Considering a 360 or a PS3

[Tigerblade]

really? how's that work?

An additional freeview addon (usb most likely) that works as a PVR in conjuction with the PS3 HDD......time for a bigger HDD methinks

It may be "cheaper" in the long run, but I'd rather pay for xbox live then attempt to use the sad excuse the ps3 has for online. I mean seriously, why the hell should I have to agree to the same damn eula every single time I want to play warhawk? Plus you can't access the xmb ingame (which means no friends list) so you can't see what friends are online (or join with them, since there isn't a real party system for any of the games),

I'd like to see your views after fw 2.0/Home is released.....there are video's of in-game XMB running out there, basic it maybe but if it has friends list/messages/music then that is all that is needed.


My 2p's worth is along the lines of many. Pretty much all the 360's big hitters WILL appear on the PC in a far better guise, PS3's/Wii's won't simple as. There's your answer.

PS3 has Resistance and that looks amazing to me.

Xbox 360 has Gears of War and I played it and loved it. Halo 3 was mediocre, didn't care much for Forza or GRAW 2.

If anyone here owns both that could prove to be very helpful.

I would wait about another year for ps3.. The 360 has much more game's gow is not that good... and you can use it as a MCEE for ur TV the 360 is a must have..

I'm with you man, PC/PS3/Wii combo is where its at.

Since you both practically said the same thing, I'll answer both at the same time:

For now, it would be interesting to see peoples views if the above does become available on the ps3 wether its through home or the xmb for free.

I can't wait until those are released, since that will fix 99% of my compaints with the ps3 right now (the other 1% being the lack of fun games I want to play, at least right now). I think it will come a long way to address the shortcomings of the platform as it stands. It probably won't be as good or as polished as xbl, but you can't really argue with 85% of the features for 0% of the cost.
