Is ps3 better then xbox 360?

Answer 1

PS3 and Xbox are both very similar consoles with similar games.

If you think about it there are more people that are buying Xbox then PS3 only because it's known to be cheaper then the PS3. The two consoles are better in different ways like Xbox is better then PS3 when it comes to renting movies and downloading games and can sometimes be faster but when using a PS3 the menus are easy to navigate for new comers and are much faster then the Xbox for the system menu.

When playing a PS3 game such as modern warfare 3 the game will be a blue ray disk but when you play a game on Xbox the disk will not be in blue ray

Online is a big difference for both of the consoles for example

PS3 has 2 memberships the stranded and other known as play station plus which is something which you won't have to pay for just to play games online as when you have a standard membership you will still be able to play online

With Xbox you need to keep paying around $10 Aussie a month for gold but with silver you cant play online games, you can't enter an Xbox live party; you can't use most of the online features for the console. The only good thing about Xbox live is that the DLC will normally be released first on Xbox live

some people say that Xbox live has more security then PlayStation network all because they got hacked but when someone works out your password and email address on Xbox live and you have a credit card on your account then the person will be able to buy new things using your credit card

For PlayStation it is somewhat different when you want to sign in to your account on another console with a credit card on your account you will have to verify the credit card on that console other wise you will have to take the credit card off which it gives you the option to do so.

Games: Xbox has amzing titles like Halo, gears of war, and fable (which is also on computer). However PS3 takes the lead with uncharted (Which got better ratings then halo 4, and Uncharted 3 has better graphics then any Xbox title), Kill zone, Resistance, Mod nation racers, little big planet, infamous, God of War, and many more!

Online: As a kid paying $60 a year for xbox live seems very pricy and anoying, however if you have the money you will be awarded with a better online gaming experience! and if you really care about online then you can get PlayStation Plus which is still not as good as Xbox live but is also slightly cheaper!

Features: Although both can get things like Netflix PS3 is ahead in this area as it has a built in Blu-Ray player, and a few more things in general are accesable to the ps3.

Controlers: This is the least important part as it really varies in people. Xbox controllers seem better for larger hands and ps3 is better for smaller but both work fine. If you really hate the controller for one system though you can just get a controller not made by sony/microsoft as they make ps3 like controllers for xbox and xbox like controllers for ps3

Random stuff: I find that Ps3 has a few advantages such as people who engoy downloading there games, ps3 can come in 500GB sizes, as the xbox only comes in 320GB (also xbox rips you off by making a 4GB system and selling for same price as the 16GB ps3). Also controllers generally are the same price, there are these cool deals where for an extra $5 you can get a cool game with your controller on ps3! also Xbox 360 cords are normally bigger, heavier, and have a big elecrical box in the middle of it which is anoying for traveling with it!

Final thoughts: PS3 sadly got hacked (however you were given 2 FREE games) for a number of weeks which proved its somewhat bad sucurity and also the ps3 has less downloadable games then you can get from Xbox live, but in my opinion the clear winner is PS3!
