But ever since i got the PS3, it's been one game after another hogging my attention, Madden, NHL, FFXIII, FFVIII, MW2. Love this system. So glad my 360 died for a second time, haha. And i see Skate 3 and War for Cybertron stealing some time in the future too.

Red Ring of Death? I love my PS3 too, but ever since I got my 360 I only play PS3 for Metal Gear Solid 4 and Gran Turismo 5 that comes out this fall/winter.

Do. Not. Play. MAG. Unless you're gonna play Sevr.

PS3 better system. 360 has better games... Has anyone here picked up Record of Aragest War?

E74. RROD came along back in '07. Well after my 360 died, which luckily happened a day after i got my PS3, i took my NHL10 for 360 and traded it in to get it on PS3 instead, free OTP, yeah i was up for that haha.

And AZ, as i said, MW2 has eased me into FPS, so i have no plans right now to even get MAG. Would like to play BC2, enjoyed the demo a bit. And as far as better games, PS3 has just as many as far i'm concerned. Because most of what i play is either PS3 exclusive or available on both systems.

BC2 is win. Way better than MW2 in my opinion. Though, it's best on PC unfortunately. At least if you play online.

The reason I think 360 has the better games is simply the online community. There are way more people on live than on psn unfortunately. Most of the really good games are available on both, but a lot of the fun of playing those games, for me anyway, is playing with people. That said, I own BC2 on PS3. *L*

Most first person shooters are better on PC in my opinion. I think the Battlefield games always were better on PC, even though i enjoy playing Bad company on 360. I used to play PC Games alot back in the day, Counterstrike, Team Fortress, Quake. I play here and there but im more on the 360 now.

*L* The only reason I think the PC version is better is because you're not locked into your squad. PS3 and 360 (at least in the first one for 360) you can't talk to people not in your squad, and you can't change squads mid game.

pfff, I am still waiting for Star Wars Battlefront 3 or Online or whatever they are going to call it. However, Starcraft 2 is coming out in July and I think that will take precedence over any other game for PC ever made up to that point. hahaha

Yeah, again, i enjoyed the BC2 demo i played. But MW2 has eased me into the FPS genre. Up until i got the BC2 demo and MW2, the last FPS i played was Golden Eye on the N64, haha. Yeah, there's no doubt the XBL community is larger than the PSN, but i like the free online play over $60 a year when that could be spent a brand new game or DLC.

The big arguement for paying for live is that they ban cheaters, PSN doesn't. PSN doesn't even have a way to avoid people you don't want to play with. Which, in general, is only annoying when you run into the same arsehats in every match.

That's what I think about HMW and you.
You left that one waaaaaaaay open for me there AZ, no way I wasn't taking it!

That's true. Though on PSN i don't think(at least i haven't found the way to) you can follow anyone, even in your recently played list, into a game. I've only been able to do it with people on my friends list.

With a smaller ammount of people, it's likely to get the same people in matches. I haven't run into it to often though.

So, I am back to playing.

As for consoles, I have a 360, can't wait for WFC to be released, but until then I'll stick to MW2 multiplayer. Should probably renew live too

Yeah, i don't think i've really ran into the same person more than once really that i can recall. And i checked last night, PSN does have a 'block user' list, though i'm not exactly sure how it completely works.

I think it's just to block them from sending you messages. Most of the times I've run into the same people over and over has been while playing BC1 and BC2.
