x box 360 or ps3?

jon boy · 08.20.2009, 10:54 AM

not for me, for a younger relative aged 11.

Trasher02 · 08.20.2009, 11:00 AM

Xbox360, definately.

360 has better games, PS3 has a blue-ray and doesn't die from red-ring.

for an 11 year old, like noisereductions said, a Wii might be better for having games more tailored to their age.

what about DS?

noisereductions · 08.20.2009, 11:44 AM

DS f'ing rules. But get a DS Lite so they have GBA compatability, rather than the new stupid DSi.

jon boy · 08.20.2009, 11:44 AM

well he had a wii but it has started to breakdown due to over use and general kids messing around with it type damage and he says he wants an x box or a ps3. his sister has a ds and he wants something different so...

noisereductions · 08.20.2009, 11:46 AM

can you give me yr Wii, then?

floatingslowly · 08.20.2009, 11:47 AM

^^^ you can have mine. it's been played twice.

atsonicpark · 08.20.2009, 11:48 AM

DS is the only GREAT system... in fact, it might be the best gaming system of all time.

360 is the best of the non-portable consoles, but the red ring of death means I'll never get one.

atsonicpark · 08.20.2009, 11:48 AM

Also, I'd reccomend a ds lite if you don't have a gamecube (since playing game boy advance games on your cube is way more fun), but the DSi actually rules a lot. You can make animations with it now!

floatingslowly · 08.20.2009, 11:49 AM

they've supposedly "fixed" most of the problems that caused red-ring. that said, I'm on my second fucking 360.

hells to the yeah! I use my Gamecube for GBPlayer probably more than actual GC games. Also, I got a VGA Adapter so it's hooked up to a monitor. Looks really cool rockin' Super Puzzle Fighter II, etc.

atsonicpark · 08.20.2009, 11:57 AM

fuck yeah, same here.

playing metroid fusion on my big screen = mmm!!!!!!

SONIC GAIL · 08.20.2009, 01:04 PM

Depends. Do you want your relative to grow up to be a Halo-playing douche nozzle or a Final Fantasy-playing girly nerd?
