Default Should I Get an Xbox 360?

While Altitude keeps me entertained for a good period of time, I have thought about buying an Xbox 360. Many of my friends have one and when I was at college my roommate shared his with me. I kind of miss not being able to play it now that it is summer. I will have enough money soon to buy an Xbox but I really would like to have some other things also. I want a video camera and a camera most of all besides an Xbox. I am having trouble deciding because I am a stingy person and on different days, I want different things. Please give your opinion.

Depends on what you want to do. if you are looking for something to play online then get a PS3. You can't beat the free online play versus paying per month with the xbox. Plus its got a built in Blu Ray player. Its pretty tits.

Fixed it for ya.

Is Xbox better than PS3? It is easier to talk to/invite and play with friends on Xbox. I find the exclusives on Xbox to be (Generally) better than the ones on PS3. Graphics don't matter at all, but if for some reason you're interested in that the PS3 exclusives are generally better looking, but games that are for both Xbox and PS3 are pretty much exactly the same graphically. It just boils down to what system your friends have.

i think it depends on the amount of time you will spend playing with it, if you know you will play with friends, but might not be able to play for a month, then go for the xbox, but if you know you will be using it for years to play online then you should go for the PS3, but yeah thats my opinion.

You should go for a ps3 if you don't mind your personal details being sold around the world

PS3 -> free online which is awesome, but poor quality of the network
Xbox -> paying online but you're going to enjoy it... you get what you pay for.

You can now troll really hard. Enjoy it while you can because the amount of trolling you get in the 2000+ club is even better.

I think I will get a video camera first, but I will save up for the Xbox. Many of my friends have an Xbox and although I won't like paying for online, I think I will enjoy it more than the PS3.

I'm looking forward to when you reach 4,000 posts. Just reaching that mark is a troll in itself.

According to the PAX interview, they tried to do that but it didn't work out.

ps3 multiplayer is free but very limited u cant make parties n stuff
xbox live is much better, but expensive
ps3 has a blu ray, but who gives a ****, ur buying a gaming console not a dvd player
ps3 is pricier when u first buy it, but the amount of things u need extra with an xbox to have fun pretty much makes the price equal

also xbox's generally break pretty easy

btu still, imo get an xbox, it's better

if u do, add me
