race in the poll

[krazzy]

But why was the pc option added to poll? Its after all PS3 v/s XBOX 360 thread.

[Renny]

PS3 is the definite winner,

People have been moaning for long of how expensive the PS3 is, well you can get a modded PS3 for around 24K, and with bill and warranty a 60GB PS3 costs 30K whereas an XBOX 360 premium costs 27K,

And in a PS3 you get a Blu-Ray drive which is completely next-gen and one can even load Linux on their PS3 and use it like a PC,

The XBOX isnt even completely nextgen(has only a DVD drive) and developers have already used up 90% of the 360s resources,
Whereas only 30% of the PS3s power has been used,

And the PS3 offers complete backward compatibility with the 60GB PS3s, but the 360 does'nt offers very limited backward compatibility,

So with prices almost equal and since the PS3 offers much-much more at the relatively same price as that of the 360, the PS3 is the definite winner.

[Cyrus_the_virus]

It's also a myth where these XBOX fans keep saying that there are no games for the PS3. They might have been right 6-9 months ago. But this expired fact no longer hold good. PS3 is gaining back it's ground as expected.
