which is the better games console PS3 , are the XBOX 360 ELITE

xbox 360...(microsoft backed)...

I agree with The Leopard

no idea. ive got a ps3 and i imagine the xbox is better for games but the ps3 is great for videos etc. bluray player. plays video files really well, like you could have loads of ripped movies on the hard drive and the menus are fast and easy to find stuff. it takes forever but ideal for backing up a dvd collection to save the dvds getting scratched. if you arent bothered about any of that though i expect the xbox is better for just games.

If you have an HDTV get a PS3.

You have to pay for XBox's internet via Xbox live.

We have both consoles and PS3 is a far better machine.

only one way to find out FIGHHHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

xbox live costs £23 for a year and imo it pays for itself.

PS3 costs £0 and £23 can get you a decent pre owned game.

do you get a headset with ps3 for online

theres games on the playstation network though not that many. so far ive only bought 3 games on it, all 3 command and conquer ps1 games only 2.39 each i think they were. doubt your kids will wanna play those though. i dont know much about xbox but i know im impressed with the ps3. its as quiet as a mouse for a start, not like the ps2 that whurs like crazy when you play a dvd. and the wireless controller is great. the menus are fast and easy. xbox may have all those plus points too, i dont really know.

i would say it all down to ur son/daughter if all their friends have xbox then get that or vise versa

Have to pay for the PS3 headset.

If Only makes a very valid point.

i can imagine a ps3 headset costing mayb £20 might b wrong but comes free with xbox

thankyou fellas for your replys, very helpful.

dunno about xbox but new ps3 is awesome , play movies and music from my computer wirelessly and pictures too ,plays blu rays awesome with surround sound too

did i say thats its awesome :)

blu ray and uncharted 2
you have to get it for those alone

the ps3 that is

i cant get my ps3 to stream video wirelessly. well...i can...but it keeps stuttering so not worth it. any ideas why? my videos are handbrake m4v files. ie not ipos m4v. i found it to be the best quality at a reasonable size, about 1gb per movie. they dont play very well in windows media player but play fine with vlc player and on the ps3...except when streaming from pc. maybe its cos theyre on an external hard drive?
