Who Has PS3 Online

[Skunky]

I'm online with PS3 but my internet speed is only 256. It's fast enough to download demos etc. and play 'some' games online but I've never really got into online gaming...

'NemesisAustralis' is the account I usually use.

I'm probably buying a PS3 for Cristmas
If I buy it I'm playing online for sure
But I don't know if I'm buying a 360 or a PS3 yet
Help me guys

360. Definately. Without a doubt.

I had the same decision to make last year and I chose 360, never regretted it since. Love the games for it, love the online, there are more online players who have 360 than PS3, 360's are cheaper yet a much superior console, and there is a bigger variety of games.

Besides, it's more likely 360 owners will get an earlier preview of the RE5 demo.

PS3 man all the way I got both consoles and I play Left 4 Dead and Gears Of War on XBOX every now and again always use my PS3 for games, dvds and it has bluray XBOX dnt, trust as a neutral PS3 is the one to have if your only having 1. I added everyone who put thier names up thanks for the replys hope to see you online, Any of you guys got COD, GTA, Madden, Skate or GT5 Prologue. Skunky I have that problem to where do you find out what the internet speed is for the PS3?

So? If he wants a blu ray player he can buy one. That's no reason not to get a 360. Besides, a lot more people already own a lot more DVDs they'd like to play than blu ray. 360 online is much better and if I'd have chosen the PS3 last year, I know I'd have really regretted it. As soon as I played 360 online, I knew I'd made the right choice.

Yeah,but if I get a 360 I probably wont pay the XBOX LIVE
I need to decide until monday damn it

And that price thing is not an argument for me Everything here is expensive

[P Anderson DIE]

Yeah thats another thing you gotta pay for XBOX online PS3 is free, plus theres the ring of death for the XBOX. Had to send my XBOX back three times!! PS3 once.

I've had my 360 for a year now and I've not once had the RROD. That was a manufacturing fault with the original 360's, it's very rare for it to happen now. Microsoft also cover any fault that occurs with the RROD. You have to pay for gold with XBL because it's a better service.

The problem is that I would need to pay for the games and for internet on 360
I just need to buy games on the PS3

The graphics difference in my opinion is just visible if u play a game in both consoles at the same time

Honestly, it's entirely personal preference whether you buy which console. They both have plusses (free online play and a higher reliability for the PS3, cheaper console and a superior online system for the 360) and they both have there flaws (expense for the PS3 and reliability for the 360).

I own both, and have had both fail on me, especially the older models.

So, my advice to you, especially since you don't wanna pay for the 360 version, is this: Do you wanna play online a lot? If so, go for the PS3.

If not then look at the Library for both. Which has the exclusives you want more, such as Halo and Metal Gear, and which will have more released in the next few months. That's why I chose a 360 first, because I wanted Dead Rising and BioShock.

I'm REALLY interested on online gameplay
I always buy wii games with online features

Thanks for helping me guys

[Alexia_Ashford]

Seriously, if you want better online, go for the 360. It's much better. The only downside is, you have to pay for it. But it's only £40 a year. PS3 is free but it doesn't have as many players, as many online games and it's a bit slower. A lot of 360 games are focussed about online, such as Left 4 Dead. I didn't do any online gaming before I got my 360, now I couldn't do without it.

[P Anderson DIE]

Either way your getting a quality console so doesnt really matter which one toss a coin on it.

[Biohazard EX]

I don't care enough for online gaming to pay for it. If I had a 360, I wouldn't play online period. I bought the game, that's all I'm gonna pay to play it. That's why I don't play MMORPGs or any game that's purely online. I want to know that if something should happen and internet dies one day, I can still play my games.

i have used all three online srvices and i find that the XBL is the best service fo r the money, its more stable than WII service and you can actually find good microphones for it unlike the ps3 which is a finicky bitch when it comes to headsets. also after playing COD4 on both ps3 and 360 i prefer the 360 control. i dun mind paying 50 a year for the service because with all the added stuff like netflic streaming its way worth it
