I have both, i got the PS3 only to play a game called "god of war" coz the game's THAT good, it has awesome graphics compared to xbox and gameplay is very good too, the move sensor is far more responsive and accurate than kinect but you'll need to hold it in your hand. Which is really not motion-sensing should be all about.

The games are fast paced and quality, details, colour, responsiveness are all better with PS3. If you happen to have a Bravia full-system, the experience is even better.

However, PS3 does not use cutting edge technology which is already out in the market. Sony is yet to catch up on the latest gig's.

Unless you mind spending a couple of thousands extra - xbox it is...
I recently got the 360 slim version along with Kinect sensor. The graphics for kinect games are not all that great while the regular games are quite decent, not as good as PS3 level graphics though.

Games like HALO, Call of Duty, etc are very immersive since there's a HUGE online multiplayer community for Xbox, compared to PS3. If you are a big fan of online gaming, look into this. Since it gives you many more hours of fun!

Kinect games are good fun for the whole family, they are relatively easy to play and showcase the pinnacle of today's gaming technology. The motion sensor based games would put a smile on the face of even the most grumpiest video-game-hating person to see/try it. You'll have to experience it for yourself to get to a verdict.

There's no recommendation, just pro's and con's (excluding the illegal aftermarket stuff) - take whatever suits you best.

Hey I have got the PS3 yesterday! Also purchased a FIFA11 I am yet to go shopping for other games ! Have played Kinect in a couple of friends place well dint like it that much was kinda into PS3 after getting some info from a few other PS3 users! Anyways thanx a ton brother, I also wanted to know if I go to richi street and get those duplicated cds it wont work on the PS3 just like that will it?

And I have actually looked into a 42" Bravio So will get that after or before Diwali too! And I aint such a big online gamer now a days! I would be happy with a few others joining me with a joystick right beside me!

As of now, PS3 is the best deal, for the following reasons:

1. Lower cost due to a recent discount. For Rs. 20,000, you can get 320 GB Version with a wireless remote, Move kit with camera, plus 2-3 games... check flipkart for the best offer. Sacrifice some things from this list and you can get a 160GB Version for 16-17 thousand.
While Xbox is still beyond 22k for a very moderate version AFAIK...

2. PS3 has Smaller & lighter Remote. That Xbox has a big and heavy remote which basically sucks, if my opinion is taken. Great Ergonomics...

3. Best Graphics Processor called the Cell in the PS3. Be aware that not all games can fully utilize the Cell processor that good...

4. Hardware specs are great.

Thanx ji I got the PS3

get the kinect version with you eyes closed

xbox with kinect ftw! +easy to hack the xbox,free games

Thanks buddy! anyways got the PS3

I think you should only go for a Force Feedback one..
The others might not feel that realistic.

I have Logitech Driving Force GT for my PS3. It comes for PC as well I guess. Its MRP is 9400/-. But if you search a bit you might get it cheaper. I bought it for 5500/- from a wholeseller in Nehru Place, Delhi.

True but i dont wana invest that much . i've order my self Notho costs 1700Rs/- as my pc is due for upgrade.
