What is the most used game system on the market? What is the best game system on the market? I was wondering which game system to buy out of xbox and PS3. My friends have Xbox, but PS3 has a bit better graphics and a game I want that is going to come out. Which system would you buy?

Let's se, nintendo wii, PS2, PS3, Xbox360, PSP. May be Xbox is the leader for now. And i think the most unsuccessful story from Sony is PS3, look at those console, only few people have bought it. Different from Xbox nowadays that many people familiar with.
One of the reason Sony's failure about PS3 is their blue ray disc system, it is more expensive & can't be hijacked or pirated. It's a brilliance idea about technical side, but in marketing side it has become a major pain. It has been a public secret that people buying a console are looking about possibility to play pirated game's DVD, because it is way cheaper. For comparison original game's DVD price approximately $ 30, and the copy of pirated one... only $ 0,5. That's an amazing pocket saver isn't it. PS3 can't be pirated, Xbox360 already pirated... so people prefer Xbox360.
From the game genre, PS3 have more power in RPGs, otherwise Xbox's game genre is action. About graphics, there is no significant different. I would say that I prefer Xbox360

hmm, i tend to go for action more than rpg, BUT there is a game coming out that is mmorpg that i would want more than anything in the world, im serious, i have to have it. but it comes out for pc too, and im debating, im going to wait to see if there is a monthly subscription on it for the pc. PS3 will not have a monthly subscription because it has free internet connection.

Mmorpg? In my country, no such passion about those genre this year. Those genre was popular and booming in a few past years, but not in console style. Mmorpg that popular is on PC based. Tittle like ragnarok, rising force, warcraft dota, or even the old counter strike. But nowadays those only became a memory

I personally have a PSP, cause of the robust multimedia features packed into such a small,portable gadget. For me, I like to carry my multimedia device with me whenever I on the move.
PS3 is a real big hit here in the Indian Market, and I would prefer a PS3 over an X-box console, any day. The visual delight a PS3 delivers is simply amazing. It's an all in one console. Although it's priced slightly higher than the X-box, it's worth every dollar you invest on a PS3 console.

hey danben..
do yourself a favour - stick to Sony products!! I have a PS3, and several of my friends do too. Some of my friends had a xbox360 when the ps3 came out, and after checking the ps3 out at my place, they sold their xbox's to buy the ps3!! maybe xbox is better for gaming online AT THE MOMENT, but ps3 will catch up. i love my ps3 every day and couldn't imagine to even live without it :D . PS3 has more exclusives, Uncharted 2 is gonna be HUGE later this year, and I can't wait to see how the new Call OF Duty is gonna look on the ps3. the ps3 controllers are better than the xbox's, they weigh less and the batteries are rechargeables and last longer. a great investment.
hope I can help if you have futher questions
