Ok so I have a PS3 and love it to death. But I'm considering getting a 360 or a PSP but I can't decide which and I don't really have the money for both.

What I'm really looking for are RPG games since the PS3 lacks in those. PSP has games like Crisis Core and Star Ocean. But the 360 has Infinite Undiscovery and Star Ocean. Also, I tend to play my PS3 ALOT so I guess it could end up being a waste to buy a 360 seeing as how I could end up playing my PS3 too much to have time for it.

So basically, what's on the horizon for these two consoles since I'm basically torn between them? And which do you think would be better for someone who's looking for solid RPG's, along with a solid mix of other, non-FPS games. I love shooters, but for some reason FPS's lately haven't lived up to my desires.

the psp is really dieing.  

  if you like RPG      

  Fable 2 is out soon. and what makes you so sure you are gonna play the ps3 more?


   

 The fact that most games that I'm really truly looking forward to are coming out on the PS3, such as LittleBigPlanet, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, and Final Fantasy XIII. Yes I know FFXIII is also on 360 but I'm going to get it for the PS3, largely because it's the lead development platform meaning it will almost surely be better on there, and if not, well I'm still more comfortable with that controller.


 

 you do relise they said there are no plans to have any diffrences in both games.  

 and if you do get a 360, you'll want a load of games on that, sure it'll take a little tim, but you don't know


I am aware of that but Final Fantasy is a Sony brand in my mind. Just like Gears of War is a Microsoft brand to me. It's what I grew up playing FF on and now it's just kind of ingrained there. And I'm really only hesitant because I haven't heard of any truly great non-shooters on the 360. And yes I love shooters, but only sometimes. But anyway thanks to everyone for the input.


If i started with nintendo and recnized good games i would have grown up with it on nintendo consoles

Funny that, FF is more of a Nintendo thing for me. Then Sony took it. Now Square are whoring themselves to everyone.


they usally go with the most popular console.  as the 360 is strong as well in the us and europ, they'll make more money, the greedy bastards lol
