Well I've currently got a 360 pro with a 20gb HD and close to 30 games(+ a few downloads on xbox live)And I don't play it much at all,And Im aware its starting to get old(Ps3 has MUCH better hardware). So I'm wondering, What do you guys think on getting a ps3? DO you think I could get enough money from selling the 360 to get one?

If you're forced to sell your 360 in getting a PS3, then I think that waiting until the imminent price drop would be best for you. By then hopefully, you'll have enough to just get the PS3 and not have to sacrifice a console. Selling any console could lead to serious regret. Wait until the price drop. Play it safe.

Hmmmm, yes wait for price drop if money is a problem, and sell the games you never play now so you can get a better price for them. Do not go to gamestop, it is a rip-off. Go to any other place that buys used games.

Maybe you should chill for a while. Rumors have been going around about the price drop coming as soon as April.

Agreed, wait till a price drop. Make sure that there are at least 3-5 games that you really want on a system before you buy one as well. You may want to think about keeping your 360, sounds like you have quite the download collection. It would be a shame to waste all of that. The PS3 is a great system I dont regret getting one. I sold my 360 after I got my PS3, but I did not have any DLC for anything....

When you get your PS3 enjoy!

I would wait a month or so incase their is a price drop in April (their is a rumour of one atleast)

Also ask yourself if PS3 exclusives are worth buying the system. If the answer is yes buy a PS3 if its no then don't buy one.

Yeah you would probably get enough if you sold all of that.But don't sell your 360 for a PS3.It ain't worth it.The PS3 is nice,but it is better if you have both of them.

keep your other system and games, save money and buy a PS3, enjoy the best of both worlds.

I too am fighting the urge to buy a PS3. I have a Wii and a Xbox 360 so the games should help. Adding a PS3 to the roster would seal the deal. When you get that tax refund back after being on top of bills and what not you realize that for once you can treat yourself. Killzone does look quite remarkable. But I have to say that when you own a Xbox 360 for awhile and enjoy it you negate Sony's most ambitious games. The money is in the bank, and I'm off tomorrow! I go into Gamestop to pick up MadWorld, and there's the black console glaring at me. I'm hearing voices...NO...YES...mabe so?? ROFL

Dude dont do that, the 360 still has plenty of life in it. By the time the ps3 is surpassing what it or the 360 can doright now, it will be much cheaper and much more attainable.So basically what im saying is wait till you notice a big difference between the two platforms games, as of right now the games are to similair to justify what you want to do, unless it is motivated by a huge urge to play the ps3 exclusives

Trust what most of the others have said, i agree with them and i dont even own the 360 just a ps3 and pc.

ill be honest with u, i own almost all consoles, from nes to atari 2600(i think thats the name lol), ps3, ps2, ps1, xbox360, now my fav honestly is the ps3, BUT i would never ever sell a console to get another, unless ur forced to and dont have a choice. sellin any console to stores are rip offs, they wont give u ur moneys worth, maybe sellin it on ebay might help. again just wait for a price drop in a month or so ull hear somethin about it, but again if ur forced to sell one to have another then go for it but sell it on ebay or amazon or somethin.

Definitely get a PS3, but not at the expense of selling your 360. Either save up or wait for a price drop.
