XBOX 360 or PS3

Hi Guys,
I am lee from India. I love to play games and watch movies. I want Picture Quality, Performance, Best Price. I am very confused between these two. Can anyone tell which is better for me and why?

Ahhh, feel free to add me in, Lee! You'll find me as Celestry, on both systems. If you get a message saying my friends list is full, message me and i'll boot someone out! LOL (^_^)

First of all, you need to be honest about what you intend on doing with either of these the most. If you play games WAY more than you watch movies, then you need the xbox360. There are more exclusive titles and most of the time, if you really look hard, the graphics are slightly better (Anti-aliasing is much better) and you get more on screen data (about an inch of image all around the screen)

If you intend on watching more movies and playing the odd game, the PS3 is defo the way to go. Bluray, and it's DVD upscaler is better than xbox, indeed, as a media center it's better (the photo slide shows are just brilliant) There are some really special exclusives, too, and with the likes of Unchartered and Killzone, Gran Tourismo, you begin to think it's graphics are better than 360, and in these cases, question if the 360 could handle them!

For me, i'm a gamer, so if i had to ditch one, it'd be the PS3, though i would surely lament its loss (<_>)

Ciao for now!

I own both but prefer the 360s online and controller.

I stream DivX's from the computer to my son's Xbox to TV. Quality is excellent.
It's an old boiler analogue TV (32" flatscreen), but not getting changed anytime soon.
My buddy has an HDTV and his X360 games look really superb. I can't imagine there's much between X360 and PS3 apart from price. 360 is almost half the price in Finland, though.

360 here too, but the only thing is that they are prone to die - been through one so far.

Red Ring of Doom for 360 bit of a worrry.

IMHO, put the cash into getting a really good pc. You can game online, with better controllers, support, variety, and deeper communities, and you can do all your music, work, and other activities with it as well.

Strangely, for me, I have 2 360s and 1 PS3, and it's the PS3 that died! It was one of the original UK 60GB models with backwards compatibility and additional USB ports. It cost me £145 to have it replaced by Sony UK! Grrr! (>_<)

I've got myself an Xbox360 that is hooked up to my Optoma HD65-projector. 100" 720p-HD picture is bloody excellent.

I enjoy Xbox360-controller more than the PS1/2/3-controllers.

Off course I knew that Lee was an spammer however it made it possible for me to show me gamertag.
