THE FIRST QUESTION THAT APPEARS IN ONCE MIND IS "WHY THE XBOX 360 IS NAMED THAT WAY?" BECAUSE THE SAME QUESTION APPEARED IN MY MIND . ACTUALLY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO NAME XBOX 2 BUT THIER COMPITITORS WHERE ALREADY ON 3 SO THIS IS THE REASON WHY THEY CAME UP WITH THE NAME XBOX 360 REPRESENTING ITS ALL-ROUND CAPABILITY OF GAMING,MEDIA AND SHARING CAPABILTIES.

        NOW THIS WAS THE INTRODUCTORY PART AND NOW THE REAL THING THAT IS ABOUT THE COMPARISON.A PLAYSTATION 3 RUNS WITH A 3.2 GHz, 256MB of XDR RAM at 3.2 GHz, 256MB GDDR3 VRAM at 700 MHz WHEREAS AN XBOX 360 RUNS AT A 512MB OF RAM WELL ACCORDING TO THE TECHNO GEEKS ITS BASICALLY LANDS UP ON THE SUPERIORITY BETWEEN BOTH THE GAMING CONSOLE AND WITHOUT A DOUBT PLAYSTATION 3 IS SUPERIOR THAN AN XBOX 360 IN ITS GRAPHICS CAPABILITIES WHILE BOTH OF THE GAMING CONSOLE HAS THE BLOOM EFFECTS BUT IN THE AREAS OF LIGHT ABSORBTION,SUBSURFACE REFARCTION AND HIGHLIGHTING IS MUCH BETTER IN A PLAYSTATION 3 WHEN COMPARED TO AN XBOX 360.

        ALTHOUGH XBOX 360 LOOKS INFERIOR TO A PLAYSTATION 3 BUT IT STEALS THE MARKET BECAUSE MICROSOFT HAS A MASS MARKET APPEAL.THE XBOX 360 ALSO GAVE IMPORTANCE TO ITS FEATURES LIKE XBOX LIVE WHICH IS NOT GIVEN IMPORTANCE IN A PLAYSTATION 3 ONE MORE DRAWBACK THAT A PLAYSTATION 3 HAS IS ITS INABILITY TO BURN A DVD.BUT AS WE ALL KNOW THAT PLAYSTATION 3 STANDS OUT IN THE CROWD AND STEALS THE DAY.
