360 Vs. PS3

I got a PS3 a couple months back but so far I still don’t have many games for it. While the system -is- good, basically the same as the XBox 360 when it comes to graphics and sound, I don’t like the controller as much. One place where the PS3 controller really shines though is the D-pad. The 360 directional pad is horrible. Absolute junk. I hate it with a passion. But aside from that the 360 controller is more solid feeling, has better placement for the left analog stick and the trigger buttons are better designed. My fingers keep slipping off the Playstation 3 triggers.

Having said that though, the system does have a few good exclusives that make it worth owning. I’ve long been a fan of the Ratchet & Clank series and you just can’t get it a non-Sony console. There’s a few interesting looking RPG’s that I haven’t played yet, but plan to some day, those being Folklore, Dark Kingdom and Valkyria Chronicles.
