"What is better XBOX 360 or PS3"

I don’t know what console to get in the future XBOX 360 or PS3!!!, so I through I would listen to your comments on the best console.

The XBOX 360 has these features:

CPU with three IBM PowerPC 3.2 GHz Cores
ATI 500 MHz graphics processor
48 billion shader operations per second
512Mb GDDR3RAM of memory
20 Gb Hard Drive
Three USB Ports
Support for four controllers
Wireless Controllers
Personalised Clip-On Fascias
Video Chat Camera Support

The PS3 has these:

Cell Processor PowerPC-base Core 3.2GHz CPU
RSX 550 MHz graphics processor
100 billion shader operations per second
256Mb XDR Main RAM at 3.2 GHz plus 256MB GDDR3 VRAM at 700MHz
Slot for additional hard drive
Six USB Ports
Support for seven wireless controllers
"Blu-Ray" Media Support

And the Revolution:

WiFi internet capability out of the box and access to online gaming.
Access to download a huge catalogue of NES, SNES and N64 games.
Backwards compatibility with GameCube titles.
DVD movie capability.

I think I would chose out of the XBOX 360 and the PS3

As the consoles go I think the PS3 looks more promising. It seems like it may have more features and posibilities. It all depends on the games tho, because these possible features will only become reality if the games developers make it so. The plus for the XBox is that it already has a well esstablished online gaming network.

Its hard to tell until they are released. Either way, it doesnt matter which you buy because both will have games like Burnout and Fifa that are released on both and will also have their fair share of exclusives so you'll have something fun to play.

Thanks for the info Geffdof. I will go with the PS3 instead of the XBOX 360 or if not I will try and buy both lol.

That sounds immense.

PS3 is twice as powerfull as the Xbox 360 i have heard. So PS3 it is for me then.

I think I'm going to have to side with Sony again. From what I've seen so far of both machines, it looks like the PS3 will be a bigger step forward.

For some reason I have never sided with Nintendo gaming consoles. They don't really compete with Sony and Microsoft consoles.

Nintendo have said they will be releasing a thing where you can download NES,SNES and 64 games onto the Gamecube 2. Now forgive me if im wrong, but thats just a quick way of getting cash. Re-releasing yet MORE, 'old classics''

When will Ninty learn to make NEW, refreshing games.

Nintendo normally go for the fun appeal to all ages angle with their games, where as the other 2 release alot of everything knowing that someone will find what they want in the hundreds of games.

Alot of games for Xbox and PS2 arn't really that new concept wise as they have got to the point PC's are at, just re-hashing genres with updated graphics and every so often something will be release with a new 'insert name' engine.

I like the idea of being able to get some of the old classics, i won't be buying any of these new machines but if i was to pick nintendo would get my money.

That’s the best advantage of the Revolution console, but the PS3 or XBOX 360 gets my money.
