Road rash was alright, but it doesn't really make up for all the way below average shovelware that they churn out though, does it?

I think the best thing they ever did was SSX.

If the games are lame arsed EA shite, then they're on both systems and it doesn't matter.

Neither system has been fully exploited from a dev standpoint yet. But, from what I've seen, the PS3 is difficult to dev for (as is all Sony hardware) but will yield more impressive results over time as the devs get more time with the system.
you work for EA or something, right?
Nah. I hate them and their shit games. A lot of mates went to work there and now wish they hadn't.

yeah EA games pretty much suck. desert strike was okay though. activision (blizzard, lol) games are ass too.

they're like the coke and pepsi of the games industry.

With PS3, its a piece of shit, but it has a Blue Tooth player, but doesn't play in full badass glory... get a 360 and fuck it... more games. PS3 is a complete failure IMO.

Its a tough one I have to say. I know the PS3 is the stronger console, it has 7 processers compaired to is it 3 gerneral purpuse processors in the 360.

Thing is...

GTA is only out on 360
360 has way more games
Massive online following
Did I say GTA....

PS3

Looking like its a brick in water, not sell os they have to slash prices
Not being easy tpo Dev for compaired to Microsoft who built software for the dev's to build easly!

Just being a lil bit of a techy my heart says go with PS3 cos after time it will be the better console, has to be once dev's start pushing it BUT everyone else says 360, games look mad plus did I say GTA...

Interesting reading your comments tho guys, same as what ppl say to me it seems to be 360 time!

I'll let you know the outcome...

not if you own a ps3...absolutely shocking port. 360 owners are far better off in this department.

from Konami themselves:

"Konami Digital Entertainment is aware that some players of PES2008 are experiencing 'stuttering' by their machine when playing on PS3"

it's not the only one either:

Assassin's Creed - "...a mocking shadow of the Xbox 360 version"

The Orange Box - "The 360 version takes about three seconds to load your last checkpoint if you die. The PS3 version takes seventeen"

Splinter Cell: DA - "...even though the game is belittled so dramatically from a visual perspective, it still manages to run at a lower frame rate than the Xbox 360 version"

DJ $hy wrote:GTA is only out on 360

if only this were true. GTA is not 360 exclusive. the downloadable content is the only thing that is exclusive. but imo that's enough to make the 360 the better purchase. who knows the limit to what they could add with dl content, new vehicles/weapons/missions/clothes!!

for me the ps3 will be worth buying when the ico/wanda and the colossus team release their game for it. that's the only ps3 exclusive content that excites me. by the time this comes out the machine will likely be retailing for £200 or under.
in terms of the other games available:
I literally haven't got time for final fantasy's.
gran turismo forgets about the key element of games...escapism, something which makes burnout the 1st choice for driving games imho.
i don't really like stealth/multiple ways to complete objectives (linear gaming is such a neglected/misunderstood concept these days), so metal gear isn't the one for me either.

right now i reckon 360 is the way forward. it has a decent catalogue of games, excellent online experience, is almost the same price as a wii(!!) and continues to get games released on it that were originally ps3 exclusive .

METAL GEAR = PS3 EXCLUSIVE.

I went Xbox route purely by accident geez. I was actually out shopping for lemsip and banana's whilst skiving from work with flu, but then realised buying an xbox was a better investment in my health. I think if you phone NHS direct they will confirm that.

Will prob get a ps3 next winter when the man flu season kicks in again.

Burnout is getting rave reviews. i kinda suck at driving games but if i was to buy one, it would prob be that.
