i own a ps3. sure the games have been mediocre but i stick with Sony 100%. Xbox 360 does have a better online system in terms of gaming, but you have to pay for it. with ps3 you have a built in blue ray player, bluetooth, and everthing is free online. it also boasts an internet browser so you can go on any website. also you dont need batteries to play wireless. so i think the ps3 is far superior.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but you do need batteries. Eventually the batteries in your controls will need to be replaced.

yes but like all built in batteries they die.

Ps3 also has a web browser though
.
yes i know that as i have both i was pointing out that Wii that cost less then half of PS3 original price has the same feature. the PS3 and 360 minus the blu-ray ( which was an established technology) are the same system, so whats does that say about sony. MS made it cheaper. I could of bought a 360 and a bluray player for the same price or maybe cheaper.

Just because the batteries are built in doesn't mean they aren't there. Every battery will eventually lose its capacity to charge.

Off the subject a little. Has anyone seen those flashlights that you shake to power? What if those were put into a game controller so when you shake it, it gives it power? That would be kinda cool.

i can't really commit to taking out a mortgage to afford either of them, though my old flatmate had a 360 and i started having childhood flashbacks. videogames are the brilliant really, i want an edible version of Splinter Cell that you play like an acid trip upon digestion. or something.

I really need to just leave this argument. Nobody is going to change their minds because of anything anyone says in this thread. We are all fanboys loyal to whatever our chosen system is.
That said, the PS3 wouldn't have been so god damned expensive if they had made a gaming system. Sony had to add Blueray, web browser, bluetooth, blah, blah, blah. Things that could have been optional and lowered the price. The browser for Wii is even optional for $5. MS had the HD-DVD option to add on. Who cares if Blueray won, fact is that it was available when the outcome was unknown. It was not included so the price stayed reasonable. MS has wireless controls and headset. Out the gate you could get a 360 core with wired controls and no HD. If that is how you want to play, the option was available and it cost less. If you wanted to have HD-DVD, $200 and it was yours. Why do I need a web browser on my game system? I have plenty in my house already. 360 marketplace is more than enough for me. I can get things related to the reason I got a 360.
