Gamers PS3 or Xbox 360?

[Whiskey Bay]

I don't play too much on the game systems,but I have all 3 in the house.2 PS3s,2 XBOX 360s,and 2 WIIs(one decided not to play the discs?). Oldest son is the PS3er,younger son is the XBOXer,and I have a Wii and a Xbox 360 in the living room.The 360 is strictly for me to play Mortal Kombat,but I'm not an onliner.I have had to replace the PS3 3x already.The 360 twice.but once was just upgrading.

Ps3. Most importantly, I prefer the ps controllers, always have - I feel they are much more comfortable.

Honestly. It does EVERYTHING. Blu ray, games, internet browsing, etc etc I can go on and on. You can get the PS eye or move with it as well. There are a good variety of games. The PS network is free - I don't believe it is with Xbox.

I've had my ps2 since they FIRST came out. The thing has never been taken apart and cleaned, has been dropped multiple times, has had the cables ripped out of it. The thing still works great! Going on the idea, I'm assuming that the ps3 will be as sturdy as it was.

I stick to online games for the PC,usally MMORPGs.My sons play Minecraft.

I have seen consoles come and go since the 80's got tired of buying new ones all the time,now I just stick to using my PC.

My ps3 is used and I have played on it for 7 hours straight before... never overheated. A thin one will though because they have no fan. I think ps3 is better all a round. It has better graphics.

I'm not a gamer but my hubby and son both prefer the xbox 360. They game online.

I'm currently debating whether I should go with a PS3 or an XBOX 360 myself. I would like to play some games on it and we've always had playstations. My brother has a PS3 now and he likes it because you don't have to pay for online access. If I get either, I want to use it for some gaming (I don't do too much gaming, just every now and then), playing DVDs (Blu-ray in PS3 is a nice feature), and playing netflix on the TV. I've heard that you have to pay $60 a year for internet access on the XBOX. However, I have heard mixed things about whether or not I would have to pay that to use Netflix. I'm already paying to HAVE Netflix, and wouldn't want to pay extra. Does anyone know for sure if I would have to pay to use netflix on an XBOX360?
