Hello!
I am planning to buy some console, but can't choose between XBOX360 and PS3.
Any experience you could share please?! It would be my first console so I am totally newbie at it.
My mate has a xbox360 and there's some problem with "flashing", he has to update his flash if he want's to play with newer games than his flash version or what. Same goes for PS3?
I don't want to buy games for it ofc!
Thanks, cya.

and also Forza 4 > GT5 (gt5 just sucks :S)
Blu-Ray
Free Online
Streaming capabilities (from PC etc)
Personally I think there are better games coming out for the PS3.
Xbox 360
Great back catalogue of games
Live is great but costs
Kinect works well
More power efficient (slim models)
Easier to flash (if you want to that is)
I have both, but I would much rather my PS3!
nough said
PS3 = you can play PS2 games
I have an x360 myself, I like the controllers way more and the internet never fails! Only downside is that you have to pay for it :[
There are lots of similarities and you'll get used to the control and aim very quick. Also most games are beeing released on both consoles, exclusive titles are rare.
Downside though for Onlineplay you'll have to pay € 30,-- / year for XBOX LIVE, PS3 is for free. I would refrain from flashing any of these consoles as burning BLURAYS(PS3) or Doublelayers (360)
1) costs money (u've got to get a proper RW-drive for PC to burn em)
2) you are in constant danger of beeing banned
3) empty datadiscs cost money aswell
Just buy used games if you don't have the money if you don't plan on playing every single new game that comes out.
I've got my 360 from Amazon, got myself 20 brandnew games and only played MW3 so far.. stuff like Duke Nukem still brand new and sealed.
PS3 because you don't have to pay an extra subscription on top of your internet subscription to play online
PS3 because it's awesome for streaming from your PC
PS3 because the games are better (imo)
PS3 because it's not Microsoft
PS3 because its life expectancy is higher than that of the XBOX360
PS3 because the controllers are nicer
PS3 because I said so
playstation is much much better with everything =0
Want to play cheap games -> x360 flashed. empty data disc DL is €1,20 so no money compared to normal gameprice.
Want awesome console? Wait until 2013 for the new xbox.
Or do like I have, just one flashed x360 for the flashed games and one original one for online games e.g. FIFA2012, BF3 and MW3
just wait 1/2 year ! or get a ps3
