Xbox 360 arcade console 280$
HD DVD drive 50$(not nearly as good as blu ray)
1.2 HDMI cable 60$ (not as good as 1.3 which ps3 has)
XBOX live 50$ (It's about the same as the PSN)
WIFI adapter 50$
final cost 490$
PS3 80 gig (after the price cut thats coming)400$
1.3 HDMI cable 15$
final cost 415$
Don't forget that they don't make HD DVDs anymore only blu rays, and the xbox live is 50$ every year, also think about the fact you you pay 490$ to get an xbox with almost as good features as ps3 and you still only have 20gigs.
PS3 is worth the money!
xbox 360 pricing to match ps3's features:
$349/$449- console
$50- XBL subscription(only for 1 YEAR) pay $50 every year
$100- wi-fi adaptor
$20- rechargeable battery kit
all comes out to $520/$620- add $50 each year you subscribe for XBL
by the way, xbox 360 does not have an actual HD playback because HD-DVD lost the format war... so no new movies are coming out on HD-DVD. if you want to watch HD-DVD then you would have to buy an HD-DVD drive add-on...
ps3 features:
$399/$499- console
spiderman 3 blu-ray movie/MGS4
online- free
rechargeable battery- built in the controller
wi-fi built in
blu-ray player(better than HD-DVD) built in
all comes out to $399/$499, oh my,look at that, its the same price as before
The 360 is a fine system. It is a simple fact though that the PS3 is far more powerfull.
The PS3 also has wifi, Bluray, a larger HDD, it upconverts DVD. It is true that the 360 game library is larger but the PS3 has been out half of the time that the Xbox has.
The 360 is taxed. Developers cannot squeeze anything more out of it. The PS3's capabilities have yet to be tested though.
If you buy all of the add-ons for the 360 that the PS3 comes with you will be spending much more money.
Did I mention that it's a freakin' Bluray player?
The PS3 will be the dominant system next year, mark my words. And why is it so expensive? Because it is a top of the line media hub.
You get what you pay for.
(And stop crying because you couldn't afford a PS3, you Xbox people)
The PS3 is worth more for your money, not only do you get to play online for free, but a PS3 is like a game console and Blu Ray player in one, not to mention built in Wi-Fi, and the ability to upscale your old DVDs as well.
To Mr X 297, you're obviously another 360 fanboy who has never played on a PS3, because not only does the PS3 have more variety of games, but better games as well.
Sure you got Halo 3 and Gears of War, we have Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted Drake's Fortune, Siren:Blood Curse, Ratchet and Clank, Warhawk, Resistance, Gran Turismo 5, and so on. Sure you got a hold of FF13, did I mention the ones that are remaing exclusive? Resistance 2, inFamous, LittleBig Planet, Afrika, Heavy Rain, God of War 3, etc?
Heck, I bet the closest you ever got to playing a PS3 was playing the one on display at a retail store so you could say "I played on a PS3, so u cant say I'm biased, lol"
but do the math you spend 60 dollars on xbox live a year which online is free on ps3
ps3 online is free
in the long run ps3 is much cheaper
