Very fun video to put together for everyone! I always get asked which console should someone buy or collect for in 2024, so I figured a video would help!

Dumb ass video ……… even in 2024 …… people can play this shit on current gen ? Getting people to waste cash on old asf system
Quick answer - Both.
Both consoles are awesome with huge libraries of awesome games to enjoy.
I always suggest both!
Another great video!! Thank you! If I'm allowed to critique, I would've liked to see pictures of the consoles when you talked about what versions you prefer. You and I both know what they look like, but for newbies, it'd be cool to say, THIS is the one I like, get this one. Maybe next time, up to you. Great video!!
Will take that in advisement! Sometimes it takes a while to put these videos together and so I'm usually trying to fit as much as I can into them.
I completely agree with your statement on not seeing the console wars as a legit thing. They both offer great features/games but to sit there and waste breath for one over the other is dumb.
I've always bought all the consoles because they each tend to offer something different.
Your channel is WELL ROUNDED I LIKE IT KEEP IT UP!🙅♀️👍👍
I appreciate it
I too have both,and love them. Struggle with ps3 controller, but love the console. Play my 360 everyday ,while my xbox one sits and collects dust.
360 is awesome, so I can't see any faults with that!
Thank you for you unbiased opinion. Refreshing.
We're all just gamers here! I love collecting and playing!
Why not both?
Always suggest BOTH! I was just doing a video to give perspective.
All bangers. Banger generation. Gears of War vs Resistance miss those days
The new IP that gen were amazing!
Gears Of War
Resistance
Uncharted
Assassins Creed
Left 4 Dead
Mass Effect
Dead Space
Dragon Age
Bioshock
Saints Row
Great video! I own both. I love both consoles. Both have great exclusives. Xbox 360 is my main console since I own a lot of games for it and have been finding games dirt cheap at Thrift stores. When it comes to FPS, action & adventure, and 3rd person shooter games I prefer having it on the 360 because of the hardware and controller. PS3 I have just the exclusive, some fighting games, a couple of platformers, and a couple of RPGs. I love that both consoles are backward compatibility. You can play all physical PS1 games on the PS3 or if you have the BC PS3 model you can play both PS2 and PS1 and play over 7,000 games, which is a great value. 😃Xbox 360 you can play around 462 original xbox games, which is amazing. Both offer great value on the table.
I love seeing 360 or PS3 games at thrift stores! Sadly, not as many as I used to see these days lol
This video made me decide to unpack my Xbox 360 and set it up for my son. He’s too young for controller gaming but I want to introduce him to Kinect Adventures.
My PS3 is still in a box but I might set it up again for the off-road racing game!
That's awesome! Kinectimals is also a great game for kids!
whichever you choose is a solid choice amazing catalog and great exclusives, if you can get both do it
Totally agree!
If you can swing it, get both. Plenty of games and GOTY editions. Both consoles have some good exclusives. 360 can play some Xbox originals. All PS3 models can play PS1 games, but you could buy the PS3 model that plays ps2 games.
So many great games, I definitely AGREE!
Is there a Xbox 360 model with no rrod? If not how do you fix it? I really want it because of l4d2 but scared of rrod and is there a ps3 equivalent of rrod on ps3? Last question where do you think the best place to buy them is
Just get the slim version or E version. It's a solid console.
@@thegamethrifter thx man
2010 phat with jasper motherboard,prefect 😊
@@RifhjJjddjjr No problem!
Jasper boards have the lowest RROD rate of the old fat versions, but are loud compared to slims and E consoles. Slims are probably the best bet since E versions also had slightly worse optical drives IIRC.
I agree collect both, so that way you can get the exclusive games
It's always a good idea to get both!
Xbox 360!
Can definitely make a great case for it!
Still play the hell out of my 360, PS3 and, Wii too! Even more than my Switch and Series X. Didn't get a PS5 yet. As it just doesn't really make me feel the need to buy one. But yeah, the 6th gen is still amazing. And for me, the 7th gen is the perfect sweet spot. It's the peak of gaming in my opion. Still collect for all three 7th gen systems.
I own a PS5 and Series X and I still play a ton of 360 and PS3 stuff lol
There isn't a huge library of games for current gen only that is very appealing IMO
I own 3 ps3s two og ps2 models a slim and a xbox360 slim
Nice to see so many people collect!
Both Sony and Microsoft need to make single storefronts for all their games, and which system you're on determines what you have access to, so there'd be no need to shut them down.
I agree, I've been trying to get as many on the 360 as possible but the store runs horribly
Definitely get both - both systems are relatively inexpensive to collect for and it’s still quite easy to pick up the consoles in decent condition these days. I’ve got a PS3 Slim & a PS3 Super Slim and an Xbox 360 S & Xbox 360 E, I find myself playing more on those systems more than the current generation - looking for games in Gamepass, I find everything just a bit ‘meh’ whilst I still regularly play Gears of War / Halo 3 / Uncharted 2 / God of War 3 on those older consoles. That generation was the pinnacle of gaming - no huge day 1 patches, no endless install times, no games broken at release, no service games with micro transactions. Games were just fun, you just put the disc in and played.
Can't disagree with that!
Just to note, there were games broken on release, but it wasn't the norm. For instance, Uncharted 2 and 3 had issues with some of the PS3 revisions unless patched and GT6 was also unplayable without the day one patch. On the other side, I remember RAGE, GTA V and some other games having similar issues. The difference is that you could download those updates and implement them on an offline console, while on newer consoles once they decide to kill servers, those games are done for until somebody hacks a solution.
If people are able to they should use both. For some reason I find prices for the same game on one or the other vary considerably.
Did you mention the Blu-ray player of the PS3? I think it does a better job playing those than the Series X; so much so I considering bringing it out of retirement.
Totally agree on the 360 marketplace; it's an absolute pile.
Backwards comp 350 games really do look great on the Series X. Do some even get serious upgrades in content such as DLC etc?
So much so that I'm convinced that Kingdoms of Amular Reckoning is the Re-Reckoning version. I'm probably wrong though.
Yea, pretty nice Blu-ray player on PS3. I think at the end of the day it's a great time to collect for both.
I use to love 360 but RROD around Christmas one year left a sour taste in my opinion. But I still play and collect on my PS3. I do have a Xbox1 and Series X but prefer PlayStation as my main console plus the Switch of course.
The newer 360's were much better, but I would still recommend new thermal paste on 360's and PS3's. It'll help them last longer.
I got my 360 shortly after launch and picked up Madden which was a mistake, PS3 I got the Metal Gear Solid Bundle - good times best generation of gaming
Absolutely great time!
I have 3 E model 360's. 1 fat and 2 slim PS3. Hoping they last me a long time.
There's a good chance they'll last a very long time with proper ventilation and care!
I have both!
AWESOME TO HEAR!
I want to buy both of them!
Both are easy to collect for!
PS3. Because at the end of the year you’ll still have digital store to go to
Yeah, I know it'll only be a matter of time before it goes though.
@@thegamethrifter I mean they already tried shutting down and they got backlash then they decided not to
PS3 for exclusives.. Xbox 360 for multiplats 💪🏽
Good point! Majority of multiplatform titles were better on 360 because the PS3's Cell Processor was difficult to program for.
Agreed. Very few multiplats on my ps3, and they’re the ones that run great but mostly exclusives. Where as there are some exclusives on my 360, but mostly multiplats
This is the correct answer I’ll add one more: both for exclusives 360 for multi
PC for multiplat, xenia emulator and RPCS for exclusives 😂
@@SatchelChannel Some people like to collect and get the real feel of the hardware. That's pretty much me, I never play PC or emulate. It's the thrill of the hunt for the games and nostalgia of the actual platform.
Both -
PS3 has better ease of use nowadays (both if untouched and if modded/with CFW),
XBOX 360 has a bit more FPS and better resolution in most multiplats,
XBox controller is a bit more robust and confortable in long term use (although I like the feel of PS 2-3-4 molds). Multiplats also tend to be a bit cheaper on XB360 (at least where I live),
you can get most of the XB360 games for under 5EUR, and nothing goes above 35EUR unless its a JP import, and PS3 games go on average in the 5-10 EUR range, but with some rarer games reaching 60+ EUR prices (horror games mostly).
Iin terms of exclusives, PS3 has more interesting stuff and more stuff in general.
Both consoles are great if modded, PS3 is more mod friendly, Xbox has better performing emulators for older gen consoles).
I have both and If I had to choose one of them it would be PS3 due to personal preference of games, but the margins are thin and I had only Xbox360 for 2 years and survived just fine :D
Yeah, it comes down to preference. I always say it's best to have both.
It doesn’t make a lot of sense to go crazy collecting for the ps3 unless Sony is going to step up backwards compat. Your stuck playing those games on the ps3 which is an aging console even 1st party controllers are getting hard to come by. At least with Xbox you can collect and play almost your full library on one console and take advantage of the new hardware.
Yeah, there's some truth here. I will say that one reason to own a PS3 is there's a lot of exclusives still tied to that platform. The Resistance trilogy, Ratchet & Clank Saga, Killzone 2 and 3, LittleBigPlanet 1 and 2 as well as Karting, Motorstorm games and even Metal Gear Solid 4.
I have both ❤
Me too! It's the best of both worlds really!
Having both is a must imo. PS3 for the exclusives and 360 for everything else. The 360 does also have amazing exclusives though, just not as many. I was a big PS fanboy back then and got into the XB once the slim got released. XB won me over with ease as the Multiplatform games, which make up the majority of games, always played and looked better on the 360. The tiny updates, ability to install games to the hard drive, commitment to backwards compatibility and much higher quality controller also cemented this. 360 won that generation imo. Just a shame Microsoft chose to go with DVD discs as aside from their smaller memory size, they’re nowhere near as durable as Blu-ray Discs so the PS3 wins in that department.
Can't go wrong honestly!
Which one has better resolution?
Pretty much all games favor Xbox 360 in this area.
I've always been a Playstation person but I really respect how good the xbox 360 was it had so many good games and it's a tad better but both consoles are good in their own way however I do feel like the ps3 console lasts longer cause the xbox 360 always seemed to have problems overtime especially disc read problems but if I had to choose I'd go xbox 360
It depends on the version of Xbox 360 that you buy. Original consoles are very prone to Red Ring, even today. If you get the slim or E then it's much more reliable.
Short answer: 360. Long answer: Both, but the Xbox has always been my primary console since the OG Xbox. However, that doesnt mean I hate the PS. Too many great exclusives on PS. However, I have virtually every multiplat Xbox version, sans a few exceptions, like NFS:HP2, which plays better on PS2.
Yeah, can't go wrong with both!
Im going to get both or a xbox one plus a ps3 for free online .
Can't go wrong!
Ima go with the ps3 just because you can still access and buy so many fantastic and expensive ps1 and ps2 classics for cheap and still play those exclusive ps3 games. Parasite Eve, fatal frame, god hand, the warriors, the adventures of tron bronne, Dino crisis one and two,klonoa etc.
Can't go wrong really!
Love both but If I have to pick one, 360 it is
Can't go wrong!
BOTH!
Ideally, YES!
ps3 for me like killzone 2 nothing could not touch it then uncharted 1 then 2 drop then 3 then last of us was blown away same with mgs4 not all multiplatform games ran better on 360 final fantasy 13 gtav marvel vs capcom 3 portal 2 to name a few .as for gt 5 was best simulator game for that gen .
Killzone 2 was amazing! Uncharted 2 might be one of the best games of that entire generation!
Xbox 360 only because its my favorite console and even with back wards compat in the Xbox ecosystem you can't beat a real 360 with so many games that aren't back compat
The fact that you can play a lot of 360 games on newer Xbox's is alluring for sure!
I'd say get a cheap original Xbox one to get retrocompatibility , ability to play new titles and gamepass as well ass free to play games and a PS3 that can be modded to enjoy exclusives free online and some jrpg titles!
Backwards compatibility is awesome!
Ps3 for exclusives,for free online and free games with Hen/CFW
Really can't go wrong!
Not even fair comparison.. XSX got like 800 or so backwards titles, more actually probably being added. Lots of XBOX 360 titles they have, ENHANCED.
so why need a x360 xbox side.... BUTT I get what this video is about somebody caring JUST about 360/ps3 gen titles.
There's a lot of backwards compatible stuff, but if someone were just looking to collect in 2024 I hope to beak it down a bit for them lol
I mean technically there’s around only 633 backwards compatibility out of the 2,155 games and only around 75/76+ og xbox games are compatible on xbox one and series x
BOTH
Can't go wrong!
PS3's controller gives me instacramp. It doesn't matter what games are on a system, if the controller sucks...its deal breaker.
It felt like a step down for sure, but there's actually adapters for PS3 to use an Xbox 360 controller!
There's a few third-party controllers that work really well.
Both
That's the gist of it lol
PS3 until I die 💯
Can't go wrong! Also, new rumor suggests Sony is actively working on PS3 native backward compatibility with the PS5. So that'd be a huge win!
U should NOT make a video like thus mi us the red ring the 360 Is the best of the 2 price wise and other ....I liked thus video I thought u were a pony making this video ..ur not ..I'm a 22 year EVERY CONSOLE owner so I have ZERO bias....I love both Sony & XBOX ...great video! U gained a subscriber 👍✌️✌️✌️✌️
I own a bunch of PS3's and 360's. I just get asked a lot about them both in 2024. Both are great to collect for. I think the backwards compatibility on newer Xbox's gives an added advantage to collecting 360 games right now.
360 for multi plats and better exclusives imo.
Can't really go wrong!
Both consoles are great. Ill say ps3 has the edge but at a cost. Skyrim for example is garbage on PS3 theres other cross platform games that dont run good compared to 360. Hardware i like the 360 controller better but that battery life on ps3 (provided you change it years later) is king. Also jailbreaking the ps3 and having a fully backwards compatible ps3 im going to say ps3 is the winner.... BUT you cant go wrong with 360 especially if gaming on a budget even with the prices going up compared to ps3 prices.
Yeah, the multiplatform stuff for sure was an issue. But, you might need a PS3 more in 2024 due to some exclusive games being stuck on that platform. On the other hand, a lot of 360 games will carry with you to newer hardware. So I can see both points!
360 🎉
Can't go wrong!
Ps3 easy.
Could be!? Maybe because a lot of PS3 games are still tied to the console with no backwards compatibility ?
Neither
Well, certainly an opinion!
@thegamethrifter my bad man. I'm a collector of many things but I have limited space. I hate clutter plus you can still play most of these games through their services
I completely agree with your statement on not seeing the console wars as a legit thing. They both offer great features/games but to sit there and waste breath for one over the other is dumb.
Truth!
Both
That's what I always say!
@@thegamethrifter had both since the beginning although the PS3 was pretty much just a blue Ray player the 1st year as Lair, Resistance, Heavenly Sword, and Dark Kingdom were not the most involved games. I own 3 of each (PS3 Slim & 2xSS then a red ring OG & 2xElite 360s). When I move into my new space I’m going to hook up one SS, Elite, and Switch to a CRT in the office primarily for the Indie games then leave the other SS, Elite, PS4, and XB1 on the LED in living room with the OG 360 and PS3 mini on standby.
