You see the smiles and sticking out tongues? That's usually a sign of a light mood. So attacks on me were misplaced.

So i'll accept your apology.

Hmmm.... not sure I subscribe to the "say anything you like and put a smiley on the end of it to make it alright" school of thought. Still, point taken.

Interesting at this point you still have to get a dig in and not accept any comments that you could contributed to setting the tone. /sigh

The difference in GTA4 is so small its negligible and the DLC is much more important than gaining slightly sharper shadows and washed out colours.

GT5P is nothing worth shouting about and resistance 1 was bland and generic but I do want the new MGS and I miss super stardust.

The DLC has yet to be revealed, so it is not much of a bragging point ( plus it will be expensive ... that you can bank on ).

All in all, get what suits your needs ..... a games console that has limited media potential or a games console with some of the best media playback features on the market, built in wifi and free online.

Nice contribution to a debate that has been good natured and quite intelligent for a change ( that includes me by the way

).

Nothing worth saying then ..... stay out of the thread.

Look, I know what I wrote and I know the tone of what I wrote, It was not in any way nasty, Bias or Fanboy. You just decided it was.

This could go round in circles, So I'm leaving it there. Apologies if you found what I said as nasty in any way. And I would just like to reenforce my stand point of making sure you realise i'm far from a fanboy. For 1 thing, I own a 360 and not a PS3. And i much prefer it for gaming.

A games console that still lacks in games and is still expensive for both hardware and software or a far cheaper console with a lot of amazing budget games now and a lower game launch price with a better online community and online features

Better online community is debateable!! Better featured hardware is always more expensive, games can be found for the same price ( shop around people ).

Bigger library is obvious ( its been out longer ) ..... and you have to pay for the online features.

And the no games / very little games is a poor argument.

I personally don't care what the guy chooses, I have made my choice and so it is the console I would advise people to buy.

I hope he enjoys whatever he chooses ... he will have a great time with either machine.

Or a console that has much bigger exclusives, and much better integrated hardware or a cheap console with budget games and expensive online features.

Why? There are only 2 "must have" games on the ps3 and one is a paid for demo.

Now that is a fanboy statement!!

Or accurate, depends on your point of view

Actualy I think that is one of the few points that's on safe ground.

Needles said:

Still a major + though.

Needles said:

£25 a year for superior online experience is no bigh deal compared to the price of the hardware and software. With free online you get what you pay for

Unless you buy a gaming console to, you know, actually play games

Agreed!!!

*just playing devils advocate a bit - let's not get too serious eh?

Would that be the same as ' all 360's break ' ...accurate from my point of view since all mine have.

I think his neutral standing point just took a huge nose dive

I think the screaming american kids .... brings down the 360 community ( I played enough Halo 3 and COD$ on live to know ).

And I have plenty of friends and an active community on ps3 ...unless you have owned both consoles ...your out of your depth when commenting on this area.

( Thats if you don't own a ps3 ).

Don't worry I have had a broken ps3 aswell.
