Why get an xbox 360. It's right that the xbox is cheaper then a ps3. but when it comes to online gaming, then you have to pay for xbox live gold. so in the long run. is it not better to buy a ps3?

Well, Fable is on PC, too >.> That's the thing with XBox. Most of its best exclusives come out on PC sooner or later. Not so with PS3, with some exceptions. I pick PS3 just because of Nippon Ichi, personally. I get more playtime from a single Disgaea title than every game I've ever bought (combined) on 360.

360 has some great games. Halo 3 multiplayer is amongst the most fun I've ever had in multiplayer, and Shadow Complex might be the best "smaller"/Live Arcade game I've ever played. Those are the 2 things making me want to keep my Xbox. Also, it does have a couple of other good exclusives as well, so in the end, it just goes back to whatever your preferences are. Live Gold is often really, really cheap. I agree it sucks they charge you for it, but you do get quite alot for a small sum of money. Also, many multi-platform games (at least a while back) was much better optimised for 360 than the PS3. Not sure how it is now though.

Good question, 360 is like an underpowered PC with really few exclusives. If you like Halo, buy it, if you don't, well...

If you have no money, or not as much as you need to pay online, you can apply the Reset Glitch Hack and use xfire or things like that in order to play with friends.

I have Xbox360 and I can recommend it, it has some games that you won't be able to play on PC that worth buying the console, like: Forza Motorsport, Gears of War, Brütal Legend, Mr. Explossion Man, Deadly Premonition, Enslaved, and some more.

But, to be honest, PS3 has much better exclusive games than Xbox.

Deadly Premonition hasn't been released for PS3 yet... And it does matter considering that the multi-platform games are better on the 360.
The Xbox 360 exclusives are better, see my other post for proof

For me, the PS3 is far too expensive for a 6 year old console still. It's never had a killer app (for me - you might disagree) and its GUI is unintuitive.
THat said, microsoft has started to get on my tits with the constant advertising, expensive online component and lack of interesting exclusives in recent years. However, i still do prefer the console over the ps3.

However, all of these problems is why the PC is becoming bigger again.

Wow. I agree with every single word you said. every single one.
I will add, that Online is better on 360. VOIP communication is much better, if you intend to be social. Also, I believe the Achievement system is better implemented than Trophies for PS3. PS3 has the added benefit of still being one of the best Blue-ray players on the market.

All of this usually comes down to games, which is a matter of taste. I admit PS3 has better exclusives, but I still prefer X360. I own both, and I only buy the exclusives for PS3. Everything else I buy on 360. Not sure why I do that, especially considering I usually have a suspicious distaste for Microsoft generally.

I would take the Ps3 over the 360 just because Microsoft has the nerve to charge for online...

PS3 over the 360 because it doubles as a nice blu-ray player(thats why I even bought a PS3(I bought the original fat one so I would have PS1/2 compatibility as well) -- Be warned if you get the original fat one it might YLOD of you and will cost you roughly ~120 to reball(this solution is more likely to last a lot longer than others) it if you include shipping to a reputable company to do it.

my 360 got good use first couple years(plenty of Halo 3, some ODST, fair amount of SC IV, Gears of War(only the first), but lately its been sitting there until I got a Kinect which gets me on my feet and moving while having fun, tbh the exclusived didn't do it for me, I preferred Halo 2/Mech Assault 1 online play from the original XBOX(and you can't go online with those anymore)

honestly I am done with consoles though these days(at least.. for the first 90% of their life.. I might pick one up on CL when the new one has a release date set)

Cartridge and PC gaming ftw :)

If you want ANY reason to get a 360 and i mean ANY, I would go with as been said exclusive games for the console, not sure if you are into all of them but having the system is nice to have the option of playing them, but then again if you're cool with someone they might let you borrow your system to play. (That's what i did to play Halo ODST) Bout to piss people off but Halo still one of the most overrated shooters, I'll take UT any day. So yeah Exclusives.
Another reason would be the game pads, not they are the greatest in the world but you get the wired one plug into your PC and no downloading of random crap to get it to work, it's just and instant gamepad for your pc. Now don't get me wrong if your getting a whole system just for this you're dumb just go buy one as a gamepad if this is only reason you want it.
But as said online is technically better, the reason you have to pay is they do a little more upkeep on their servers, and have (as far as I've seen) 0 downtime, in all honesty I have never went to get on XBL and been unable to connect.
But only real reason I'd get an xbox over ps3 would be the exclusives. Ps3 while costing more can be used as a bluray player, free online, handles cross platform games (those that are able to) while xbox is only other xbox systems, and has more exclusives. All in all it's your choice, the only reason I have a 360 myself is I picked it up off a friend for $25, 250Gb xbox elite system, 2 controllers, 2 headsets, kinect, chatpad, and cords too hook it up, no games but for 25 can't complain.
Take what you want from it but in all honesty only reason I see to get any console over a pc would be exclusives.

Well if you like the exclusives for Xbox 360 more than PS3, then get an Xbox 360, but if you like PS3's exclusives more than Xbox 360's, then get a PS3.

My xbox 360 has become more of a media centre than anything else. It performs this role really well, as for games it comes down to your preference in controller when comparing against the PS3 and what first party titles you prefer, although many come out on PC eventually if you are the patient type.

Personally the new nintendo console looks pretty good but I am sure it will be outclassed by the next gen of sony and xbox but yeah, not a deal which you get anymore.
