Posted November 21, 2005 A few excerpts from a front-page Yahoo news article: Analysts and game fans say PS3 is the sexier game machine with twice the processing speed of Xbox 360, next-generation DVD technology Blu-ray, and seven control pads that can connect wirelessly to the console. Wedbush Morgan Securities said in an industry report in July that it expected worldwide PS3 and Xbox 360 sales to be tied at 23 million units each in 2007. No mention of Nintendo except to poke fun at its 15 percent marketshare So, True or False, is the PS3 sexier and twice as capable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 So, True or False, is the PS3 sexier and twice as capable? Having played both machines for hours and hours I'd say no. It's more like three and a half times sexier, and four times... no, five times as capable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 If you believe Sony's figures then yes, PS3 is twice as capable if you believe this report then no. And being a sexy device is just a subjective opinion that can't be backed up with facts. I'd listen to my alternate personality, Dr. Fanboy, who claims that the Revolution will be pwning everything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 Xbox 360 looks better than the PS3. Xbox 360 pad looks better than DualShock3. The consoles are technically pretty evenly matched, but Xbox 360 is easier to program for. We'll see it out but right now we can't speculate anymore than what something "appears" to be like, not what it actually is like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 I am more like three and a half times sexier, and four times... no, five times as capable. My sister wants your phone number now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 21, 2005 I think the PS3's ugly as crap!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 PS3 is ugly, im guessing the guys that wrote this regularly read Breadbin monthly? But this is all opinionated, the looks = opinion. The capabilities = fact. No doubt PS3 is more capable than the 360, more can be done with its power, but im not suprised theres no mention about nintendo, 15 percent isnt alot and we dont exactly know much about revolution.

Posted November 21, 2005 More speculative nonesense again. We don't know anything and I doubt they do too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 This is simply MS and Sony saying "our's is better". It's just like two little boys arguing who has a bigger... car or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 To be fair it isn't about how the machine looks, it's the games that determine how good a console is. Unless you're playing the "look at how sexy it is" game, which I hear IGN rated poorly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 The best part about the PS3 is the Spiderman font. With that expection, I say the 360 looks hotter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 The PS3 is clearly the superior machine when it comes to keeping your groceries at a cool temperature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 ps3 kinda looks like a sybian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2005 Am I the only one who thinks they just bulged out the sides of PS2 and painted it silver? It looks so similar, except for the spiderman font instead of cheap looking squared off letters. 360 looks like a slimmed PC tower and Rev looks like a glowing DVD player, but at least you wont need a second mortgage to own it (for size and price).
