There's a supposed pricedrop soon, so I'd hold off. Not enough games to warrent a purchase I'd say.
I'd just trade in the games you don't like for credit or chuck em on eBay.

why do people say the PS3 hasnt got any games? it has loads of games infact most of the top titles that are on xbox360 appear on PS3 too like you call of duty series etc as most releases out there are multiplatform,Of course if you already own a xbox360 theres no reason to buy a PS3 at the moment as there are not that many exclusives,

This should be the deciding factor, really. Exclusives shouldn't be deal breakers. You have exclusives for this, exclusives for that, but the main, largest mass of games is the multiplatform games, and for the most part they look better run better on an Xbox 360.  |

I have both consoles, and I honestly don't notice the difference between the two looks wise.
I am not saying it isn't there, I am just saying i isn't a deal breaker.
No use posting screen shots to prove it to me. I have seen them all and know what is meant.

This is a better link:
http://www.eurogamer.net/archive.php?platform=digitalfoundry&type=face-off
It has reached Round 20 already. 
| Quote: | | "For the record, the PS3 version is softer due to the 'quincunx' anti-aliasing filter and the fact we render at about 75 per cent the resolution of the 360 version. So you cannot directly compare a screenshot of one to the other unless you scale them properly. The PS3 does have less available RAM than the 360 - but we managed to squeeze three out of four textures as full size on the PS3." |
Sounds convincing.
| Quote: | For a game that relies so much on its lighting, the good news is that Riddick is feature-complete on PS3. Anti-aliasing is in too, although once again it's the quincunx variation that matches the edge-smoothing of 360's more memory-intensive 4x multi-sampling AA, but comes at the cost of adding a blur to the entirety of the texture detail. In the case of Riddick, this is magnified somewhat by the reduced resolution and also the grain/noise filter.
Although significantly improved over The Darkness, resolution is still sub-HD: 1024x720 to be precise, giving 360 a clear 20 per cent boost in detail. Most sub-HD games tend to render the image at the lower resolution before magnifying the image up to 720p and adding additional elements like the HUD and on-screen text (thus keeping those finely detailed elements looking good and crisp). Riddick on the other hand simply uses the PS3's hardware scaler to enlarge the entire frame-buffer sideways - easily noticeable as the text is considerably chunkier and fatter than it is on 360.
Overall impressions are that the PS3 version passes muster, but it's significantly blurrier than the 360 build and there are other cutbacks too - the most notable being the paring down of transparent textures (for example, fences). Polygon tearing in the demo has been identified as a reason for preferring the look of the PS3 game, but the fact is it's in that version too - it's simply less noticeable owing to the resolution upscale and quincunx blurring. Also curious is that the 360 release comes with a range of video profiles that allow you to subtly change the look and post-processing of the game's visuals. These are absent in the PS3 code. |

Yeah. . . I know exactly what you are talking about but unless you have the fucking consoles going side by side, you don't notice it.
Doesn't really matter to me, because I own both consoles.
I bought PS3 for Demon Souls alone.

Why would you ignore the exclusives. They are the sole reason you would buy one console over another and as far as I'm concerned the PS3 has the exclusives I want (whether it's those already released, or those coming in the near future). The fact it has multi-platform titles which are also available on the 360 (and/or PC) is merely a bonus - and having played (and own) GTA4 on both PS3 and PC I can tell you the only discernible difference is control scheme. Unless you're a graphics whore, getting hung up on these comparisons is bafflingly pointless. |
Well we are not talking about the graphics here but the fluidity of gameplay...multi games on PS3 run like shit and look like crap compared to xbox360
game X should be same on those two platforms but it ain't , thats why PS3 is only made for exclusives and for multis its xbox360... and its a proven fact
@Big_Gun
same here have both ... on the 7th xbox360 (all 6 RRORD and it wasn't heat fucking cheap hardware... but hey allways got a free gift from M$ plus allways like 1200ms point gift card so it a plus) and on the 3trd PS3 (compared to M$ , $ony has better customer support i have ever seen ... and yeah those two ps3 where out because of blue laser failure {it stopped reading BD/CD/DVD disks}, hey atlest i had got two free games from this  )

Unless you're a graphics whore, getting hung up on these comparisons is bafflingly pointless. |
Because they are numerous, while the majority is multi-platform games. At the prices consoles are sold here, I'd go for the best console overall. Buying a console for 10-20 games in its lifetime is pointless to the point of absurdity, really, especially when I'm sure one doesn't like all the exclusives. This is the main reason I don't see a point in buying a console currently, none of the exclusives make it worth it for me. So for someone who doesn't see the PC as a viable gaming platform, he should first and foremost consider the quality of multiplatform games. The exclusives are the bonus; saying multiplatform games are the bonus is outright dumb, especially at the price Sony is asking for its console. You can see this in the sales figures, obviously a lot of people see things like I do, that the overall package must be good, not just the 10-20 exclusives.
As for the graphics, being someone that notices difference between 1080p and 720p on 32" monitors (yes, there are a lot of us out there), I see no point in settling for the lesser quality. Call me a graphics whore, I don't care. I prefer the term quality whore.
On the other hand, the hardware problems can prove too big of a hassle for people in problematic countries, where MS doesn't replace the console automatically if a problem arises.
Of course, none of these points are important for people who have cash to shell out, and already have the two consoles, plus a gaming PC. But even in this scenario, it is interesting to see that they still prefer playing multiplaform games on the Xobx 360, proving the points I made above. |

Yes, but there's a thing called money.
Also, people saying that 360 or PS3 doesn't have exclusives are either delusional or brainwashed fanboys.

Exactly, it is very easy for someone to go out, shell cash and buy all consoles, then say "oh, it's just a bonus to have multiplatform games". |

10-20 exclusives is pretty damn good number to buy a console for. And I predict that by the end of PS3's lifetime there wll be like 40-50 exclusives that I'll be interested in, because I already count like 15 released ones that I would love to play.

It's not a proven fact at all. There are multi-platform titles that perform and look better on the PS3 and PC and the difference between the so called inferior ports is often overblown and nowhere near as bad as the exaggerated claims make it out to be. Further to that; a good game is a good game and I've enjoyed playing games on the PS3 that later turn out to be in some way inferior in the eyes of internet fanboys. To the person sat down playing on his console, this is a non-issue.
| Quote: | | Buying a console for 10-20 games in its lifetime is pointless to the point of absurdity |
Ignoring the annual updates to games like PES I probably bought much less than that for my PS2 and pirated, rented, borrowed the rest. The same thing for my PS3.
| Quote: | | This is the main reason I don't see a point in buying a console currently, none of the exclusives make it worth it for me. |
Then you have very strange tastes in games - or you are just ignorant to the riches of games on all three major platforms.
| Quote: | | The exclusives are the bonus; saying multiplatform games are the bonus is outright dumb |
| Quote: | | Why everyone acts like there are no exclusives for Xbox360? |
There are exclusives on all systems. The question is which exclusives do you value the most. If you value PS3 exclusives over the 360's then the PS3 is obviously going to be the most attractive by virtue of the exclusives. Multi-platform titles are available on both platforms and the difference in quality is nowhere near as bad as people enjoy suggesting. Take it from someone who actually knows.

Eh, no not really, I just don't find them that appealing to buy a console for them. Sure Forza is nice (or Gran Torismo), but is it that good? No, not really. Same for Uncharted, and all the others. These are games that I would of course play, and maybe enjoy, but buying a console at the price stores are asking for them here in IL? Not really. Doesn't make my taste in games strange (although it is).
For instance, the last time I chose to invest money for gaming, I weighted all the options (including the unfortunate condition of Xbox 360 hardware in hot weather), and decided to buy an 4870X2, because first and foremost, the multiplatform games look best on that. Now, of course, having games like Anno 1404 and Cryostasis look and run well is a great bonus.

Really? And do you find them all so appealing? Really? Or is it fanbois' way of telling how good their console is? [This is targeted at all platform, people, not just PS3] Because what usually happens is you like 3-5 games out of these and the rest are just "hey my console has this and that and yours doesn't" |
