Disclaimer: This is my opinion as to why the PS3 isn't being put to it's full potential. M-Y space O-P-I-N-I-O-N[/end disclaimer]
Firstly I want you to compare the 360 exclusives to the PS3 exclusives. You will see the 360 has a couple more but if you pay close attention you will see that the PS3 exclusives have much, much, much more detail. It looks like the developers truly spent every minute of the day working hard on the game. Sure some 360 games are like that too but only a few really matter (ie Gears of War, Halo aka xbox money makers). I dont have a lot of knowledge about 360 games but if anyone can post a Adventure game exclusive to the 360 please do.
Now onto the main deal, the Xbox uses the same old crappy HDDVD discs you see when renting movies, it's hardware capability isn't all that good, and there's a couple more things I forgot. Now a PS3 has a more advanced hardware setup, has blu-ray/3D, has Full HD *FULL* (not sure if xbox has), and again a few other points I forgot. Now in a developers eye (ie Treyarch, Ubisoft, etc) what they see is this, "Let's make a new game thats cross platform and since the 360 has less hardware needs and such lets make it look as best at it can on it then port it over to the PS3 since it can most definately handle it and it would cost us less money developing a game on less intense console, who cares if it loses quality through the port we will still make millions. If we had to remake it for the PS3 aswell we would waste too much money.
So money, greed, and laziness of developers is at fault. Developers take the shortcut when it comes to making games and it leaves the community that should be being praised and all up on in the ruins.
Now I want to list a couple PS3 exclusives that really use most or all it's potential.
- Arceus of War 3 (Beautiful graphics) Adventure
- Heavy Rain (Nothing can describe it) Not sure
- Heavenly Sword (Released on the PS3's launch and for a initial launch title it was amazing.) Adventure
- Resistance Series FPS
- LittleBigPlanet (Another launch title that amazed everyone with all the possibilities in it) Platformer
- Gran Turismo (Legendary graphics, best legal racing game ever possibly made) Racer
I can list a bunch more but I think the point is made, if developers spent time to actually make PS3 games, because they aren't PS3 games, no no no, they are 360 games ported over to the PS3, then you would see a huuuuge percent of increase in the PS3 community. This is why I'm hoping that in the next few years when the Next Gen gaming starts I see a lot hard work coming from these devs and actually trying to get the PS3 fanbase to their side.
tl:dr? scroll up and read you lazy piece of waste (jk if it is tl:dr gtfo :))

I have both, but I just play Xbox more because 95% of my friends own a Xbox instead of PS3. I would go with PS3 being better as live is free, but there are also Xbox only good games, too.
-
I personally like the PS3 more, it has free wi-fi and better graphics, plus it has one of my favorite games on there Infamous :D
-
For Xbox adventure... I think Bastion was pretty nice in terms of indie-adventure.
-
I agree with everything you said Equinox :D At first I thought this was going to be someone listing why "xBox is better than PS3" but it turned out to be completely true, not many people know that the reason XBox versions of cross platform games look best is because they are actually holding back the potential of the PS3!

My friend does.

Cool beans! All of you got what I was trying to point at. This actually saddens me, I reeeeeeaaaaaalllly hope the next gen gaming won't be fucked up like this.

Indie games don't really count.

Thank you. I always hear, "Xbox is better because *insert stupid reason here*" and I barely ever hear good reasons. Then I say the truth, and they yell at me and storm off. Now this...... :D
-
I have never owned or played a PS3, but if only they would make Spyro their mascot, maybe then I'd own one.

:P
Spyro 3: Year Of The Dragon is my favourite game of all time, no doubt. There is literally NOTHING wrong with that game in my eyes. Everyone here should buy the psOne classic of it, it's amazing.

fuck, that looks like the dragon from Skylanders
-
Skylanders?
-
fuck, that looks like the dragon from Skylanders
Skylanders is a shitty spin-off game that plays nothing like the games it's based on; Spyro
So actually that IS the dragon form skylanders, but in a much better game :p

Spyro is fucking amazing.
On another note :P
I agree with what you are saying Equin0x, I considered buying a PS3 for simple exclusives like Uncharted and Little Big Planet (I love them) but I cant deny the price of the PS3 is quite a turn off when you compare it to the others.
Everything was better when we had Sega & Nintendo etc. There were no cross-platform games (Not a bad thing but have helped transform the games industry to a cash cow) and unfortunately, We will probably see a similar problem when the next generation of consoles come along. We've already seen how the Wii U can only really handle PS3 graphics which is a huge let down not to mention it's terrible launch titles.
My Point - The gaming industry is dying & growing. For people like me it has changed massively and just involves repeated sequels and boring concepts with not much effort put into them. Occasionally there is a gem found amongst the garbage but that is a rare sight.
To the new generation (Younger kids) its growing, gaming will never be like we once saw it or felt about it but that's how times change.
Heck, I sound like an analyst :P

Heres what I say. The PS3 can do graphics much better than the other big consoles. The only problem I have with any console it the fact that they are so cheap. I cant say how many of those crap machines I have fixed in my time but it is a lot. As for me I will stay where the TRUE graphics and 3D are. Windows PCs
