Xbox 360 Vs PS3 - A Dilemma Many Face

Although the Xbox 360 hit the shelves well over a year before the PS3, there is now only about 100/$200 between the two systems. Many people have waited a year or so for both systems to have come down in price and for them to become established before making a relatively expensive purchase. The big question is, if you are only going for one of the two systems, which one should you go for?

Well, bear in mind that it is very hard to give an unbiased opinion as it will be based on personal experience and you will get different answers from everybody. However, as I was in exactly the same position only a few months ago, I can give you my opinion and why I chose the system I did. This is not to say that one is necessarily better than the other.

In the past I owned a Playstation, when this systems first came out then it was the most amazing thing I had ever seen and couldn't see how it could get any better, well that was until the PS2 came out of course. Towards the end of the PS2s life, the Xbox came out, I resisted this as long as possible as I was afraid it was another market that Microsoft was going to take out and eventually everything in the world would be Microsoft.

Up until this point, the Playstation had a few titles which were exclusive to the systems but now suddenly, you had the Xbox which had Halo and also Elder Scrolls you're your Morrowind (although this originated on the PC). I was so blown away by Morrowind that I bought the system for that one game. Also, Playstation no longer had exclusive rights to the Grand Theft Auto series, although for a while it would appear on the PS about a year before it was released on other systems.

On paper, the spec of the PS3 is much better, not only is it faster and has better graphics, it also contains the next generation of DVD players, the Blu Ray. It was the fact the PS2 had a DVD player which gave it a huge selling point, especially when trying to convince your partner that it was a worthy purchase, and not just for playing games.

However, Microsoft managed to get their next generation system out on the shelves way before Sony, so we have reached a point where the developers are really getting to grips with the system and are producing some truly outstanding games. What really swung it for me (apart from a cheaper price tag) was the fact that Xbox had a huge, thriving online community in the form of Xbox Live where you could play against or with friends online while chatting to them via the headset. The PS3 also has an online community which a built in 3d forum called Home, but this is still in its infant stage. Of course, if you have the money then go for both as they will each contain their unique good points.

Of course, if you are one of the many who need to fix 3 red light error then you can't do any gaming at all. I can show you steps that are free to take to help prevent this and how to fix 3 red light error if you already have it.
