OT: Fanboy fight: XBox V Playstation

I ended up going with a PS3. I appreciated everyone's input but the advice that resonated the most with me was "**** it and buy both"...but though that didn't make sense for me today, I intend on having both shortly (out west for 6 of the next 7 weeks starting Thursday, so I'll grab the other when I get back)

I had owned a 360 before and knew the deal with them, so I said **** it, I'll get the one I've never had before.

Got NHL 13 and a God of War pack with it

Thank you kindly to everyone who weighed in on this, I appreciate the assistance.

God of war is fun. Get uncharted 2 as a greatest hit for 15 bucks or so. That game is so fun. Best beginning of a game ever

Nice... I definitely would have went with PS3 first as well. If I was single and making good coin I'd also likely own both. Once you get an xBox, if you end up on xBox live looking for a game of hockey let me know.

Re: OT - Fanboy fight: XBox 360 V PS3

I have a PS3, but I'm not a gamer. I will play a sports game every now and then. But I use mostly use it for bluray and netflix. I like it.
 
Re: OT - Fanboy fight: XBox 360 V PS3

It helps to be in the right mood for it, but try Journey. It's different, more of an experience than a game.

Yeah, absolutely plan on getting Xbox Live when I get my 360 in a few weeks, I'll post my ID online as soon as I do.
 
Re: OT - Fanboy fight: XBox 360 V PS3

I will strongly recommend the Mass Effect series (all 3 games). Especially if you're into smart games and like space travel and exploration, it's got a little bit of everything. Cool story, good characters, lots of side missions, some RPG and FPS elements. Probably my favourite video games ever, so well done.

cska1911 is my PS3 id if you want your ass handed in NHL or FIFA
 
Re: OT - Fanboy fight: XBox 360 V PS3

Sweet jesus. Went to buy far cry 3 for the Xbox but it was sold out so I went with the ps3 version. Step one. 10 minti,e to load the game onto my hard drive. Then another ten for a system update then finally start it up again and then far cry now needs to update this is another 15 minutes. Now to play online I have to sign in for Uplay. Whatever the eft that is I have been in my basement for 35 minutes and I have yet to see the start screen.

This is what really sucks about the ps3 for gaming. Let me also say how much I flucking can't stand futureshop. It may be the one by me. But every time I go in, they are sold out. They are the flipping masters of the bait and switch. I always say I won't go in and be suckered again but I had a gift card that I needed to spend. I hate that place

Think their sales people are on commission so that's no surprise to me. FS is fine for if it's for something you specifically want (if it's in stock) but never ask them for advice on anything.
 
Re: OT - Fanboy fight: XBox 360 V PS3

I'll take the commissioned kids at future shop over the lazy idiots at Bestbuy any day of the week.
 
Re: OT - Fanboy fight: XBox 360 V PS3

I buy all that crap online. Cheaper and less idiots to deal with.
