Nahhhh the 360 was better....

At the time, i was all-in onps3, because of the rrod bullshit, but looking back, virtually every single title that was released on both platforms, runs and plays better on 360.

both consoles were and are amazing today!

you can soft-exploit any ps3 in existence with only a usb stick and run all the unsigned code you want.

the 360 is significantly more complicated, there is a soft-mod out there now, but it's a little finicky. if you are brave and handy with a soldering iron you can put an RHG chip in there and reflash the bios to allow you to run unsigned code. I dropped a 2tb hdd into mine, which is more than i need for any and every game i ever even considered playing.

the ps3 is worth owning and playing for ps3 titles, the xbox360 is better for everything else.

bottom line: seventh gen was best gen

The ps3 was superior to the 360 in raw performance. The problem was the architecture was so novel, most developers never bother porting their engines. So games ran like shit.

Agreed, that's why PS3 exclusives were so much ch better than anything else that gen

Well, late PS3 exclusives. It took a long time for even first party developers to figure out how to take advantage of the hardware. Uncharted 1 and The Last of Us look like they were released during completely different generations.
