  Time to buy the first generation of 3DS and wait until I can hack and mod the sh*t out of it.

  
  
  Must now buy first-gen Kinect.
  
  PS3 has like...three games? :l
  
  It has great potential though.

  When you say ps3 doesn't have games, do you mean Exclusives?
  Because even if you do, you're wrong.

  If we considered shared games on the ps3, it also doubles that list.
  I'd get blazblue for it in a heartbeat.
  
  Also, HD remake of Ico and Shadow of Colossus.
  
  And the PSN network has plenty of ps1 games to download. The 360 does not.

  PSN Network is also free to access, XboxLive is a scam.
  
  Pay to have wifi in your house, pay for the unit, then pay for the unit to use wifi.
  
  But I remember when this topic used to be about the 3DS...

  Hah! Xbox 360 is still better than the PS3.
  The PS3 gets crappy ports which makes games less enjoyable like Bayonetta for example.

  Port problems were fixed in a firmware update.
  
  I like the 360 more, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna let people make fun of a device that doesn't deserve the ridicule it gets.
  
  3DS announced to use Friend Code, again. The entire world cries in agony as Nintendo trollololol.
  If anyone should be bashed, its Nintendo and their Friend Code system.
  
  The Friend Code system is an ILLUSION that an online system exists. Nintendo hates hosting online services. No one ever uses it, save for Monster Hunter.

  Wait what's so bad about the Friend Code system?
  I never used my DS on Wi-Fi so I shouldn't know.

  Its a generated code for each game for each console. For both Wii and DS.
  This simply replaces the universal account management for the console itself, like the PSN and 360 have.
  
  The only way to connect to someone is if you use their code. There is no chat lobby, there are no game channels lobby, and for some strange reason, the netplay is not region locked.
  
  The only "netplay" offered by any online games is a "random" grouping done by the wii with anyone around the world. This makes the game lag like balls.
  
  The only "friend netplay" offered by any game is to literally use the friend code to privately invite someone. Afterward you need to play with no communication whatsoever.
  
  Monster Hunter 3 was the only exception to this horrible system where you were given a chat interface, which you could slowly and horribly use the wiimote to click down each key, or just attach a usb keyboard. You could also add players directly from the game, which was nice.
  
  Nintendo only gives the illusion of having a netplay option. Since they don't actually provide a direct service, no one ever uses the netplay.

  I don't want to get in a PS3 vs Xbox 360 debate in a 3DS thread.

  Thats not true QQQQ
  
  360 arcade is the best thing to happen to any console.
