I'm planning on getting one in the near future. I do not want an x-box just for Halo. I hate that game, so that's not a factor.

I really just want one for the new Batman games that are coming/have come out. Mortal Kombat vs DC and Arkham Asylum.

Also, I wouldn't mind getting Little Big Planet.

Anyways, I mostly want one for the Batman games, all of which come out on both the 360 and PS3. So, which one is better?

Personally, I like the 360, but it sounds like the PS3 is better suited for you

I have an xbox so pick that. Lol.

Judging from the fact you like platformers and Batman, and you probably have small lady-like hands I'd say get the PS3.

360 has terrible hardware and is terribly designed. its online is better though, so if you enjoy online multiplayer go 360.

ps3 is a more powrful and more capable system, and has better single player games. you sound more like a ps3 person

If you just want Multi-Platform games just grab a cheap 360.

If you're interested in LBP, then go for PS3. It's not headed over to 360.

if price is a factor 360. LBP is one game. You can live with out it

I played on a ps3 around my friends house yesterday and it was nice... the screen might have been set up wrong because you couldnt see any of the small writing on it, but the racing games had great graphics, and also, you only get LittleBigPlanet on ps3, and that game is awesome!

I dont know much about the xbox360, other than that ive heard people saying its also really good, and its much cheaper so it might outweigh the ps3 just by price. It depends what sort of gaming you want really, and the sorts of games you use it for most. Ask a shop assistant for advice- just dont let them talk you into something you dont want lol.

Someone else made a good point about the controllers too- i prefer ps3 controllers to the xbox


The small writing is just depending on your TV. If you have it in 1080p on a small tv, that's what happens.

If the text is too small/too hard to read, bump it down to 720p.

Which ever ones more in your price range. Xbox is cheaper but i like the controls on playstation. Good thing Guitar Hero 3 is on both consoles.

I have Guitar Hero on my Wii. Wireless controls FTW
Rebecca li Posted at 4:08 am on Dec. 30, 2008
I was leaning more towards the PS3 anyway. Thanks guys!
