Also free online and a far lower failure rate

Hmmm.....
I dont know...
A PS3 logo?

Thats all? I'm so getting a PS3 now


Okay, running out of coke...need some coke...gotta have some coke....gonna buy some coke now

[Cosmic]

Anyway, what the PS3 has that the Xbox doesnt?

If you're having to ask this you may as well just go for whichever one you can get cheaper, unless you specifically want Blu-Ray and free online. You've got exclusives such as Demon's Souls and Uncharted on the PS3 versus the likes of Gears of War and Forza on the 360, but generally speaking I don't think there's ever been two consoles with as homogenous a software lineup.

[Raype]

Sounds like you didn't like the 360 or just needed money, so PS3 probably is the best bet for you

You can check the following (I know it's incomplete) and look at the ones that say exclusive

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...tation_3_games

Main things that come to mind are Demon's Souls, the Uncharted games, 3D Dot Game Heroes, GoW III, Heavy Rain, MAG, MGS4, the Killzones, the Resistance games, Star Ocean Last Hope International, FF Versus XIII (when it's released), and Valkyria Chronicles.

Terrible games on that list:

Uncharted 1
GoWIII
MAG
MGS4
Resistance 2
SO4

Versus XIII probably won't be out in japan until Summer 2012 at the earliest. Which means Sprung 2013 at the earliest. Or, on other words, TWO FUCKING YEARS.

Hey, Cos, you have a PS3, right? Did you ever add me? If not, mind doing so (checked the thread, but didn't see an ID for you, else I'd have sent the request)?

It's always the PS3. If I had a 360, I'd have spent over close to a grand on it by now. It's likely someone buying one now would still surpass 400 dollars in a year or two. Ha ha, Live and bare minimum packages.

I *think* I have you on there, but I'm not near the console to check right now. I'll send you a PM with my name.

I can agree that Resistance 2 and MAG weren't all that fun (R2 good for one playthrough). The first Uncharted definitely isn't as fun as the second, but I still enjoyed it (granted not enough to like I did the second), and I can't say anything about GoW III since I've yet to play.

I enjoyed MGS4 and SO though

If you're not already added then, I'll do so this weekend (or whenever I finish off Extraction)

[Slacker Magician]

I'm waiting around for an experience modifier before I finish SO4 .

It's not even especially great at that. It's probably the worst example of a huge step backwards a franchise has taken in recent memory.

It's fun, yes, but it also suffers from not being very good. At all. And being just another cover shooter that only has one defining trait: being pretty.

GoWIII came out long after most people stopped giving a shit. Also, all weapons are just variants of the basic chains. After the impressive and interesting arsenal 2 threw at you, you'd think they'd put in effort. Nope. Also, overuse of gratuitous boss fights.

MGS4 is complete proof that kojima stopped giving a shit about the series. No codec saves? Bare minimum humor? Product placement everywhere? Fanboy pandering? NANOMACHINES? How can anyone like this. Even the guy who wrote it calls it a steaming pile, come on.

SO's terribadness is well documented. ALL MUST KNOW.

[Slacker Magician]

Metal Gear Solid stopped making sense to me around MGS3.

I'm outta here to test some new codes in Trinity Universe, bye all.

Yeah, I guess it depends what you're using it for really. You guys do the gameshare thing so I can see why it works out cheaper in your case. I find XBLA is slightly cheaper than PSN over here, and with the amount of stuff I've bought on sale that £35 I spent on fourteen months of Gold back in September has already paid for itself. Plus shit tends to come out sooner on XBLA here. Castle Crashers and SF2HD came out MONTHS later on PSN than in North America. Sony have been pretty slack with that all along, sadly.

I really wonder if he would kill Kabuto...
I hope not.

Nah, he's be too impressed with Kabuto to kill him. What he's done is nothing short of amazing, especially (spoiler tags for Lydia's sake)

Spoiler warning:

infusing the Orochimaru cells and holding them off, while getting all of their power, as well as perfecting the IWR technique
