But there is no games worth playing on the PS3 right now, My PS3 is nothing but a $600 dvd player. Right now i play my 360 every day.

point being......?  it takes a while for good games to come out. that's how it went for 360. that's how it is for ps3.

 btw, ps3 plays blu-ray too, so not only is it a $600 dvd player, but a $600 blu-ray player. pretty good deal.

Yeah, the PS3 is $600, but if you are going to keep replacing/repairing your 360, in the long run it's going to be cheaper to have a PS3 than to keep gaming on the 360. Plus you have a wealth of PS2 games to keep you busy between PS3 releases as well... :)

Yes. The PS3 will never break and has some really fun games out right now and more on the way. For me my 360 just sits there unless I feel like playing C&C.

Dunno, I owned an xbox360 but it was always having black screens of death so I returned it to get my cash back (after a week) at bestbuy.

I only tryed the ps3 to a friend's house and I'll surely buy it this summer, so if you finished all the games you wanted to play on the x360, you could change your console. I mean, I had an xbox when it popped (the 1st xbox), and after some month, I got tired of it, and was frustrated of not having a ps2 to play Final fantasy X... And one of my friends said he was tired of his ps2, so we switched, and I was REEAALLYY happy. So maybe you could, yeah.

 Or simply wait a bit to have more money and buy a ps3 also, so you'd have all the big consoles.

And I play my PS3 more then my 360 because I like the games the PS3 has so far and I'm bored/uninterested with the 360 lineup.

 

However TC, if you intend to trade then you will have to wait until around September for the next wave of PS3 games.

Yes the PS3 is a whole lot more than just the most reliable game console. It is actually a muti-media center and the best Blue-Ray player you could own. Another thing with the latest firmware update even the PS2 games are out of this world. The wireless controller is the best one I've ever seen.

That's because you have a 360/PS3 which is uneccessary because they have a lot of the same multiplatform games.  If you have PS3 only you will be playing that everyday.

 I did too got tired of paying for XLive for over 4 years and sick of seeing "ring of death". It's been 3 months now I have PS3.....and I cant wait til HeavenlySword comes out! Right now PS3 only got a few good games but this summer will have a few good more, this winter it will be HOT for PS3.

 Oh, and youknow it PS3 online play is free.

Fight Night on the PS3 is the best version. It doesn't have blur effects as the 360 does, but the amzing skin textures make up for it big time. The PS3 version also have a new camera which lets you play from the veiw of your boxer. The statistics and ranking system for Online are much better too.

haha i wish i could buy all 3 . College student and poor as hell. I can get about 450 for all my xbox stuff and will have to put 200 more just to get the ps3 and start all over with the game collection, wheel. etc.  but like i said my xbox is breaking so its probably worth it...

Just look at the list of exclusives, if you like them more then 360's exclusives(which most peole do...) then get a PS3. simple! The only negative is that they won't start coming out until mid summer.(Lair or whatever it's called now comes out July 31).

Anyone who thinks of exchanging their system for another in my mind is jus plain dumb....if u want a certain system jus go out and buy, otherwise ur jus gonna rebuy the one u got rid of because of games ur wanna play that are only on that system.

DON'T DO IT....yet, WARNING the PS3 has no games out that are fun and makes you feel good about being a gamer. Stick with the 360 until the PS3 gets more games out which won't happen till around fall or christmas. Then trade it in when they can actually meet the 360's game lineup. Trust me on that, my brother bought a 60GB PS3 and now he's selling it to me for $400 because it was shockingly boring.
