I'd agree that the PS3 pad is horrible, but that's really an opinion, and I've never liked PS pads.

As for paying for playing online, from what I've heard the servers are of a much higher quality than the PS3 ones.

Wireless? You're better off running a bloody cable anyway.

Voicechat is same quality (mono) on PSN as far as I know and DLC should be about the same. Dunno about the rest.


Does the DLC cost money (like the MS points?) ?

Warhammer: Spacemarine will be xbox360 exclusive from what I've heard.

Was reason enough for me.



No it isnt, the trailer also says PS3.
BUT DO F****** WANT THIS GAME
(<- huge warhammer fan!)

The HDD on a 360 Elite, which is basically the same price as the standard one these days, is 120GB. That should be more than large enough for anything. There really isn't that much that will take up a great deal of space.

Yeah, you cant copy videos on it or other stuff, its basicly for installing games on the HDD to make them load faster or for the marketplace stuff.

But really Monthly online fee you pay for your internet you pay for the console you pay for the game then you pay to play it.......... come on ?

Yeah thats one problem... PS3 = 300 € ... 360 Elite = 220 ... in about 8-9 months it would be as expensive as a PS3.

I have no Idea about the games though, 360 has some exclusive titles and the PS3 too .. so its not much of a big deal.

Yes, it does- as far as I know.

Yeah, and streaming works for both. Dunno about further media-integration with PS3 though, probably has xbox beat there.

Imo it completely depends on what you mainly want to do with it.
Do you want to play lots of games online? Xbox has a bigger player-base (because of pricing if nothing else) and games-library, so that may be the obvious choice for that.
Or maybe you only want to play SP games with the occasional online-game thrown in, then you could consider the PS3 for the other features it has over the xbox (read: BLURAY) and because PSN generally seems to have a more mature player-base.

Well, I mainly want to play with it, so I guess I am better off with a 360, the multimedia features are not THAT important anyway, we only have like 2 blu ray discs and most off the stuff I watch is on my PC hdd and I can easily connect it with my beamer anyway.

More mature player base well...I dont need to play with em do I? Just like in tf2 :D

M.A.G and MGS4 are also really good games only available for the PS3.

Difference is though, in TF2 you get a choice of who your playing with by picking a server. On the console you're thrown in with whoever happens to be playing at that time.

Could happen on the PS3 as well.

I think this sums it up pretty well.
