"To me, its irrelevant what he says. I bought a PS3 because I own an extremely nice PC. Any game that I would ever want to play on the 360, I can pick up for my computer, and it will look better. The PS3 doesn't share anywhere near as many titles with the PC, so it makes sense to own it for me.As far as which system is more capable, I would never rely on the opinion of one guy. HD-DVD can hold 15GB on a single layer, and 30GB on a dual layer. Blu-Ray can hold 25GB and 50GB, respectively. That's a lot of extra space, and if used properly, it should mean that PS3 titles have an edge of 360 titles, considering that both systems are admittedly very powerful."

The 360 fanboys are butthurt because of the many games the PS3 is getting, but that`s the truth. If you knew anything about software projects you would know that the choice of the technology can greatly influence how fast it can be done. The "game development cycle" is that long, not because of any hardware, but because of game developers themselves that chose a non-scalable technology for developing games.And Killzone 2 looks unlike anything out there, because it is not just a matter of pixels on a screen (we aren't in the 16 bit era anymore), but because of the lighting and particle effects and all the shit going on. Other 360 games look simpler in comparison."

"This argument is as stale as the bread in my trash bin"

"I could believe this, since the PS3s use Blu-Ray yet still dont seem to really out-do the 360. If true, this is embarassing for Sony, who had an extra year and charged twice as much for their console.

The PS3 is starting to sell in Japan thanks to the Final Fantasy XIII demo, but it obviously wont have that advantage in America. Frankly, I think Sony is in trouble, if not just because the only must-have game (in my eyes) is Metal Gear Solid 4.

"Let's talk more and more trash about the ps3 so that sony lowers it's price. Then I can finally play MGS4. Cos it's the only reason I have to buy one."

Most people would pay more for a hardware that won't break in a few months than pay many times for the same broken product. The ones most concerned about price seem to be fanboys, because that's the only thing the 360 has better than the PS3 now (relatively better, because the 360 hardware is assembled with spit from slave workers working 18 hours a day somewhere in Asia).In the end the PS3 is cheaper than the 360."

Because this conversation was all about how expensive the consoles are right? I believe the original conversation was about the power of the consoles, not how often they break or how much they cost, or where they were built (So Playstation 3s are built by blue collar angels in heaven? Give me a break). It seems that every time you comment, the thread you comment in gets off topic, so maybe you should stick to what the thread is about.

Wait, did you actually play Valkyria Chronicles or not?  Because it's almost nothing like Fire Emblem."

Yeah, that sounds pretty ignorant, since Valkyria Chronicles has nothing to do with Fire Emblem, in gameplay, story, graphical style, time period/setting, and engines used."
