Hopefully the $300 I put in investments will double in a couple of months and I can afford a ps3 and a few games, although my parents don't want me to have one -_-

I have to say pat if u want a 360 more then a ps3, u either are impatient in waiting for the main releases, or just plain stupid. Value for money or not the ps3 will always be the superior piece of hardware. I mean the best game i've ever played is a ps3 demo, a demo! I simply cant compare it to anything else ive ever played in my life. and its a demo for the prologue ffs! Face it, GT5 is most likely gna be the number 1 racing game for a long long time, i mean GT4 was really the best racer for console for a long time b4 the online boom that left it behind. Oh and here's a pic of the custom Sema Car Show winner from a year or so back 1960 Vette which will be in the game

Ok after a length reply in another thred here's a list of the main EXCLUSIVE games for the 2 consoles, this is the series who hav confirmed the latest titles that have been released or the latest in development, hence sum games which 360 has got that ps3 doesnt now the sequels are on there way to ps3.
360 Ace Combat Fable 2 Forza Gears of War 2 is NOT confirmed exclusive Halo PGR4 TOTAL = 6
PS3 Devil May Cry Final Fantasy God Of War 3 GT5 Haze Killzone 2 Lair MGS4 Motorstorm (and MS2) Red Dead Revolver (the first was surprisingly impressive) Resistance The Getaway 3 Socom: Confrontation Warhawk TOTAL = 14
Now im a PS3 fan so this list may seem biased but i honestly couldnt find anymore 360 titles which will stay exclusive, or will be when they come along. So please feel free to mention anymore for either below and ill edit them in asap. Cus honestly the 360 list looks small even tho i used Wiki i could not spot any major titles in there.

(more to come, i just dont have enough time to type it all atm ) No just foolish, cus i dont believe you've actually seen the potential of the ps3, hav u actually played on one on a decent title anyway? and note how no1 has complained about my list, 360 lives off Halo, PGR and Forza, without them it's not really got anything. I love its 25% fail rate and ability to fry an egg on the overheated 'red ring of death' 360 once the covers removed. Roll on PS3 software update 2.0 so i can finally get the only reason i wanted a 360, the ps3 has a major flaw in not being able to access your PSN friends in game. Next couple of weeks nd it's all good.

basically wat im saying is you clearly said WANT, not which you could realisticly get, or which is better value. I WANT to own a Koenigsegg rather then sum pos MR2 ill probs be getting for my 1st car, but it doesnt stop me wanting a Ferrari or Zonda.
Nd even my 360 obsessed friend admits the PS3 is the better bit of kit. It's just to expensive for him.

um yea, i can realisticlly get it once i get the cash which il have in a few months. I asked 4 ppl in the past 2 days at school which should i get and immediatly they said the 360. Obviously, SOME ppl find it better because it has a wide variety of games out, and it's original in it's own way... like the ablity to play your own music during games, yea that's microsoft's idea... and the livery editor in GT5, yea that was first in forza 2 (in simulator games.) All im trying to say is that a great game to you might not be so great to others. Obviously you are a GT fanboy, so ofcourse the system with that title you will vote for. You also claim that it will be the BEST racing game of all time... acording to you. WHAT IF i were to decide that PGR4 is the BEST racing game of all time, but that doesnt mean you have to go out a by the system it plays on. Basiclly, not every1 is in love with the titles exclusivly to PS3, and GT5. My key words in my last post or so were IN MY OPINION. Yea, i have a opinion and so do you. It doesnt make yours right, nor mine. If i find certain other games more interesting than GT5, why would i spend money on a system which i wasnt that interested in the first place? It just makes since (to me). The only ps3 games i am interested (not only exclusive) in is GT5, PS, Burnout Paradise, and Stuntman: Ignition. 360 games on the other hand, PGR4, Forza 2, TDU, FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage, Burnout Paradise, MW, and (not racing, but this 1 too) Ace combat 6. To me, the 360 games i am interested in playing/owning outnumber the ps3 games, so why buy a system in which i want less games on?
Ill put it this way: 85% chance i get a 360, and 15% chance i change my mind and get a ps3 when the time comes. Untill then, i vote to discuss something else about the systems so that we dont continue on the road to a flame war.
Oh and one more thing. Apparently the PS3 isnt THAT cool b/c jay/steven have said they are thinking about getting a 360 to keep at their mom's house. Mmmmhmmm. Well, the PS3 must not be too much of a pot-o-gold or else they wouldnt want a 360 still.

lol..just b/c you brought me up... i like my ps3 just fine and id be perfectly happy w/o a 360. the only thing i really want a 360 for are forza, tdu, and pgr...as phil mentioned. and i would never have considered buyin a 360 along w/ my ps3 if the price hadn't dropped to under $300 im done w/ this argument

Pat is free to purchase whatever system he prefers, and If he wants those games then It's worth it for the time being. In my opinion... the PS3 is more worth the money (at least for my sake) for the fact of PS2 compatibility, and that I've been using PS2 for years now, and I would not easily adapt the change to a different type of console instead of basically the same console but 5x better. Also, the PS3 and 360 prices are slowly starting to even out, which means higher demand from customers, leading to more games available for retail for the PS3. I myself am still leaning towards the sony system for these reasons, but as I said earlier, it's your decision...Do you want to pay a few hundred for a 360 with the chance of complete technical failure (but along with great features) or a bit higher price for the PS3 (think the same system that you've known for years, but much better?)

If microsoft keep charging for live it still works out way more expensive for s online gamers, to buy a 360, which people are finally picking up on, hence microsofts moving towards free online (about bloody time to the tight arses lol ) And personally if you ask me the best racing game is that which is most like racing, so gt obviously takes that. Its by far the most challenging driving game ive played therefore providing more depth in my eyes. I was assuming you as a matture gamer wud prefer a more realistic game then the easy as pie PGR series for instance.(altho 4 cud actually be hard this time round on platinum i havent played it yet). Sure Forzas realistic, but its just not the same with its incredibly poor graphics on certain tracks. Sure they did livery editor but as cool as pretty paint jobs are it doesnt make the driving experience any different. Not to mention the track day feature shud be fantastic video making opportunity, just imagine spectating a 16 man team drift... and finding 16 good drifters wont be a difficult task thanks to GTP. I do hope they finally get most of the major licensing tho, Ferraris the only one so far that they didnt have b4 that i know of. I'd really like to take the CCX and the new top speed record holding SSC Ultimate Aero TT (clocked 256.19mph average of 2 runs over in the United States of America(land) lol) for a spin round the Nurburgring, or Daytona seeing as stock car racing looks iminant as they had one stock car back on GT2 i think. Oh and GT2 also had a livery option altho it wasnt custom, so Forza wasnt totally new on the simiulator with livery editor front. Altho i hav to admit the latest PS3 software update looks disapointing, still no music over games by the looks Not that it makes much difference seeing as my computers about 2 metres away Any1 for Super Rub-A-Dub? XD Steven might know wat i mean.
