Not really, you also have to consider the quality of the ports, the capability's of the graphics, the hard drive space, the controllers, the fact you have to pay for xbox live, how much of a douche the people on each live are... etc.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

true but with the next gen consoles the ports are basically the same as is the graphics, the Ps3 is a hair better in graphics. controllers are basically a carbon copy with a different signature, You do have a point with the live but its only 50 bucks for a year, and bonus stuff. and there are some pretty douched up people on both as of yet the Xbox exclusives are better than the Ps3's but not by much, so its pretty much a toss up

Whether* Sorry.

haha no worries :) I actually slightly misspelled whether, and the auto spell check got to it with out me noticing.

I have a PS3 and I think it is better quality but I can also admit that way more people have Xbox 360 so live is way more fun.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

there are more people on xbox live because it has been out on the market a good while longer, and the graphics are better on the PS3 with a HD TV and all that, but its not that big of a difference, my friend has a huge HD TV and a PS3 and it looks amazing, and i have a xbox with the HDMI chord on my HD TV and they both look almost the same. also, while online for PS3 is free, in my opinion, (and my friend's opinion who is the owner of the PS3) agree that the services and features are better on the xbox, and both consoles have the douche bag annoying jack asses online, trust me I know, and while yes, the hard drive on the PS3 can be bigger, the xbox can have 250 gigs, and if thats not enough, you either need to stop playing that many games, or stop uploading all of your music on to it (:P), and as for quality, they are both decent quality, sure the xbox is slightly more fragel, but not by much, and so long as you take care of your equipment, its not much of a difference and the-

-controls are somewhat different, the xbox controller is bigger and feels less fragile, but the PS3 controller is much lighter and, and paying 50 dollars for playing online for an entire year isnt that much if you think about it.

Why am I the jackass? It's people who can't stop playing games that have a problem. Hahaha, and look at all the video game addicts who were offended by what I said. Just sitting there and playing games while life passes on, you gamer junkies will feel really stupid when/if you grow up.

because playing video games is a hobby its not just for little kids, in fact people make careers of it. Just because its not something you partake in doesn't mean that you have to insult other people. And one more thing i know plenty of "gamers" but not a one of them plays video games ALL the time. What you have sir is what is called a stereotype. as a person who plays video games avidly i also have other hobbies. get your facts straight

by Anonymous 13 years ago

People can make a hobby out of murdering people and a career out of prostitution, that's no justification for doing something. And I never said they play games "ALL" the time. I was only insulting the "gamers" because of how much time and money they spend on pointless games. I'm not speaking out of my ass here, I used to play video games too. But now that I've stopped it's pretty clear how much of my life was truly wasted on those stupid things.

(mastermind):Video games are different than murder. i didn't try to justify playing video games with that, i was just commenting on the fact that you said "Or maybe people can grow up and stop playing video games altogether". The fact that someone does what you used to do doesn't mean that they haven't grown up or that it is immature, it just means that it wasn't your thing. Spending time and money on something that you like and drawn enjoyment from is not pointless. that is like saying that spending time and money on a vacation is pointless, and its not. when you said they "can't stop" that isn't true either because if they couldn't how could they go to work to afford the games or the systems? And if you think that enjoying yourself is waisting your life then you need to reevaluate what you are doing and maybe you should start playing video games again ( that is if you ever did)

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Well, do you see anything wrong with a 23 year old man playing with Barbie dolls or some other "action figures?" If he likes doing this and "draws enjoyment" from it then is it ok? Would you consider this man playing with dolls for about 2-4 hours a day a little immature? Or would you consider it just fine simply because it wasn't your thing, but it might be his. The answer is no. Most people would laugh at a man like that because they are outside observers and it looks ridiculous to them. But to the man, and most kids, it is not at all immature to play with dolls. Similarly, "gamers" could never imagine themselves as immature, which is why they get so angry when others call them naive. And I didn't mean they "can't stop" literally, I meant they are addicted. Also, I should start playing video games again?! That's the worst advice I've ever received. The thought of playing games is laughable to me.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

actually the answer is yes. just because i don't like that doesn't give me the right to be judgmental of him. nor does the fact that many people would criticize him for it make it okay to do so. even if you are the type to judge people for things like that, video games are more socially acceptable and they are made for a wide range of people. You sir are narrow minded. and some gamers are immature and know it but not because they like to play video games. I have a question because i don't want to be a hypocrite, exactly how does playing video games make me naive? Being addicted means physical and psychological dependence on psychoactive substances. it means that an addict physically and psychologically needs what ever it is. so it means that they cant stop. I find it a little hard to believe that you ever played video games in the first place given how avid you are against them. I don't think that you realize just how narrow minded you are being about this.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

You can talk about the definition of addiction or get philosophical about being judgmental, but that's all irrelevant. Here's the point, I DID play video games and I don't know why that's so hard to believe. I'm sure there are many former gamers out there who finally see that all time and money they spent on games were a waste. When you're a kid that's not really important because it's usually not your money and time is not very valuable to you at the time. When you get older, however, both of those things become very important. This is where you become an adult and leave playing video games behind, but some people obviously don't do that. From a reasonable point of view, the better choice to make is to stop wasting time and money on games. And that's pretty much the difference between child and adult. The adult chooses logic over fun. But of course, it's your life and you can live it any way you want. I won't come to your house to stop you from playing games.

When I say "adult" I obviously mean the ideal adult, not the average one.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

okay, your picking at my words again and its starting to piss me off plus you didn't even answer my question. Anyways the point that I am trying to get you to see is that if you enjoy it then its not a waste of time. The most of the time miserable adult chooses logic over fun. But the logical adult sees that life is too short to go without fun, now don't get me wrong, money is very important seeing as we live in a market economy and a capitalist country, but living your life to the fullest is even more important. The reason i have a hard time believing that you ever played is that i know people who played video games all the time when they were younger like 20 who are now about 30 but none of them have ever said it was a waste of time and money. We have strayed way away from the original thing here which is that just because someone does something different from you doesn't mean that you have the right to insult them. i think your the one who needs to grow up

by Anonymous 13 years ago

i have another question for you though.... how old are you? because you seem way too immature to be over 12 not an insult but im just sayin

by Anonymous 13 years ago

"Life is too short to go without fun." Sounds like something a high school student would say to not do homework. Anyway, I can see that it's futile trying to get gamers to see the flaw in playing video games as a hobby. It's like trying to get a small child to not play with toys- it's impossible. This is just a lesson only time can teach you. I'm done, good riddance.

@996283 (MrMclovin): @996283 (MrMclovin): just my 2 cents, some people like working on cars, some people paint, others collect things, and some people play video games, You can make a career out of anything you do, and there will always be a narrow minded FUCK things your hobby is lame. I, myself am an avid harcore airsofter and gamer. This doesnt mean that is all I do, I have a beautiful lady friend whom I love deeply, I have many close friends, and I get out of the house almost everyday. Just because somebody plays alot of video games doesnt mean they are the stereotypical gamer and weak, fat, and have no social life
