Since your xboax has so many more games..I would suggest asking for an addl 50-100 bucks for the rade, unless you forgot to mention anything else you are getting with the ps3...Are you giving him the wireless router for the x360?

That is a good deal. But mind you, some of the games aren't great, so play them, see if you like them, and then sell a couple. Then you could buy a better game. :)

I would do it as long as you have enough money to buy a game or two. The games that come with are good, but an exclusive or two are gonna the experience worth it.

If you don't care about 360 exclusives then do it. The PS3 is more reliable anyways and has almost the same games.

This sounds like "I'm giving my swapping my Porsche to get a Ferrari" Well if you can afford a Porsche, why notget a Ferrari also. I have never owned another console than Playstation, but I see no point in swapping a console for another.

should have said you had around 10 games... :) I would have done it.... should have thought about it for a minute. Playstation 3 (said it was possible brand new 80GB I'm assuming) - Free Playstation Network - Blu-Ray Player - Wireless Wi-fi - Reliable Hardware - Play w/ your friends - Internet - 7 games (a good start) - Xbox (about 2 years old -> rrod) - Pay for Live (If that bothers you) - Other random accessories you would need over time.... - 18 games (which you probably wont make much money from; to equal the value of the trade) You said you were bored yourself....

I'd suggest you keep the 360 and save the money for a new PS3. You could perhaps sell some of the 360 games you never play to help with the cost. I see no reason to get rid of your 360. Have both consoles and enjoy the best of both worlds.
