This is the classic topic that every (and I mean 3V3RYB0DY) and they moms love to talk about. I don't even think you flamers and fanboys care where this is placed so im going to place it in the most common area where people visit.
Why is xbox better then the ps3?
why is the hackbox 3fixme better then the paymorestation free? (these names are actually used by both fanboy groups, it's hilarious)
Who will live longer in the console wars 360 or ps3?
Please debate now!

I don't think one or the other is better as it comes down to personal preferrence. I like the 360 because of the controller, it just feels natural in your hands.

Umm considering all 3 consoles come out in cycles at relatively the same time...they will end at the SAME time.

the life span of the old xbox has ended about 1 year after the xbox 360 was released as ps2 is still collecting titles.
that's not neccessarily true.

But it's nothing near the main focus. Once the PS3 came out, it instantly shifted towards that console as the new thing and the "console war" officially started once all 3 had finally came out. God of War 2 was the final big title for the PS2 and that came out in 2007. After that it was just little games here and there, so i don't really count that as "collecting titles."

the ps3 supposedly had a 10 year replacement plan (so no new system for awhile yet) the xbox3 should already be nearing completion as MS had a more traditional 5 year lifetime expectation. I'd expect a new xbox to be announced sometime next year at the latest with a ps4 maybe not being announced as sony's shareholders are pressuring them to move away from the expense..

i am pretty sure the underdog will win, well not underdog really because it has had the most sales a LOT in the past, and with a new triple A title coming out and Red Steel 2...
but i guess people that like Wiis prefer inventive games are large varieties, because IMO most of the popular xbox games (or the ones i here people talking about ) are FPSs and make the occasional multiplatform rpg or fighting games (fallout 3 and soul calibar) but anyways, the PC dominates all the best RPGs, no NOT wow, i was thinking ... well i am not up to date on any NEW ones...
oh wait? is everything thing anyone willl ever say in this thread totally biast? not like there are many people that own a good pc xbox wii and ps3

So I'm a flamer if I say this doesn't belong here? I mean there is a forum for this and this isn't it. This is for a Q&A for Champs.
Ya know I really want to bust out on you, but I'm beginning to think you are the type of troll that feeds on people busting your chops so you can play the innocent victim. I mean you even anticipated it in your OP. So yea, lame = fail.

If a man's pulse has stopped... he is dead. If the man has a very small itty bitty miniscule, peck of a pulse. he is alive.
If a system no longer takes titles, it is dead. If a system takes any title, no matter how insignificant it is, it is still safe to say it is alive.

lame and fail aren't even synonyms, let alone numbers that you can just make up an equation to. They're words. even still if you wanted to say it shouldn't it be
"Lame = Phail"
me, play the innocent victim? more of what the joker did. I want ta see what people do and say.

yea... but it's not a troll from a kids book is it? that's where my point comes in. Especially where your comment states about it being a troll, not your signature suggesting it.

Ps3 hardware has the longer life expectancy. Just because as Carmack pointed out, the new texture engines can run 20 gigs worth of texture and the DVD won't cut it unless you want lots of discs.
I prefer the Xbox 360 for the free D/L content you can get just by playing games and the installable discs allow me to load reallly fast.
9/10 times I can't tell the difference between them when it comes to graphics. I think the Xbox is easier for companies to program for.
I think you get more for your money when you buy a PS3, though maybe not so much since the backwards compatibility ended. Still, not bad for a Blue-Ray/DVD, multimedia center, and game console.
As exclusive titles become rare, the real difference becomes less obvious.

no such thing as ps4. That was in the game enfarcer section of game informer. So it was a fake.

XBOX 360 will become like the PS2 is now eventually. There won't be a real "winner". Especially how now console releases arn't synched.
