hi skunks i want to make a purchase of a gaming console , i am stuck between xbox and play station , for the Xbox i am excited because of the kinect capaibility and for the play station has endless title under it and its PS move my question is , is the Xbox kinect different from the kinects being used for connecting to the PC (i think this will be the determining factor ) and for the play station ..is the move ever going to upgrade to include body movements?????? -- GG
Xbox Kinect is best experienced with one game, Dance Central. Play Station has more fun games and more things you can do with it plus its HD gamming and titles On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 9:53 AM, geoffrey gitagia <ggitagia@gmail.com>wrote:

Perso, I would go for the new Playstation Vita (the new portable one) WIFI 3G .... althoug it is very new; so games suck and price is still a bit high for a portable console. So PS 3 it is :) Forget Kinect On 30 January 2012 09:59, geoffrey gitagia <ggitagia@gmail.com> wrote:

I'd go for the PS3 right now because of GT5 and possibly if I could sell one kidney to buy a 55' 3D TV. On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 10:54 AM, geoffrey gitagia <ggitagia@gmail.com>wrote:

If your intention is purely to get a gaming console, then consider the XBOX - You can get plenty of games for it at fairly good prices. If you are into chipping & such; I consider the art as having matured on the XBOX. I consider PS3 as a "tech box". If you wish to go beyond games and want a solid tech box to tinker & experiment with; then the PS3 is for you. The downside is that if you have to stay legit, then be prepared to fork a little more for the games. Again if you are into jailbreaking - there's plenty of control over the box once you tread that path. The downside is that Sony is constantly sealing all the loopholes and making it harder for jail-breakers. PS : You may need to cross check the firmware version of the PS3 box to ascertain the ease of implementing any jail-break. My opinion may be skewed in that I only own the PS3 slim console.
UUMM thank you Tony for the headsup ...being a geeky person .yes i would like to totally own the device but with the many options of titles under Xbox vs PS3 i think i will go down the PS way maybe in future move will get an update (i am so praying) that will allow detection of skeletal motion detection (kinect apparently is an Israel based company) On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 11:05 AM, Tony Likhanga <tlikhanga@gmail.com> wrote:

While on the titles, try your hands on *Uncharted 3*: Drake's Deception. It's absolutely revolutionary - it does great justice to the team Naughty Dog. I'm still trying hard to be good this year ; maybe Santa will grant my wish to see Naughty Dog & Rockstar pull a merger [?]
PS 3== God of War III (plus God of War titles repackaged for the PS3) - truly intense Red Dead Redemption Hitman Twisted Metal etc name it I dont know what playable formats the Xbox supports -- but the PS3 support of external hardisks and playback of xvid, divx and mp4 formats is quite an advantage. Video media also playable straight from the internet without undue pluggins == Final Verdict is here from a technical point of view (PS3 wins on most fronts): http://www.ign.com/articles/2010/08/26/xbox-360-vs-playstation-3-the-hardwar... BR/// Snn
Forgot the 'Blu Ray" factor (Sony TM) [?] You can play your 3D movies straight up -- no need to buy another device..
Just bumped into this.... if i were Microsoft i would encourage this trend for tablets since we havent seen a hardcore gaming tablet ...heck they can even steal an idea of having it as an optional game controller for the Xbox ... but woooh thats some good stuff from razor On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 5:27 PM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen@gmail.com>wrote:
