XBox 360 vs. PS3 ... now with specs (non-poll)

[NuclearCrap]

I'll stick my DFP on PC for now...

Good luck, that's how my DFP got killed. I switched to MOMO now.

With stuff like this, it just comes down to the numbers, while performance can't 'necessarily' be graphed on a spec sheet.

I totally agree with you, but I do know this.

Even if PS3 graphic's are exactly the same as 360, the PS3 will be using blue ray disc which can hold 52 gig's maxed out. That is a huge advantage over the 8 gig's for 360, The amount of game content and more/quailty graphic's, rather than tightly sqeezed dvd's on the 360, is going to be a huge factor.

Agreed, but by the time the PS3 will come out, the Microsoft crew will find a way to use larger disks, probably in the 24 gig range.

I think too much is at stake for this next generation of console's to not deliver what they say they will. So i beleive that the specs you see now are for real.

Funny that was what was said abotu the PS2

Some folks ( Sony and others ) dont' seem to learn

Until it comes out, none of us can say anything

And that's why I quitted debating about it. People who start threads like this really don't have the patience to wait til the launch.

actually i do have the patience to wait till the launch, i just wanted to get some specs on the floor for what to be expectant of, not to compare that which exists to that which is still in conceptual form.

How that happen?

Which is why PS2 was a hit, and Xbox is still losing money...despite it being superior spec...

Sony still has far more games than Xbox....and that ain't changing for PS3, just now that Sony also has the superior system too...

does anyone know if Gran Turismo 5 will come out on PSP within 6 months of the PS3 version? because i got a PSP INSTEAD of a PS3. if not, i might just ask my brother to buy a PS3... but i'll never get to play it coz he'll be at uni...? all i know is GT4 Mobile is coming out in around March... but knowing Polyphony Digital it won't be out until Vision GT5 will come out on PS3

[werty]

they haven't even said there will be gt5 on PSP

[The_Canuck]

7 controllers will be sweet for sports games like NHL 2k7 or whatever. would be awsome for strategy war games two.

but i can't get a PS3 i think i'm gonna cry! lol! i might just buy a PS3 anyway, i'll convince someone to buy me one... my mum won't let me but oh well
EDIT: if i save up, i can get a PS3 in 2007 (when GT5 comes out!) GET IN THERE

Not going to happen microsoft would need to modify the drive, and all they have is HD-DVD, by toshiba, because microsoft is against blue ray. Modifying the drive would mean that the games on the market would change, so people with Xbox360s with normal drives wont be able to play all the new games, it would be a disaster. PS3 has the advantage. And I heard that the Blue ray can reach way above the fifty something gig mentioned maxed out.....
