    The PlayStation 3 (often abbreviated PS3) is the third home video game console created and released by Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.

    PS3 only owners, what about the 360 makes you want to buy one the most?

    Also ever multplat is better on it graphically, the online play is superior in everyway, it upscales games and movies fine, all controllers have rumble, music visualizer for ipods when you have party

    The main reason i would to buy the 360 is for Fable 2.  After that, I would buy other exclusives for it, buying a system for one game is a waste.  But the main reason would be Fable 2.

    I wouldn't call them system sellers. I play lots of halo 3, gears has great campaign while halo has good multi player. But scratch what I said about the 360 and chicks. I get so much chicks with that ps triple.

    Honestly, those reasons all suck. My main reason to get a 360 would be to game with some friends who are too cheap to get a PS3.

    I have to say the exclusives. I really would like to play Castle Crashers with my friends, among others. Still not reason enough to buy a 360.

    Maybe only the exclusives, and that only goes as far as fable 2. Couldnt care less for halo, gears etc.

    If I were to buy a 360 again, which would mostly likely not happen, it would be for Fable 2, or Left 4 dead.

    i used to have one and I got rid of my 360 to get my PS3.  The one thing that kills the 360 for me is that you have to pay for online play.

    So, the only reason I did buy one was because I wanted Gears of War 2 and i bought the system for $40 from my friend.

    There's a larger, active player base in XBL (just saying from my experiences of HD Remix on PSN). Probably gonna get one this year if XBL's SF4 player base is larger or if it has better connection than PSN.

    The only reason i would buy an X-Bawks is  so i could benifit from MS money-throwing around when it comes to exclusives(Fallout and GTA DLC, Fable 2). But otherwise i like everything else about the PS3 more(IMHO) it looks cooler(the system itself), i like the XMB more then the "Xbox experence"(and plus it doubles as a weapon if someone tries to break in).

    I have friends that own both systems .  I have a PS3 only but the only game that holds any interest for me is Fable II on the X360 .   As far as trying to compare visual quality i've noticed that there really isn't much to pick at , and even then the things that are noticable would only be apparent when standing the systems side by side on the same HD Screens and those are minor .  Personally i think all your X360 belong on a PC .

    I miss my 360...but I don't miss the glitchy wireless adapter, nor do I miss the way the sound blipped out during games periodically.

    What I miss about the 360?
    1. Fable 2
    2. Gears of War 2
    3. Banjo Kazooie:Nuts
    4. a shit load of friends playing games on it.
