should i get a 360 or a PS3: Informative Thread

[Brady280]

Im wondering this to 360 or ps3. I have enough for a 360 my sister stole ours when she moved out and I want it back. It has all the games I want on it gta4 resi 5. I want a ps3 for ff13 but if I but it and it ends up like 12 I'll be dissapointed. Well I guess 360 is now ps3 is the future is true. I'll have to wait a while to decide which one.

Well, you can steal it back if that'll work. But if you're choosing to buy instead, I would have to say go for a 360. FF13 is a long way down the road, and if you're looking for a Final Fantasy game that plays like FF7, 8, and 9... Then I recommend Lost Odyssey for the Xbox 360. It releases in February 2008 and is being made by the original creator of all of the Final Fantasy games from 1 through 9.

However, i did read on IGN that FF13's gameplay is still ATB, but it won't be in the form of an MMORPG like FF12 was. It'll be somewhat turn-based, but in real-time at a high-speed pace. It's alittle complicated to explain, but it's supposed to be very interactive, and much improved over Final Fantasy 12's.

Or, if you're into Dragon Quest.. You can give Blue Dragon for the 360 a go, and see if you like that.

It would be safe to assume that, i guess. Based off of the PS2's success and large quantity of RPG games...

However, the Xbox 360 currently has the most RPGs overall compared to the Wii & PS3, including Japanese RPGs.

But, we'll have to wait and see how the PS3 does when it's library fills up more in that department.

Well if you look at it, most of the Xbox games you can get on a PC ... because the 360 is essentially a PC. This is why the 360 has so many games. The PC development departments of game companies only need to port to the 360 by changing the control scheme.

AND if you look at the 2008 line for the 360 ... its pretty weak. i mean sure its got fable 2 but there really isn't any heavy hitters in the lineup. PS3 has games like MGS4 and FF13 ready to move consoles.

This is mostly why I chose the PS3 ... where does 360 go from here? *shrug*

Lost Odyssey & Ninja Gaiden 2.. just to name a couple. The 2008 lineup is pretty empty and quiet right now, due to the main focus for the 4th Quater of 2007... once 2007 is done with, then they can put more focus into the marketing of big games for 2008.

Thanks, I look at the PS3 in a more positive light now

But now I'm even more confused on which one I want

Probably a XBox 360 first.
