What is a better value for $499? iphone or PS3 - Blu-ray Forum

MotionBlurr · 01-25-2008, 10:06 PM

I am tired of people say the price of PS3 is or was too high. Of course is high compared to the X-box and the Wii but compared to what you get in the PS3 and the prices of other things (like the Ipod), I think its a great value.

PS3 of course. The iPhone can't do what my Mogul can do.

IXinchnail · 01-25-2008, 10:08 PM

Are you always on the go (iPhone) or do you enjoy doing stuff at home (PS3)?

Moefiz · 01-25-2008, 10:14 PM

Ps3 of course.....399.99 and you will have change left over to buy some blu movies.

PS3 for $ 499 you get to play Blu Ray movies and all PS2 games.

I had to choose my iPhone. I use it ALL the time and it is probably the most amazing piece of technology I've ever seen. In fact, I'm typing on it right now!! I use it to browse this forum throughout the day!!

PS. I DO love my PS3!

What kind of a dumb comparison is that!!! It's like comparing iphones to PS3's or something ;-)

buy the ps3, it's going to be the one investment that u will not regret for a very very long time. Shoot i paid 950 dollar mine because circuit city's stupid bundles at lauch. Go for it you'll love it just like the rest of us. Plus we get resistance 2 this year.

apple = overrated

tru_to_blu · 01-26-2008, 03:41 AM

PS3 is better than a cell phone. I never use my cell phone because I dont talk much on a phone.

Galley · 01-26-2008, 04:10 AM

iPhones are $399.00.

Mystique · 01-26-2008, 05:03 AM

What the hell? A PS3 is obviously the better choice.

X400 · 01-26-2008, 04:59 PM

iphone sucks as a phone N95 ftw

but in this poll PS3 80 and then the Itouch and then the PS3 40 and then the iphone

Cordre69 · 01-26-2008, 11:05 PM

80gb PS3. Not the iTard.

m_tyson · 01-27-2008, 12:18 AM

PS3 booted into Linux + VOIP = PS3Phone

hellmonkey · 01-27-2008, 02:48 AM
