Good blog post. However, I’ve heard that the ps3 is better than the xbox360. Do you agree?
Yes you are right. Comparing PS3 and Xbox features i can say ps3 wins
On paper PS3 looks and sounds like it’s better but in reality Xbox 360 blows PS3 outta the water. Not only the system is better but also the exclusive games. Halo and Gears Of War to name 2 franchises. Where as not only does there exclusive games suck but also they are rip offs of xbox games. For example Infamous just looks and plays like Crackdown.Also Uncharted rip off of Far Cry. I can keep going why Xbox 360 is better but you get my drift.
360 has never gotten a perfect rating games. Uncharted got 10 out of 10 and is a PS3 only same as God of War. Also those 2 games halo and gears are made by bungie who has stopped producing xbox only games. So they just lost their only company who was keeping them alive. Microsoft has nothing over Sony.
