Okay so I have some extra cash to spend. A 360 slim for $300 or buy a bunch of ps3 games? I still need to get BFBC2, RDR, and some sports games. What do you guys think?

My advice is to go with more games. spend it on more games than on a whole new console that will cost you even more money

Games. Always games. If you still want to get a 360 when you have no more games to play then think about getting one.

360 and get the superior version of those games. Seriously though, just get the games. You haven't even said why you wanted a 360 anyway.

Only do this if you don't mind loud fans and no way to install games to resolve it...

Get more games.

New 360 is a waste because you can play those same games on your PS3, regardless what drama-queen graphics whores would think.

Unless, you want 360 exclusives, then by all means, go for a new 360.

But overall, get more new PS3 games.

He could buy a used harddrive. As for the fan well, that would be better then buying one system with no money left to spend on games.

Some awesome games. I dunno, I'd still go with the games, then save up the rest for the 360.

If you ar to buy RDR, then buy a 360 first, then buy it on 360

That is for sure

360 Versions looks better but I haven't had any problems on the PS3 version regarding glitches or performance yet so, I'd say he's fine with that version.

Get a 360. You say it's got some exclusives you want, and all your friend have them.

Playing games with friends is always better then random people, so geting the multiplats you want for the PS3 on the Xbox would be a better course of action since you can play with your friends.

honestly get a wii if you dont' have one or upgrade your PC.

I got a 360 and now only to find that it dosen't have the type of qulity games I'm really looking for. just look at the "Which, according to you, is the best Xbox 360 title?" threadhttp://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=27383678&tag=topics%3Btitle and you see the 360 fans them selves list games like Kameo (2005 game?) , Halo 3, Lost Oddessy(7.5game?), Fable 2 a bunch of multiplats that's avalible on PC or PS3 or both or games that arent even out yet as 360's best game

the only qualty game Ive played on 360 is Forza 3, and yes people do list that as well but honestly...GT5 releases this year so you wont miss it much. Wii at least has real exclusivesand high quality orginal titles you can't experience anywhere else just like PS3. MS dosen't seem to care about making great games. From my experience unless you are specifically looking to game with people on xboxlive (50 a year service) or simply just love Halo,then 360 isn't a good purchase if you have a PS3.

Mass Effect 1-2-3, Fable 2-3, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Alan Wake, Splinter Cell, Banjo 3, Kameo, Pinata 2, Tales of Vesperia etc are top of the top quality imo and all on 360
