PS3 for me.

Better 1st party devs,free online,backwards compatibility,blu ray,rechargable remotes,less failure rate.

Yes i do have an xbox360 but no games interest me on it iv'e only used it like twice when my friend came over and he wanted to play his copy of halo reach other than that it just sits there.

Let me see... which one should I pi... ugh, I can't decide..

F*ck it, I own & love both, so there.

All that matters is games and who wins

GAMES=PS3

Fun. That's how I judge it. FUN. They both are fun, I just got an Xbox over the PS3 because it was cheaper and had a bigger collection of games. Now things have evened, I do desire a PS3.

Can someone tell me WHY multiplayer is better on XBL, and please dont just say because it kicks butt. I thought more PSN games had dedicated servers, but I dont play so I dont really know.

PS
Cost should be changed to Value.

I choose PS3 over X360 because, well... Truth is I wanted a X360 when it released, had no money though. So I waited, PS3 released, still no money, waited. Then in 09' or 2010 bought a PS3 on my birthday, with MGS4. I have not regreted this even once, dang I love Metal Gear :D. Oh, and I also prefer the controller, been using DualShock since PSX era.

Next gen could be different though, also hope Nintendo steps up. Want an updated N64 experince (if you can catch my point)

Ok, so how the heck did the PS3 tie with the 360 when it came to titles. The PS3 easily has better titles.

I like the my PS3 more since there are simply more exclusives and blu-ray is a big plus...

Furthermore I PREFER the controller over xbox controller... yes the xbox controller does feel more solid in terms of build quality but I have learned that the ps3 controller has always felt cheaper but we all know it will not break(hell they have been using similar design since the beginning)

In the end of the day I find it is much easier to do quicker buton mashing and maneuvers with the ps3 controller that is why I give preference to it. Even the flimsy triger buttons feel like you can execute moves faster than the xbox controller. All the buttons feel spongier also making it feel that it is morepressure sensitive than thexbox controller.

Wii. I guess this means I win.

Why is it that 7 years later we are still having this "showdown"?

Heavy Rain DevHas Two New Games in the Works* 

Sony Cambridge?s AAA PS3 Game Set For 2012, Will Have Online*

Sony Santa Monica has two new projects in the works*

Guerrilla Games working on new PS3-exclusive IP, not related to Killzone*

I love them both. They both have basically the same games, both have tons of exclusives, i love free online but will say xbl is leaps and bounds better than psn but i like the web browser in the ps3. Kinect has tons of bada** looking games coming, and move is a nice optional way to play a few games. Games wise i play the 360 more because i play all multiplats on it and more exclusives.

my face when this argument still exists.

After E3 it will be even more apparent which console is king.

For me it was kinda close: 360 destroyed PS3's controller but PS3 edged out 360 on games and won on durability and cost. Not including games, I've spent $700 on 360 (had to buy a slim because my old 20 gig broke) and spent close to $300 on Live since 2006 and only $400 on my 80 gig PS3.

Woah! WTF never really thought about how much money my 360 has cost me - I should have just built a PC.

PS3 for me

For the love of god, how many of these articles do we need?! And this is N4G after all, so asking such a question is completely pointless.

Why do these articles get approved?? Im new to this site and its all i see at the top of the page. All these articles do is promote arguing and hate comments. Love the console you have or get both and love them equal.

Now that Jim Ryan is gone just need to remove Herman Hulst from his position! And maybe give Shuhei the position he deserved.

This gen hasn't been the best for games, last gen consoles are still out there and now there's been talk of the PS6 and Xbox Two for a year or so. Many games this gen will be ported to next gen and the cycle will continue. The re-release of the Neo Geo AES+, games on cartridge for £70 ($95), gaming is going back in time. Gaming has gone pricing mad with the high cost of games, consoles and controllers. The men and women at the top are clueless.

It’s always interesting to hear behind-the-scenes stories like this, especially involving veterans like Shuhei Yoshida and leadership figures like Jim Ryan. That said, there are usually multiple sides to decisions at that level. It could be less about not “listening” and more about differences in long-term vision for PlayStation. Yoshida played a huge role in shaping the brand, so whatever the reason, his impact is undeniable.

If true, and I'm inclined to believe it is, it goes to show that Sony lost their way when they became more western/didn't respect the PlayStation origin story. Andrew House and Jack Tretton did great work, but they also didn't try to fundamentally change the PlayStation DNA. Ryan oversaw the death of Japan Studio and a live service direction.

I already figured this, good lord imagine if Shuhei took over instead, would've been a platinum era 😩

I miss the first three generations of PlayStation. The way they turned PS3 around, we knew they meant business. We were all worried for a bit there around launch. Eventually from 2008 they started shifting slowly. But since Yoshida was fired, it's never been the same. Still enjoy my PS5 daily. I got a backlog dating back to PS2 lol So I'm fine but new games aren't as appealing anymore.

It seems like we were thrown on to the worst timeline possible where everything is too expensive and the wrong people were put in positions that makes the world a shitty place. We could have had Shu as the head of PS but we got the shitty alternative. Same goes for everyone in power around the world. Doesn’t matter the company or country the majority of us got the shitty picks and the world is declining like never before. I do think PS can come out of this because of their studios, talent and IP but they need someone more in touch with gamers leading things like Shu was. They’re still the best place for console gaming imo but it could be much better than it is especially without the massive live service failures. The rest of the world I have a lot less hope for right now. Hopefully the pendulum swings back towards the good ole days but I’m preparing for the worst.

There goes illuminati distraction story

So now there's certifiable proof that Ryan was in fact "fired", as opposed to when it was first announced that he "retired", in order to save face.

There's another guy who recently "retired" as CEO of another large gaming company, after doing a dismantling job as lead for well over a decade.

seems legit, the business man, fires the one who has ideas to move the business forward.

Jim Ryan is the reason why we are entering year 6 since the PS5 launch and many of us don't feel like the PS5 has gotten started as yet.

I hope going forward, we will see a return to form.
