Q27 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 (edited) I own a PS3, 360, and Wii. It's ideal for me. All I need is a good gamin' PC.

Let's see, OK I want to play a game where do I go - Oh maybe the game menu ? Now I want to listen to some music where could I possibly go for that, hang on, could the Music menu possibly be it ? Okay, by confusing I mean ill-formed.

posture Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 I got a PS3 and love it. I want a 360 too at one point. I love watching Blu-Rays I love the PSN Games I love putting everything I download from Cinemageddon on my PS3 I love watching Netflix stuff, I assume it will cease to use the disc at one point in the future. I basically bought it to go along with my HDTV when I got it last year, don't regret it.

Remember that game? Is there a Twisted Metal game in the works for PS3? That alone is a good reason to grab one... There are rumours that Dave Jaffe is working on a new Twisted Metal but he keeps denying it...

thehauntingsoul Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 My Xbox crapped out recently with the 3 red rings problem. I called Xbox asking about repairs because I had been told that they would fix it for free if it was a first gen xbox which it was. After I called they said that it was out of the 3 year warranty and I would have to pay $140 to get it fixed. Fuck that. Also the media player interface and just generally the entire xbox dashboard is kinda fucked.

thehauntingsoul Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) The point is that I paid like $500 for this thing and >3 years afterwards it totally craps out without me doing anything that could even remotely be thought to cause damage to it. By comparison, my Snes, N64 and Ps2 are all still working fine.

plstik Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 oh and in case you want to have the cheapest High Performance Computing you may consider a PS3 before a Xbox360 Air Force bought 1700 PS3 but on the downside the ps3 seems to be losing features over the time: - no more backwards capability - no more Other OS Reveal hidden contents blabla yes it got slimmer, less noisier, Dual Shock 3 and more storage on the other side Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/55978-convince-me-to-get-a-ps3-and-not-an-xbox/page/4/#findComment-1323255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
