How many Xbox 360 and Sony PS3 games
First lets make a point, the Xbox 360 does have way more games than the Sony PS3 and we do not need to get into that but the real question is: does having more games and more choice mean that you buy more video games?
Although some gamers who have had the Xbox 360 from day one should have more games than PS3 owners as it has been out not as long, or I may be wrong.

So in the interest of finding out if more games means you buy more, be honest and let us know how many Xbox 360 or Sony PS3 games you own and feel free to tell us which ones if you wish.

    I don’t know, for me, I just know the games that I’ve always enjoyed and the developers that i’ve always respected. Usually I’m waiting for the oldschool IP’s, and then anything new that comes along that catches my eye I’ll buy. I kind of went crazy with PS3 purchases though, not sure why, but I just started buying every game I could lol.

    the thing is that the more games there are for the 360 makes people have alot of games to choose from

    I would say its a big yes, Last gen xbox didnt have much running for it, games would release and i wouldnt give a second look at.

    But this time around, im always seeing the next big thing for the xbox and ps3 and even the wii. Last gen i had a total of maybe 6-7 games for xbox, this time around 20+ with atleast 10 games ive sold on after playing them and atleast enougher 5 games on my preorder list.

    looking at round 5 xbox games enougher 4 ps3 games and 3 wii games my bank is feeling the pain :)

    i got my ps3 at xmas and now the proud owner of 1o ps3 games not including the downloaded games. i try to buy one at least every two weeks.
    this along with my back catolouge of ps2 games around 95 at the last count stops me getting bored on cold winter nights

  8. tgrass21 says:

    Games I’m getting on release this year.

    PS3:

    MGS4
    Resistance 2
    Little Big World
    Maybe Killzone 2 but the first one sucked.
    Maybe GT5 but it has to be more then a pretty racing game.

    360:

    Halo Wars
    Ninja Gaiden II
    Too Human
    GTA 5 ( because of all the extra content only on 360 )
    Gears of War 2
    UT3
    Splinter Cell Conviction
    Battlefield: Bad Company

  9. Chappas says:

    I’m guessing you mean GTA4?
    Why wouldn’t you just get UT3 on the PS3? It’s got support for MODS, you can use K/M… whats not to like?

  10. tgrass21 says:

    GTA 4 was San Andreas I thought? Anyway I meant the new one coming out.

    I would rather play online games in the Xbox Live community then PS3 any day. I could care less about mods on ps3, thats what PC gaming is for. I also can’t stand the PS3 controller, especially for shooters, 360’s controller is much better.
