the PS3 is simply a better system known world wide. u have already named a couple of the better features urself. the XBox 360 has NOTHING better than the PS3. it also has NOTHING that the PS3 doesnt already have. and it simply doesnt have some of the things that the PS3 has also. lets start with the grafix. to be honest... they arent really worth comparing but i have owned them both and i have sold my XBox 360 because i was in so much of a rush to get rid of the crappy system. ive owned both the same titles on XBox and PS3 and noticed that the PS3 games looked way better and into detail. u have to purchase the wireless XBox controller.... all of the PS3 controllers are wireless. the XBox has a bulky wired head set for their internet chat... while with the PS3 (since it has built-in bluetooth technology) u can use the same small bluetooth headset that u would use with ur phone ON THE GAME CONSOLE. how convenient and universal the PS3 makes ur wireless headset. oh i forgot.... the XBox has a wireless headset also.... but u cant pair it to ur phone, HA :D. as for online gaming. who can really compare the online gaming??? thats so false what the guy on the first page said. the online gaming performance ALWAYS depends on ur broadband connection, not the console itself. so the online gaming is completely the same. BUT!!!!! XBox u have to pay monthly.... sony made theirs free of charge to have fun. the built-in SixAxis is a really cool feature in the PS3 controller if u do choose to use it. i myself use it very little, but it is still a nice feature to have. its xtremely fun and makes u feel more into the game if u ask me. just like the Nintendo Wii. the XBox does non of this. the XBox has no built-in cooler and the system runs VERY HOT!! run it too long..... and its gone! trust me. i've owned 3 of the peices of crap and its true. u have to buy and external system cooler and it still doesnt work cuz my second XBox over heated too... and once again, i was introduce (FOR THE SECOND TIME) to the "Red Rings OF Death". and the XBox doesnt have to over heat to give you the "Rings OF Death". just simply try to turn it on one day and u will see them... TAA DAAA lol. u have to turn it on and off about 30 times to finally get it to come on. that IF u didnt already over heat it. cuz then its GONE COMPLETELY. the PS3 always turns on. ALWAYS without a problem. remember this popular slogan? well this time lets point it toward the "Ring OF Death"...... "ONLY ON THE XBOX 360" lmao. trust me bro. i dont think anyone else can tell u any better. ive owned them BOTH and the PS3 is just way better. everyone knows. even those people that try to lie and say the PS3 is worse. even they know the PS3 is better. numbers never lie so take a look for urself at the console sales. the Nintendo Wii sold the most.... PS3 sold alot right underneath it..... the XBox sold not even 1 Forth compared to both consoles. everyone knows it for its bad rep. and now that bill gates retired and the head guy for it games is gone too...... what future do they have now??? and look at it this way man. if all the other reasons are not good enuff... the PS3 is STILL THE CHEAPEST BLUE-RAY DVD PLAYER U WILL EVER FIND! simple as that. enuff said yet?? sorry for the long post. just wanted to point u in the right direction. u get what u pay for. dont buy something that not going to last, let alone entertain you. :)
