    I still have a ps3 and 360, but the ps3 gets more use because all my favourites on 360 can be played better elsewhere.

    If i wanna play Infamous I can’t get that anywhere, the ratchet and clank games are nowhere to be found. The Jak games got rereleased, but they’re expensive. Sony totally abandoned their back catalogue. The original ps3 model had good backwards compatibility, but those aren’t very available and also will eventually break if you actually use it.

    I mean, sure, you can play the soundtrack of some more games? But i don’t think many people are still putting in their ost cds in their consoles.

      It’s true that most 360 headliners got onboard the ark. Halo games, the Gears games are about to get rereleased, Dead Rising, stuff like that. But there are some games that have no PC port (Forza 4, PGR 3/4, Import Tuner, the Ubisoft Naruto games, Crackdown) and even for the ones that’re backward compat (Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon) it’s no way worth getting an XB One or SX when not all 360 games work anyway.

      I will admit my PS3 gets more use too, partly because I installed PS3HEN on it so I can pirate-jammin and also because yeah, the exclusives are way better. Infamous 1 & 2, every Motorstorm game, Demon’s Souls, LittleBigPlanet 1 & 2, The Puppeteer, Folklore, all that good shit. Also there are some games that are on other platforms but end up better on PS3 anyway, like Alone in the Dark Inferno or Fatal Interia EX =)
