If you are a die hard gamer than it’s an easy choice, get
the XBox 360. There are a broader base of games available for it
and it’s online playing just beats the PS3 to death. That said, if
you are a part time gamer and use your console for other actions
such as watching DVD’s the PS3 is for you. It has a built in Blue
Ray DVD player and many other great features that are very usefull.
Price, they are fairly evenly matched. Bottom line, it all boils
down to what the individule wants. Technically, one is NOT better
than the other. They both have there strong points.

Hi, Juuso im finnish too.
I think from those two, id pick the PS3. I have XBOX360 Elite but i have tried PS3 and i think it has more better exlusive games for it. And multiplayer is free tho some guys complain about the thing when its free its not as good MP options with the internet and stuff like multiplayer-gaming community on xbox.
But whatsoever i like PS2 maybe even more :D im not into MP on consoles crazy. I prefer Singleplayer on consoles but anyways. PS2 has some grrrrreat games. Resident Evil 4 specially. And +its cheap :D.
You got nice ”blog”.

Depends on what your important factors are. Here I’ll give my point of view as a University student (more commonly known as a poor guy :P ).

IMO the best bang for the buck is definitely PS2 which has TONS of excellent games, at a nice price by accepting the fact that you’ll basically be always treasure hunting some good games. Treasure hunting can sometimes end up being expensive.

If going next-gen is what really interests you don’t make the same mistake as I did. One important aspect for me, since I’m a student (and I didn’t think about it when I bought my Xbox 360 -_-’ ) is the TCO.

If money is a possible issue for you, the PS3 can end up being less expensive on the long run. Should you buy a X360 with an extra controller, with 2 play&charge kits and a yearly subscription to Live you’re even with the PS3 for the first year.

If the failure rate of the consoles are added to the formula the Xbox 360 surprisingly ends up being a lot more expensive. Granted they don’t deliver the same level of quality on all aspects.

Looking at the big picture through normal people’s eyes (not as a poor student), the console of choice would be down to: What consoles has the exclusives you’re most interested.

In my position, the 360 has the exclusives I like the most but had I known about all those console quality issues, I never would’ve bought the 360…. Though if I had bought the PS3 I’d be complaining I don’t have the exclusives I’m most interested at XD

Prince Porter: That’s what I’m thinking. In fact… new games feel bit too leaned into graphics. The thing that I am interested about is things like xbox live (arcade) where you can find multiplayer games.

Hey, can I use that same explanation for upgrading my computer too… :)

It’s not junk, it could improve your game design skills

I’d go with the PS2, or XBOX 360. I’m personally sticking it out with oldschool stuff until the next gen, nothing of this gen seems worth the cost. I’ll just play PC games, and the occasional PS1 RPG I’ve somehow managed to not play yet, by the time I catch up on those games, a beautiful new console will be out.
