McRic Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Ok I know it's an old question asked all the time. I sold my ps3 as I had little time to use it. In honesty I now wish I hadn't. Now which one's best? I have no intention to use either online and I already have a blue ray player so come on pros & cons. As non biast as possible please.

McRic Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 have all the light of death issues been sorted with the 360? Sorry for all the questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawdreamer Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 have all the light of death issues been sorted with the 360? Sorry for all the questions. modern versions dont suffer from the cause of the RROD if thats what you mean? upon buying my new elite version the sales monkey also told me that MS will honour a unwriten promise to fix any faults (that I havnt caused obviously) for upto 2yrs beyond the 3yr warrenty that comes with new systems anyway. my last one suffered only one fault in the many hours of faultless gameplay and that was a drive failure.....which as Peewee will tell you, was an easy fix and the system continues to offer faultless gameplay to this day.

WHAT?! PS3 can output 1080P which the xbox can't however very very few PS3 games actually are 1080P (most are just 720P or 1080i which matches the XBOX) The xbox is better on value, and if the only games you want to play are common games or XBOX exclusives then you're onto a winner, however if you want PS3 exclusives, or regular online play, or futureproofness, or the ability to run a hooooge harddrive full of films, then PS3 is the winner. Get a second hand PS3, and MW2.. It's all you need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
