PS3 vs. Xbox 360

Posted by Zonk on from the content-vs.-form dept.

The Guardian Gamesblog has a point by point breakdown of the Xbox 360 and PS3 spec sheets, comparing and contrasting the two consoles based on what we know about them so far. In the end, they come to the rational conclusion that for gamers what will end up deciding the battle is the gameplay. From the article: "We've pretty well reached the point of complexity with dual analogue sticks, analogue triggers and four face buttons, so while you can expect to see more content in terms of things happening, not much originality was on display. Gameplay advances will come from peripherals and Sony really showed that off with their kooky EyeToy games. Nothing wrong with controlling two bondage-clad Japanese spy chicks via videoconfering in my mind :)"

    Yes there is. Not everyone is an undersexed video game geek, so grow up.

    Sex is not the future of games, or if it is, I shouldn't consider myself a gamer any longer and just pass that title onto the hip, in-crowd who watch MTV and get thier kicks from manipulating digital breasts.

    Otherwise I'd consider myself the biggest gamer-geek in the world, so it's quite sad when I call people like you an immature loser.

    Isn't time for you xbox fanboys to JUST GO AWAY.

    No one wants you around. You're the irritating losers of the console world.

    MS crapped out a turd of a console and no one wants to be near the thing. No one wants a wimpy console like the 360, let alone its fanboys furiously posting all over the Net.

    Just go the fuck away loser. The console world has left you in the dust.

    Keep American Dollars in the United States. Support your community and country. Buy American innovation and products from an American Company. Don't send your hard earned money to Japan. Just look what happened to American television manufacturing. Buy American, buy an Xbox 360.

    You can make a difference. Be an economic patriot and make a statement with your wallet. Don't help to "outsource" our economy.
