Black Friday is tommorrow, and there are some decent deals for the PS3 and XBOX 360. I was thinking of getting one of the systems. I was just wondering what the people of TL thought of what they have and if they had any particularly good or bad experiences with either console.

I have both systems. I've gotten the RROD once with my xbox360.

Of my three ps3's none of they have given me any problems.

I've had way more fun on my ps3's though. And they play blue-ray!

Have an Xbox 360. Good stuff.

It all depends what games you're into and what you're friends are playing. The PS3 is going to churn out some better looking games but the online experience for the 360 is untouchable.

On that note, PS3 doesn't really have the exclusive games that are amazing. There's resistance and resistance 2, but from what i've heard, those were pretty mediocre. 360 has a great library of exclusives that include: Gears of war, Halo 3, Fable II, err can't really think about it right now, but especially since FF 13 was announced on the 360 as well, if i had to chose 1, go for the 360.

edit: Right, there's MGS: Guns of the Patriots. I thought there were some better exclusives for xbox 360 but my memory is faulty, i think they're getting bioshock 2 faster? Dunno, but MGS is a solid game.

From what I've seen, there aren't that many significant exclusives for either console. There's Fable 2 for the 360 (I don't really care about Halo and I try to get the PC versions of Bioware games, i.e. mass effect). The PS3 has Valkyria Chronicles (which looks interesting). So yeah, I guess I probably wouldn't go wrong with either choice.

Is the hard drive size significant? (Or have you found yourself limited by the one you have?)

Get the xbox 360 arcade for black friday $200 price and then grab the upgrade bundle here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/hddoffer/default.htm for $30 that will get you a 20gb hard drive and three months of xbox live gold. For $230, you can't beat it. Although, if you don't mind ebay, you can get a xbox 360 premium for as low as $160 shipped. Just got mine for $165 last week and it is awesome along with the xbox experience.

Well Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix just came out for PS3 if you're into that. It's only 15 bucks and you can just download it.

It's also pretty sweet that you can just get on youtube and such on a PS3, however, it laaaags.
It also doesn't read the youtube plugin half of the time, so you'll load a page, and nothing comes up. Try again, and you get an error and have to shut down. Also, trying to play Street Fighter with lag? No fun.

The PS3 exclusives also aren't that great. MGS4 is fun the first couple times you beat it, but thats about it. Mirror's Edge is for PS3 AND 360, and it's a great game. They can both play DVD's, and overall, I'd say that the 360 is more reliable.

There's my opinion.

360 is where it's at. It has a excellent catalog of games out; I can only think of a handful of games on the PS3 that you MUST play and that aren't on the Xbox 360.

Resistance
Resistance 2
Little Big Planet
Metal Gear Sold 4

... that's about it that I can think of.

I pretty much bought mine for MGS4 and Final Fantasy; and the latter is now coming out on the 360.
