It's odd how whenever Scott brings up this war, he never mentions Minecraft being exclusive to the Xbox 360 for a long time. That sold incredibly well and opened the 360 to a new audience that would buy the console solely for Minecraft. It was the easiest way to play private multiplayer worlds with voice chat and easy inviting. Minecraft was huge for the 360's sales. It also helped massively with Minecraft's success and its eventually purchase by Microsoft

The 360 technically had a more powerful GPU, but a weaker CPU, so that's why third-party games looked better and PS3 exclusives took advantage of the cell to supplement its GPU.

[@Aftenark]

and (correct me if im wrong) why overclocking makes such a difference on pc

[@gamy2246]

i believe the ps3 had quite better processing power overall but the apu's architecture was too advanced for the time, so game developers couldn't really optimize for it the best. Some developers though like Naughty Dog learned how to optimize for it and made some beautiful games like Last of Us. The government even implemented tons of PS3's into a supercomputer at one point because linux was able to be installed and they had so much processing power for the time

[@-aexc-]

​​@@Aftenarkou can overclock gpus and cpus, which one are you referring to. pc games can care about either more depending on the game. games with complex simulations like flight sim, cities skylines and civ care more about cpu. most other games care about the gpu more

Can't forget how the 360 allowed you to download portions of your physical games so the disc drive had less work load. Can't remember if the ps3 had a similar feature but it's super useful and I still use it to this day.

[@CAnAbrAvA2011]

Some games had an option to install some content in the harddrive, it made loading times fasters and less frequent crashes during online playing. It was no ps3 menu function, you had to search the options menu inside the game

[@MrMarinus18]

It wouldn't really make much sense to do that on the PS3. The Disc reader was very fast even on the later models. It was actually the hard drive that was the PS3's weakest element. So really putting more strain on the weaker element to save on the stronger one is counterproductive.

[@steelbear2063]

​@@ScottieWallace No you don't

The thing is playing COD on Xbox Live was the most awesome gaming during those years from 2007 to 2013.

[@Spewa-em8cm]

@@MrMarinus18 This is partly false, the PS3 actually had a really slow 2X disk drive since the Blu-Ray technology was so new and expensive. Thats why a lot of games had to be installed to the PS3 hard drive where you could play them straight off the disc on 360.

You forgot something very important. Something that made me hate myself for chosing a 360 and envying PS3 owners: Disc count. I still recall the game that scarred me for life: Star Ocean 4. You had to switch discs once you got to the end game and wanted to back track to a city in the beginning of the game. If you were achievement hunting, then you constantly were teleporting between the last area of the game and a city on disc 1. And every time.... you had to get up and change disc. And then it came to PS3... on a single disc

[@thepurrfectionist365]

I feel you. The Fallout: New Vegas GOTY edition for the 360 required two discs. The PS3 version had everything in one.

[@Evan.280]

The only had a fire multi disc games for the 360, those being Wolfenstin the New Order and FFXIII. I didn’t have an XOne or a PS4 at the time so I had to settle for that. It was stupid and turned me off from going for all the achievements for both games. And Wolfenstein. actually looked really good on the the 360 but when I played it on the One it looked even better

[@Coolman13355]

Several things to add to the controller section. There's two different 360 controllers. The wireless model mentioned, but also a hardwired USB model with no wireless. The wireless model is only wireless even with the Play&Charge Kit. Which while USB-A on one end connects to the controller via a proprietary connection. Now non-detachable and proprietary cables weren't a big deal then. However meanwhile the PS3 made standard a controller that worked both wired and wireless with a regular USB port. (And in their and Nintendo's case using standard BT for wireless not a proprietary signal. Yes the most recent Xbox controllers also support BT.)

[@claudioramirez84]

On top of the controller using AAs, there was no way to turn it off, the only way was to de attach the battery case, which in my case eventually broke off

[@Duskin723]

It’s probably because Xbox had the dominance for most of the gen and PlayStation did a bit of a burst halfway through to catch up and then overtake them. I know a lot of friends I had with 360s who when late gen came around were desperate for metal gear, god of war, ratchet and clank, uncharted, infamous, etc… and a bunch of them did end up getting a ps3 as well because of that

[@azi1720]

As someone who lived in the former Soviet Union I can safely say that I've never met a person who owned an Xbox. Tbh I didn't even know it existed until I discovered youtube. But you can bet your ass everyone had a ps or a dusty old sega lying around The thing is I doubt xbox was much popular outside the Anglo sphere. It still very much behind playstation here even today, prolly because of its US-centric advertisement

[@pangobara8182]

The real issue is that Microsoft has never had much international success with the Xbox consoles. As far as I can tell, the only countries out of the US that really bought any Xbox 360s were the UK and our North American neighbors. Even now that I've graduated college, I've only ever met a single person that has ever owned a PS3. The 360 had a stranglehold over a large portion of the US

The 360's biggest advantage from the beginning was achievements and online capabilities. Sony didn't initially have trophies, and it can NOT be overstated how much of a thing that was at the time. That was a HUGE thing at the start. And Sony's initial online strategy was a mess. They turned it around later on, but it was initially Microsoft's game by a mile.
