@soco, Your selling your PS3? Former means the first. But if you mean the xbox360? PWd instalments? Is it modded? If it is modded nvm.

I posted it in the BnS section sir

Ok ok. I saw it nah. I reccomended it to a friend

I'm selling my Jasper 360. I got a slim already. Please, not with console fanboyism again. Get both consoles. Don't deprive yourselves of the great games each console has to offer. PS3 is not better than 360, 360 is not better than PS3.

i sense a lot of Trolls and Fanboys in these thread. LOL anyhooo this is just about personal reference or just buy both systems, BEST OF BOTH WORLDS, right?

i learned this from Miley Cyrus

buy everything you like..... PS3 and Xbox360 has both their advantages and disadvantages.....

for my case. i had both consoles before, a modded xbox360 jasper and a slim PS3. enjoyed them both.... until i got to play online thru PSN. frankly even though XBL is far more superior than the PSN, PSN was free and games were not region locked.... so i stuck with PS3.....

in conclusion.... its all in your preference....

[orochimaru700]

the reason i'm sticking to ps3 it's because of Kratos and Nathan Drake....

now...where's my popcorn and coke?

i think ur blaming sony itself rather than the hackers who did it .same way like

robbing a bank.

people tend to blame the bank rather than the criminals who robbed it .

i think ang point niya is, sony has its name and brand and all..but at still had their security bypassed.. i hope this issue is resolved though

according to David Shippy of IBM, the man behind the development of both console's processors...

"I'm going to have to answer with an 'it depends,'" laughs Shippy, after a pause. "Again, they're completely different models. So in the PS3, you've got this Cell chip which has massive parallel processing power, the PowerPC core, multiple SPU cores… it's got a GPU that is, in the model here, processing more in the Cell chip and less in the GPU. So that's one processing paradigm -- a heterogeneous paradigm."

"With the Xbox 360, you've got more of a traditional multi-core system, and you've got three PowerPC cores, each of them having dual threads -- so you've got six threads running there, at least in the CPU. Six threads in Xbox 360, and eight or nine threads in the PS3 -- but then you've got to factor in the GPU," Shippy explains. "The GPU is highly sophisticated in the Xbox 360."

He concludes: "At the end of the day, when you put them all together, depending on the software, I think they're pretty equal, even though they're completely different processing models."
