PS 3 or Xbox 360

I saw that but think it's baloney. Not saying the 360's cant have probs, but hard to say that it's due to a specific game.

kind of like saying playing a Star Wars DVD wrecked your DVD player! smirk.gif

my thoughts- they played their 360's ALOT more than normal due to the new game. This increase in play made the system fry out (which it shouldnt have done under any circumstances). Really cant blame it on Halo though

i Have played the ps3 and not the 360 so i guess i will be biased and i wont for a second suggest that i know all the detail and tech stuff behind each system, but if i was to buy one of the systems it would be the ps3 just becuase that little 60 bucks a month is just a stupid ammount and why not just get the ps3 and not pay anything?? sounds like a smart idea to me. i dunno i think paying to be online is dumb but apparently thats just me.


On the surface, I would agree, but you are not paying only "too play against other people". Yes, that is the crux of it. But you get sooo much more for that $60.

We're talking movies, tv shows, game videos, arcade games. Not to mention updates and add ons to games. You have a live vision camera that you can use to live chat with anyone in the world.

I'm sure there are a few things that I'm missing.

Yes, I may be sounding like a fanboy, but if Sony offers all that for free with (relatively) hack free online gaming, then I say get the PS3.

BTW, it's $60 a year......big difference


the online on the ps3 is indeed free...you have to remember you have to pay for movies, TV shows, game vids and demos free on both systems, arcade games not free on either system but offered on both add ons such as map packs available on both you can live chat with anyone in the world using the playstation eye and a WIRELESS headset with the new software for the camera (free) you can do some pretty cool editing. it comes with built in wireless save you 80$ right there built in blu ray if your into HD movie viewing saves ya 179$ right there and lord only knows how much it will save you in AA batteries due to the stock rechargeable controller with the ps3 not to mention the 60$ a year in live cost(could get spendy) and also check out youtube for playstation HOME witch is due to come out soon and is.. do I even need to say it.........FREE and also remember this is coming from someone with a 60 gb PS3 an Xbox 360 elite and also a wii... so take it for what its worth

    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet 
    • I’ve only seen that from the air.
