Answer
Overall the 2 are pretty equal. The PS3 has its blu-ray player but if you don't care about blu-ray movies, it doesn't do anything for the actual games themselves. Both can play DVD movies, but if you're like me, you already have 4 or 5 other devices that can play DVDs... The 360, meanwhile, has the better online service even though it does cost you $60/year to play online. It is well worth the money, however. Live is more stable, offers better integration with games, and has a much larger active subscriber base than PSN for the PS3. PS3 and 360 owners cannot play against each other online. They use totally separate networks and separate servers.

Graphics-wise, they're essentially equal. Even in side-by-side comparisons of the same game you'd be hard pressed to discern any real difference between them. The exclusives look incredible on both but that's to be expected.

Both offer media-center functionality allowing them to stream videos, pictures and music from your PC. Both offer Netflix connectivity if you have an existing Netflix account. Both offer connectivity with Twitter, Facebook, and Hulu Plus. The PS3 has a slight edge here because the 360 requires the paid online subscription to access the Netflix feature - don't ask me why.

Both can install games to the hard drive...but both still require you to have the game disc in the console to play the game. Some PS3 games require they be installed to the hard drive, while others have this as an option to speed up loadtimes. Most PS3 games don't have this option at all. All 360 games can be copied to the hard drive but you don't want to always do this. Halo3, for instance, actually plays WORSE from the hard drive, so don't bother. Again, like the PS3, you still need to have the game disc in your 360's drive to start the game up. After that, the game plays from the hard drive.

Take a look at the exclusives on each console, and the one with the longer list of exclusives you want to play is probably the console you should buy. After all, you are buying a GAME console, so GAMEs should be the primary reason for choosing a GAME console.

PS3 :
Pros: , FREE Wi-Fi, FREE online gaming, FREE internet browser, contains a built in Blu-Ray player, FREE USB to charge your controller. Most PS1 games will work.
Cons: A little bit more expensive than Xbox, Not all PS3 are backwards compatible, meaning they can't play PS2 games. Sometimes FREEZES or a problem occurs Most online games get hacked such as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2.

Xbox 360 :
Pros : Slight improvement in graphics, Cheaper, Advanced security that makes it difficult to hack.
Cons: Pay for online play, may receive the Red Ring Of Death, causing Damage to your Xbox.

If your going to purchase a video game system, then get what your friends have so you can play with them.

On Xbox, you will less likely encounter hackers.

ON PS3, you will encounter some hackers.

PLease can somebody tell me the differences between the Original PS3 and the PS3 Slim?

Gobzilla

I had a question the other day and somebody recomended me the original PS3, but i was just wandering the differences between the two.

Answer
PS3 Slim is alot better because it is slimmer lighter and looks more trendy
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002I0J4VQ?tag=dcmb-20

Review:
As a proud owner of a PS3, I was closely following developments of when the rumored (and highly-anticipated) PS3 Slim would come out. After shelling [...] for the PS3 80GB back in 2008, I was really excited to hear that Sony not only announced a smaller version of the PS3, but also implemented a [long-overdue] $100 price cut. I immediately went out and bought the Slim as soon as possible, and am very happy with it so far. Here are my impressions:

COMPARED TO PLAYSTATION 3 "FAT"
A LOT SMALLER
I heard that it was smaller, but seeing is believing! The photos don't do the system justice, and it's not really till you see and feel the difference that you are impressed with it. If you can, go into your local game store and check it out for yourself! If you've previously owned a Playstation console, you already know the difference the slimmer version makes when compared to the original, bulky ones. What's really convenient is that the slimmer PS3 not only means your video gaming is more portable, but that you have a really convenient Blu-Ray player.

NOT A FINGERPRINT MAGNET
I love the sleek look of my PS3 Fat, but don't like how it constantly needs to be cleaned. The glossy finish is a fingerprint magnet! The matte finish on the Slim is much easier to maintain. That being said, it doesn't look as shiny and cool, but I think its convenience outweighs that.

MORE STORAGE
Storage was never an issue for me on my 80GB system, but for those who wanted more storage, you get 40GB more with this system (120GB in total). It may not seem like much, but you can hold MANY movies, pictures, and music albums with 120GB. If that's still not enough, you can always install a 2.5" hard drive yourself, or better yet, plug in an external hard drive in one of the USB ports. You can easily get a portable 500GB external hard drive for less than $100, or a bigger, bulkier one with around 1TB of storage for roughly the same. That being said, I think 120GB for $300 should be more than enough for most users, and is a significant improvement over the 80GB for $400 that people were paying just a few weeks ago!

STILL NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE
This is my one major gripe with the Playstation 3. It really wouldn't have killed Sony to include this feature, as the original Playstation 3's did in fact include backwards compatibility with older Playstation 2 games. A lot of people counter by either saying (1) it doesn't make sense to buy a PS3 to play PS2 games, (2) the graphics on the PS3 are better anyway so why bother with older games, and (3) including backwards compatibility would cannibalize PS3 game sales.

While those arguments might have their merits, I'm still frustrated that my massive PS2 library can't be played on the PS3, and was really hoping that Sony would include backwards compatibility on the Slim! I loved the fact the PS2 was backwards compatible with PS1 games, and really wish that Sony would reconsider this decision.

COMPARED TO OTHER SYSTEMS:
PS3 vs. WII
I think comparing the PS3 directly to the Wii is a bit like comparing apples to oranges, since they offer such different experiences. The Wii in my opinion is more family-friendly, while the PS3 is better for more graphics-intense games geared towards different gemographics. I'm a huge fan of Nintendo, and I love their very family-oriented game offerings. I own a DS and Wii and still love Mario as much as the days back when I played the original Nintendo (NES). In addition, I think Nintendo's motion-sensitive controllers for the Wii are very innovative and fun to play with! Unfortunately however, for most gamers, the difference in game quality is noticeable when comparing the two systems. The PS3 has AMAZING graphics. On an HD Television, you notice such crisp details while playing the PS3. The Wii features only Standard Definition output, which noticeably weakens it when compared to the other next-gen consoles such as the PS3 and Xbox 360.

PS3 vs. XBOX 360
Microsoft has an impressive gaming console in their Xbox 360 and there are some amazing titles exclusive to the Xbox, but in the end you get less bang for your buck when compared to the Playstation 3:

(1) Online gameplay: You can use the Playstation Network's online features without having to pay a subscription fee like you do for the Xbox. I was never a big online gamer but now I enjoy playing against opponents online.
(2) Internet connectivity: Built-in wireless internet connectivity on the PS3 is a much better bet than having to buy a wireless network adapter for the Xbox. Of course you can simply rely on a wired Ethernet connection, but this might be inconvenient depending on your set-up.
(3) High-Def Video: The Playstation 3 doubles as a Blu-Ray player. Microsoft bet on the wrong horse when they were hoping that HD-DVD would come out the w

How much will it cost for a x-box 360 with blueray player vs ps3?

blu ray player vs playstation 3 image

im looking foe two remots, online, a memery card, two games,and a head set.

Answer
Xbox 360s don't, nor will they ever have a Blu-Ray player for it. And considering you want a Blu-Ray machine, you'd have to go to PS3.

Look for a good deal on a PlayStation 3 that gives you the option to choose your games and accessories. Then, I suggest buying the $60 SOCOM: Confrontation bundle. It comes packed in with the official PS3 bluetooth headset (bluetooth is also something you can't have on 360).

If you want a 360 and a Blu-Ray player, you have to make a choice. If you need the them both that badly, you'd have to get a 360 and a PS3 for the Blu-Ray. If you just want a gaming system, the PS3 is your man.

Hope this helped =)

playstation 3 ps3 vs regular blu ray player?

Is the quality of movie playback of a blu ray movie on the ps3 as good as a stand alone blu ray player?

Answer
The BEST Blu-ray player is the Pioneer Elite BDP-94HD (according to Consumer Reports -- this is the US version of the BDP-LX70) -- largely because of the high-end video processing built in -- but the PS3 at about $400 is a fraction of the $1000 US price, and the choice of many home theatre installers.

One advantage of the PS3 -- ignoring it's gaming ability -- is that it can be updated fvia firmware and has gone from a profile 1.0 to 1.1 player in recent months and is now profile 2.0 (The final step -- which adds Internet connectivity).

Many early adopter consumers -- who tend to be technically literate -- consider the PS3 the best player.

The quality of the video image from the PS3 is as good or better than most stand alone players ... certainly anything in the price range.

The only decision is whether you can accept the looks of the PS3 ... although some people simply hide it -- and remote control it -- rather than adding to their other equipment.

How can I make my Playstation 3 Blu Ray player picture less fluid?

blu ray player vs playstation 3 image

Steve

I just bought a new TV and the refresh rate is higher than the old one (120hz vs. 60hz.) It was a little too fluid for some shows, causing blurriness and choppy images. I was able to adjust the setting for the TV picture, but when I am watching a movie on my PS3 I encounter the same problem. Does anyone know how I can adjust the setting on my PS3 so that the picture appears less fluid? Thanks.

you can't

Is a blu-ray home theatre system really worth buying vs PS3?

Clucky Mcd

I have a samsung 3d 51" plasma and I am thinking about buying this Samsung HTE5550WXY for my movie watching experience, but what I'm wondering is if it's really worth it, cause I've been thinking since a playstation 3 doubles as a 3D blu-ray player, is it worth buying a home theatre?

Answer
The major difference between the Samsung and the PS3 will be the audio. The video quality will be the same. If you are into surround sound and would like louder audio then yes it is worth it.
