The PlayStation 3 is a better system for gaming than the Xbox 360

My opponent raises some good points...but for me.1. Video games and DevelopersMy opponent says that the PS3 exclusives are superior in quality. He says that microsoft only cares about sales but his own link http://www.eurogamer.net..., confirms the opposite. It clearly states that Microsoft only cares about quality and bemoans Sony for rereleasing old games with a HD makeover.Now the reason why Sony appers to have better exclusives is because microsoft has moved away from big studios with big money and focused more on the little guy. Suprised? Don't be. Since the inception of Xbox live Arcade, the 360 has offered a marketplace exclusively for indie developers to make money. Microsoft also does not take a cut from sales of these indie games. Notice how PS3 doesn't have anything for indie developers because there is no money in it. In fact as soon as Kinect came out Microsift released the development kit for free just so people can tinker with it and find new creative useshttp://www.wired.com.... The PS3 move development kit has NOT been released.And if we're talking non-exclusives the PS3 is a mess to develop for. My opponent mentions the gaming juggernaut that is the Fallout series. A quick google search reveals that the ps3 versions is a mess. http://community.us.playstation.com.... The same thing happened with 2011 Game of the year, Skyrim. In fact the The 360 has had thw Dawnguard DLC for months while there isn't even a release date for playstation yet. Blame the developer? You could but even Gabe Newell, head of valve hates it http://kotaku.com.... 2. Features and online capabilitiesMy oppenent is absolutely correct when he states the Xbox live service is not free. But as a 3 year member, I would say this money is well invested. And not just me. The xbox 360 routinely outsells the ps3, which boldly states that more people would rather pay for xbox live than deal with the free PSN. Because PSN is not very good at all. I have a ps3 and I only use it for certain single player games. One problem with the psn is that their is no cross game chat. Meaning if I want to talk to a friend who but we want to play different games, this is impossible on the ps3 but on the xbox it can be 8 of us, all playing different games, all talking to each other. Another problem is the updates. My god the updates. Imagine waiting months to buy a certain game, you get home after purchasing pop in in your console, and now you have to wait hours to do so because you have to download an update that, as far as you can tell, did nothing. Oh and I should mention that these updates, which are 100% mandatory have a tendency to brick you console,which means it makes it unplayable, like a large brick. http://www.the-magicbox.com.... My opponent brought up the red ring of death problem for the 360 but that was fixed 4 years ago. This console bricking is still happening. But back to PSN. Another thing my opponent fails to mention is that all the best features require you to pay. Those features you have to pay for are all present on the 360 and the 360 has more. Much more. Here's a full list http://en.wikipedia.org...Yes, you read that correctly the xbox 360 can be used as a cable box, which would save you a lot of money on your cable bill. You see the xbox 360 only updates once a year. And it always adds a huge heaping of new features.I won't even bring up the whole deal with 20,000 credit card numbers being stolen from psn and the service being shut down for an entire month. Oh wait..... 3. Hardware and reliabilityFirst and foremost if hardware is an indicator of how good a system is than the Wii U is the greatest system of all time, a sentiment I'm sure my opponent doesn't agree with. True. The blu-ray operates at slower speeds but higher memory capacity but the only thing this changes is that games move slower on the PS3 while on the 360 you might have a game that comes with two disk instead of 1. Hardly an incovience.When it comes to resolution, both systems run at 1080p. I don't see his point on this one.So I argue that-Xbox cares more about quality than quantity and supports the smaller developers that Sony ignores.-Paying for Xbox live is better than using the free PSN -Games are easier to develop for the 360 while games come out broken for ps3I'm still holding back information. No need to play all my cards just yet.
