Which is better Xbox 360 or PS3?

[Oblivion]

I know the PS3 is better than 360 and I'm willing to argue my point with anyone. So... who's first?

[Vanya]

It depends on what you define as better.
If you go strictly by hardware the PS3 is technically more powerful, but they're both pieces of shit that break down all the goddamn time.
If you go by which has better games then that's strictly a matter of individual taste.
Personally, I have a handful of games on both systems that I'd like to play However, I probably have even more games on Wii that I'd like to get my hands on.

All of the new gen consoles are fucking terrible.

But I favor the PS3. Even though it's overpriced for those who just want a game console, at least it doesn't commit suicide like the extremely poorly designed 360 does with it's heat problems. 360 has the bigger game library, but considering most new gen games are mediocre, it's just more garbage to sift through.

forgive my ignorance, but is there a such thing as "PS3 live"?  Some sort of online ps3 thing that enables multi-player games via internet?

Yeah, it's called PSN. PlayStation Network. Unlike Live though, it's free.

[Vanya]

I believe there is. All current generation systems (including portables) have this capability.

*ninja'd*

[philsov]

cool.  In which case ps3 is probably better.  A good 90% of their library is the same games, and xbox has been known to devour game discs.

 Also, because its relevant:

70% of the games available for PS3 & XBOX360 are also available for PC.
I'm immoral! Yay! (Yes I hacked my PSP and my DS! And I'll do the same to any system I get my hands on! ^_^)

exactly. free. not $50 bucks a year.

[Vanya]

That partially explains the high price tag of the PS3.

PS3 is high in price becuase of its Blu-Ray feature. And it acts like a computer when you are in the XMB.

[Samuraiblackbelt]

so I should either buy a PC or a wii huh?

[Smitson]

yeah but the ps3 online blows..

and xbox has been known to devour game discs.

The only time that happens is when you move the system while the disk is spinning. Which the owners manuals of all systems say not to do.

I prefer the xbox 360, though the PS3 is still good.

Hacked your DS?

[DarthPaul]

DSi is hackable as it now has a SD card port.

[Oblivion]

Yeah. Nintendo wasn't thinking about being hacked through this.

Well... I got a CycloDS Evolution card which is basically the only way to hack older DSs.
