@Pranay: Yes, Gold_Heart is true, instead of playing through Advanced Warfighter-2, give Splinter Cell: Double Agent a try. An awesome game! I loved it..

[pranay]

@pranay,
its just like another Tom Clancy's title. Commendable graphics and nice first person shooting experience. However, true as Aryan said...the game isnt that good as compared to its first installment.
Instead, why dont u try Ghost Recon:AW 2 or Splinter Cell Double Agent ! Both are awesome titles.

@Pranay: Yes, Gold_Heart is true, instead of playing through Advanced Warfighter-2, give Splinter Cell: Double Agent a try. An awesome game! I loved it..

Advanced Warfighter 1 and 2...hmm how could i miss those titles, gaming brothers...its like the holy grail!! I just loved it...

Double Agent .... have finished that too....but u remember that stage with that puzzle cube number combination...man...that was one of the toughest stages I have ever played...cuz i not too good with numbers..

Sacred:2 - Fallen Angel seems like a decent hack 'n' slash RPG that would be beneficial to kill time unltil the mother of all action RPGs DIABLO is back in an all new avataar, DIABLO-III..

blu ray is indirectly on a fall.u cant see sales picking up.and SONY only didnt release their mod chip for PS3 to make it region free.so P games on PS3 chances are real slim.

XBOX 360 has 100 %chance for P games.

^^^ well now tats the biggest confusion ....
PS3 40G vs xbox 360 pro.

Failure rate...
PS3 1-3%
Xbox360 33% (Red Ring of death almost 1 out of 5 will get this)

Cost...
Both almost same here

Online.
PS3 FREE
XBOX PAID(but far better than PS3)

Graphics
XBOX better than PS3

Games
more on Xbox than PS3 tats cause its diff to make games for PS3 some tech fundas involved.
But this will change in future

So overall for long run its PS3
Also as per user ratings PS3 seems to be better.

Now even am confused

Does anyone here own PS3 ?

[torque_ankur]

^ buddy same confusion here., I guess its better to wait for PS3 80GB

[Aryan]

@chilled & torque: Dump the confusion and get a fully loaded PC! It will surely give you peace of mind..

[anirudh]

As of now waiting for games to come for the ps3 is not a wise option.....it will definitely take a year or two for game manufacturers to come up with bug free games for the console..... until then if u are ready to wait get the ps3. else xbox 360 is always a better bet... Here in the US the majority of the people have xbox 360.this may also be owing to the fact that xbox games are cheaper than ps3

[chilled_fire]

^^^ US ki baat alag hai dost, here both costs almost same , i can get xbox from my sis in US , but tat will cause NTSC/PAL issues.
Agreed tat Xbox 360 has more game options but my concern is RROD, i dont wanna spend 24K on a consale which is highly likely to be doomed.
I have a PS2 since almost 5 yrs now and i have no issues with it


@Aryan :the PC graphics cant be compared with Xbox or PS3 period

well i think the latest graphics cards have caught up...you can check out this vid. the PS3 on a smaller screen and brighter but clearly the PC has more contrast

He actually meant that the PC has superior graphics when compared to the top two consoles (atleast I think that is what he meant).

[anvancy]

look at the fact that your inital cost is same..but the cost per unit after the initial cost is huge.simple example.suppose the P of 360 costs 400bucks(assumption)and PS3 costs 3k per game.look at the cost TO RUN the two consoles and look at the COST DIFFERENCE.

true about the death and stuff of 360.but will you buy a PS3 regardless 40gb 80gb but take only one single game of 3k and keep playing it??

and both sections have juicy special titles.for xbox it was halo..for ps3 well killzone 2.which these you dont get on pc.

thats why PS3 sales never picked up.even if the console costs 24k each blu ray game costs 3k+ thats the catch.

anvancy.

[chilled_fire]

^^^ yes ur true, but the fact is if a modded 360 goes kaput , then its loss of 24k isnt it ?

[torque_ankur]

^^^ yes ur true, but the fact is if a modded 360 goes kaput , then its loss of 24k isnt it ?

yep this risk will always be there if you want to play P games on any of the consoles.

[chilled_fire]

^^^ Am not much interested in P games cause if i mod the xbox thena i done get Xlive option....
So P games is outa question, also i dont think i'll b playin more than an hour a day (i have a life and work ) its only weekends agaian wont be much , so buyin orig games not an issue.
