Should I get a PS3 or 360?

[SilentHopes]

I'm trying to decide what I should buy this summer.

My uncle's xbox 360 - $150 comes with 4 games
or
Used Ps3 Slim - Around $200 (I'd probably get a couple games too.)

Get the PS3, unless you want to get a console that has a 40%+ failure rate.

PS3, in my opinion it's better

That's really not a valid argument.

That's really not a valid argument.

Average Console Failure rates:

Xbox 360 - 54.2%
PS3 - 11%
Wii - 5%

depends really,

if you have alot of friends who have a ps3 get one to play with them and the same thing goes for the xbox really

It depends. If you're really into online gaming, and you really only want a console for gaming, get a 360. If you're looking for an all around entertainment system, get a PS3. I'd personally go for 360 in your case, 'cause you'd get it for cheaper and get more games with it. Plus you could play with me.

That's pretty funny and pathetic. I have to say, even though I own a 360, with that rate they really suck. Online is good though, just expensive in comparison to free.

It isn't your opinion, it is your fact.

Nah, it's called an opinion. I've played all 3 systems thoroughly, and my opinion is that 360's the best. All consoles have pros and cons, and the best console for you depends on your style of play. I play almost exclusively online, and the last time I watched a DVD on my 360 was a couple of months ago. Logically, that was the choice for me. On the other hand, my friend Jack spends his time being OCD about collecting trophies in single player, and he doesn't like first person shooters much. Whenever I go to his house we watch movies on his PS3. Obviously, that was the console for him. It's all based on personal preference, because no console bests the other in all areas.

I'd go with the 360.

 

[Caleb]

I would say 360 just becauase I hate PS3 controllers. And it is better for online play.

Anyways, I'm going to say PS3. It's got some decent shooters if you're into that, but what I really like about it is the amount of variety there are in games, such as LBP and 3D Dot Game Heroes.

PS3.

PS3 for the exclusives. Most 360 exclusives go straight to PC, anyway.
