PS3 is the best next gen console - no argument.... ok, i am sure there will be, but here are my reasons
:
Firstly, The Wii is not a next gen console. Its a brillient fun little bit of kit (I own one) but a next gen console it is not.
This leaves us the 360 Vs the PS3
Reliabitly: We all know the PS3 wins this hands down. 360 has been plauged by the red ring of death since day one costing Microsoft millions and forcing them to extend all warrenties to 3 years.
Media: Without a doubt now the HD wars are over and blu-ray won, the PS3 has a massive advantage. Both can stream live media, but the ps3 has the bluray player, also an addon to act at Tivo (HD Television recorder) and interactivity with the PSP with media content. The 360 HD-DVD add on is now a brick.
Cost: The 360 costs the same if not more than a PS3 if you want it to have the same functionality as the PS3 always has. The 360 Elite was a step closer to beating the price, but then HD-DVD failed so now you need a stand alone bluray player too.
Noise: FFS have you heard the 360??? It's like a bloody aircraft taking off!
Looks: PS3 Wins - come one! looks at it - its shiney!
Power: PS3 wins. Big time
Now, here comes the grind. PS3 wins in every department but one. and its a biggie!
Games... lets face it, the PS3 has bugger all in the way of games. What use is a next gen console without them?
However, the question is which is the best, 360 or PS3 well, I compare it like this... the 360 is a Suberu Imprezza Turbo. Its a lovely car, like shit off a shovel, decent power and a lovely drive (if not a bit noisey!
)
The PS3 is a Maclaren F1 - Unbelevibly fast, expensive, sleek and shiney and would kick the Suberu arse in a race. However... the Maclaren has no petrol in it. (No games... see what i did there...
) There is no doubt whatsoever
its the better of the two cars, but what bloody use is it without petrol? Its nice to sit in, and you look cool owning one but thats it.
Hopefully sooner or later sony will get there arses in gear and put the bloody petrol in!
(analagy stolen from workmate I just spoke to - apologise if those are the wrong cars of they are spelt wrong!
