    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

      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

      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.

    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

    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.)

      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

    Now it's "You got a console but all your friends are one by one slowly moving to PC and the games you play aren't crossplayable".

Mostly because of halo because you could hook up multiple Xbox’s to play huge lan games of halo and that is a memory I’ll always have. Having 4 Xbox’s hooked up running cords throughout the house into different rooms on multiple TVs and playing halo all day. Idk which one is technically better but to me Xbox will always win.

    The 360's biggest advantage from the beginning was achievements and online capabilities.

They turned it around later on, but it was initially Microsoft's game by a mile.
