PS3 vs. 360: Now A Fair Fight, Software Will Determine Winner

Ben Dutka of psxextreme writes: For the first time ever this generation, the PlayStation is the exact same price as a comparable Xbox 360 model and because Sony has been charging hard throughout 2009, the two competitors have established an even ground and now...it's a fair fight. No excuses from here on out; ultimately, the console with the better software will prevail.

is a fair fight, then okay

wxer6111d ago

still not a fair fight
with the arcade being the cheapest console on the market
and with a console that heavily hacked v.s. a console that never been hacked

so its still not a fair fight

corywebb936111d ago

This is like comparing a oldsmobile to a lamborghini

And the xbox 360 is the lamborghini

Finalfantasykid6111d ago (Edited 6111d ago )

I think you're right.

I own both consoles but honestly, and I am not even joking. This is like comparing a dewalt drill to a fisher price drill, and the xbox 360 is the fisher price drill.

Say what you will about both consoles but the tech and hardware quality for both consoles are night and day, with Sony's core experience as a hardware company showing very clearly in their console design.

no doubt this xmas is going to b epic for the game industry.

Another 360 v Ps3 article.

Well guys, lets hear it!
Whats your opinions?

Redgehammer6111d ago

surprise surprise
Who would have guessed there would be another useless ps3 vs 360 article. My only question is who cares?

nycredude6111d ago

I know it's another 360 vs Sony article but it's correct.
Now it's all about the content.. and we all know who has the advantage in development studios.

Tsar4ever016111d ago

By the time they release the 8th gen of consoles. Microsoft already won in terms of consoles sold. Just remember, XBOX360 had that first year all to themselves, ya'll remember the articles and street stories,

Question: "Why'd you get a x360, why not just wait for the release of the ps3?"

answer: "CUZ ALL MY FRIENDS WENT AND GOT ONE, And I want to play with my friends."

A strong portion of those x360 fans were ps2 owners and because of the ps3 not being available(*blu-ray diodes troubles)the alluring power of XBOXLive the fanbase picked up really solid during that year. Also it still has the development advantage over the PS3 so the multiplats games will continue to favor the X360 over ps3.

Ps3 sales gonna really pick up now that the prices is right. It already surpasses x360 in terms of value. And it's still more future proof than x360. But as long as it's still selling by being bought OVER AND OVER again because of it pathetic reliability issues. It'll take sony way to long to catch up and surpass it by the time the next gen of consoles be released.

Your reading this from a PROUD owner of the Ken Kutaragi PS3, the CLASSIC 60gb 1st gen version. All the other version that followed after his forced retirement are the Kaz H. & J. Trenton versions.

P.S. EVERYBODY HOT & READY FOR THE NEW "ALIEN VS PREDATOR" GAME!!??????

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle30d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7730d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde37d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy38d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga39d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199238d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga38d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman38d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger38d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box39d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion38d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7239d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7538d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit38d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14939d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7739d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
