The reason why PS3 costs so more is because they are better. XBox 360 is poorly made and has a low life span. On PS3 you get Blue Ray and a lot other nice things. I own a PS3 so I actually have the right to say if it is any good, and it is. The PSN is free and it runs smoothly. Ya the Xbox live probably runs better, but some people dont need all that stuff you get when you get Xbox live. Reason why Xbox sells so many is because they are cheap. Ever heard of the ring of death. If Microsoft would actually use better material then plastic then their would probably be no ring of death. When people buy game consoles, they expect it to last for a while. Even though the PS3 isnt cheap, you dont have to worry about it breaking in a year if you are not careful.
right mate,
first off my xbox has lasted me well over 2 years now with no problems. the red ring of death was fixed in the new 360 slim models and hardware updates were issued to protect the older models from getting the problem. as i recall sony had a massive problem when its ps3 was released because of the hard drive disk actually MELTING so dont talk down xbox because of past mistakes
secondly, 360 offers features for its $60 a month live plan such as beta tests on games that wont be out for months (gears of war 3), movies can be watched online, facebook (i know sony has that too), game avatars and foxtel, which sony most definately doesnt have so dont judge xbox by the complaints it has recieved, especially since there are many more positive comments out.
and finally, have you checked the statistics lately.. xbox has sold almost 14 million more consoles than ps3
i think you just got told
Correct me if I am wrong but do you not have to pay and extra subscription for foxtel? So it isn't what you pay for with your xbl subscription and playstation has lovefilm and play tv so they certainly do have similar services.
The only reason xbox 360 have more consoles sold is because they got the head start that is it. Their console came out first and a lot of people decided not to wait for the ps3 to come out and get the xbox and as a consequence if people wanted to play with their friends they would normally have to buy an xbox. I was even considering getting an xbox at the start but I decided to wait until the playstation came out and I am glad I did.
I also don't remember this hard drive problem you talk of and considering I got my playstation on the day it came out and was first in the queue at the particular shop I bought it from and also that I had that exact same playstation for like 4 or 5 years and the only problem I have had was the bluray laser died about a month ago and still an easy problem to fix. You would think I might have noticed this problem. I can't seem to find any reference to it anywhere. I didn't go through every page on google but I thought it would come up in google under either ps3 hardrive melting manufacturing defect or fault but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
I don't think xbl is any better than the psn at all and maybe it used to be a long time ago but it certainly isn't now. Psn has everything that xbl has for free. I have played many beta games etc on the psn for free a long time before they came out.
I personally think that neither console is superior to the other but I do not believe you should have to pay for xbl it is daylight robbery considering you get nothing extra oh wait sorry you get a cod dlc a month early and become beta testers for 3arc. That is the only thing I have seen that you have that psn doesn't at the minute.
