Xbox or PS3

So i put out an add for PS3 gamers and get no joy and then i see a 360 thread and 15 responses for someone else. Whats the deal with that PS3 not popular? Heres the deal, i will be getting an appartment anyday now as soon as Doha allows me to have one. The first appliance will be the 53 - 70 Inch LCD. Looking to start a little gaming (in person or online) crew for gaming sessions at the bachelor pad or again online. I am very much a Pro Evo player but play all the beat em ups and first persons etc. What are your thoughts. Are there gamers in Doha?

Hey all my gamertag is Cloatcho, the same on Xbox Live and PSN.

most of the time i'm playing GOW2 on Xbox360,

and i also have PES2009 on PS3 but when i play it online there is so much lag that it destroys all the fun of the game :( anyone have the same problem?

well put Zayd,

i say you start with Assassin's Creed, Burnout Paradise and FIFA09....

but what ever happens you have to get Metal Gear Solid 4...... it's the reason some people bought the PS3 and a High Definition TV. like myself..

..

anyway..

XBOX360 is fine, cheap, can play Pirated/Copied games...

games that are released for both 360 and PS3 r exactly the same.. games that r made specially & exclusively for the PS3 will never run on the 360..

bahraini...you can start with assassin's creed and fallout 3...these are pretty good...though mgs4 is the big daddy of all ps3 games i'm afraid you won't be able to fully appreciate it without having played at least the last 3...it's still a fun game though, it's your call.

not too many brilliant games out yet, but i can't wait for the full grand turismo and final fantasy to be realsed! i'm gonna get fired in a flash :(

so you got at least 15 posts from people who support the xbox and none from ps3 lovers??? well that's obvious, the ps3 is so good that nobody can bother leaving it to post!

the x-box isn't bad, but i can never forgive microsoft for creating excel and therefore have withdrawn all my financial support to the company. and as master_mas said, there's MGS4...more than enough reason to get the ps3 (if you can forgive the ending).

i'm still not set up online, will let you know when i am though, we2009...it's on!

$400US for a PS3?!? XBox gives you the same, but much cheaper. I like Sony, but they can get out of hand at times.
