Already got a 360.. is it worth it getting a PS3 too?

chigley · 12-04-08, 02:20 PM

Hey guys,

I know there've been a lot of 360 vs PS3 threads but this one's a tad different.

I already have a 360 and, looking at my greens, I don't know what to get. A lot of people have been ranting and raving over the PS3, but, is there much that it does that the 360 doesn't?

I was hoping people would be able to speak from experience. Should I get a PS3 even though I already have a 360?

Charlie

I've had both and i have run them along side one another. It's a 360 all the way for me the online gaming is fab and i find the controls are more comfy and there's more choice of games but then again i did have the PS3 when it 1st came out so the choice of games wern't that great. And to be totally honest my 6 year old hogs the 360 so who am i to say lol

I have an elite, but want a ps3 for the gt5 experience!!! plus the bonus of bluray if you are a film person!!

claire80 · 12-04-08, 02:40 PM

do you have time for another console ? i sold mine cus i knew it would just gather dust i dont play the 360 and the wii as much as id like.

Claire, he's 15 he should have time for another console!

A PS3 is worth having even if just for GT5.

I do think that's a good point...I certainly couldn't find time for the PS3 while I have a 360. I have a 360 elite but was tempted into buying a PS3 so I went out and bought one...it was on ebay the next month.

I found myself not really playing the PS3 at all...

well ive got a 360 and im going for a ps3 because i want a blu-ray player plus i wanna play gtaIV on the ps3 because thats what my mates will be playing it on. but apart from that there isn't much between them.

have you got an hdtv? maybe get one of them

chigley · 12-04-08, 04:14 PM

Thanks for the replies guys.

Yes I'm 15 and yes I have an HDTV and no I wouldn't have time to play it to be honest!

Doctor · 12-04-08, 04:19 PM

salzy · 12-04-08, 04:20 PM

Right decided not to get the PS3, simply because you can only play one at once and there aren't enough differences to make it worth the while.

Which poses the question - what shall I get with my greens!? I currently have 41g 3p, and don't have a clue what to get!

claire80 · 12-04-08, 10:23 PM

get a nice macbook or a big bank transfer and then spend it when you find summat you want
