Didn't switch, but I sold my 360 due to it being pointless and redundant. All I would play on it are multiplats that I can play on my ps3, and Sony makes the best games, so yeah, not a bad choice on your part.

I have a PS3 and 360. 360 is my main console of choice and is the best HD system this gen in my opinion.

LOL. Okay.

can't he have both consoles and prefer the 360 over the PS3?? what's wrong with that?

Sure he can. But I don't think I've ever seen a post from that poster that wasn't bashing the PS3 or Sony in some way. So it's highly dubious, he's free to proclaim he owns both as if he isn't a massive troll, I'm free to greet that proclamation with massive amounts of skepticism and derision.

[QUOTE="themyth01"] Didn't switch but I've had a PS3 for a while and the library is pretty lackluster of quality. Games are so short and online sucks. themyth01

i know your lying;)

Ok yo u got me, I love my PS3 games, except Heavy Rain, that game sucks big time.

*PSN does suck though, the speeds of downloads and damn installs. PSN store is good though.

PSN is just glaringly inferior, ESPECIALLY the PS Store... why does is it NOT part of the XMB like the Marketplace is part of the Dashboard? PS Store is also a DREADFULLY disorganised mess in comparison with the Xbox Marketplace.

I've never seen you say anything positive about XBOX and I don't take everything you say with skepticism. But now I'm curious, do you own a 360?

I don't. And I've never claimed to. But my posts aren't constantly laced with vitriol.

I can easily say positive things about the 360. It has a superior online system. It is good value, and has consistently been priced more economically than the PS3. It has a good library of games, arguably the best library of games.

If it had more games I wanted specifically for it, I would get one.

What other big name exclusives are there to look foward to on the 360...seriously? I could give you Forza but then there's GT5 comming on PS3 this year... so

Fable III is released next month on Xbox 360. Not to mention XBLA games like Comic Jumper.

he said big...and he also said exclusive

I brought an Xbox first and a PS3 a year later. I wish my brought a PS3 first its a far better console has much better games and free online. There is no reason for people to be paying to play online its pathetic. I can also connect my PS3 to my PC and watch movies etc. Xbox 360 is the worst console ive ever brought.

mattuk69

Thats funny, I have BOTH my PS3 and 360 connected to my PC to watch movies etc. I fail to believe that you couldn't figure out how to connect your 360 to your PC since it is easier than connecting the PS3 (although not by much).

OT, there is no way I would have been happy to trade my 360 for a PS3. Maybe I am just greedy...lol

i actually had a 360 then switched to a PS3. not really a fan of most of the exclusives on the PS3. anyways i traded my PS3 back in for another 360 and went to walmart and got a bluray player.im perfectly happy with my choice. and for those who do not believe me about the PS3 my name is lycan7hropy1975. IMO the 360 exclusives are better. ill take 3 great ones a year over 10 good ones anyday.

Well Microsoft had better get to releasing some weeaboo crap soon then, eh?

Give it a rest Lemming. I'd say switching from 360 to PS3 would be a good idea. However, buying a PS3 while keeping your 360 will lead to disappointment, as you will play almost all multiplats on your 360, making your PS3 only for exclusives. If you want to do that, get a Wii.

No, its just no one likes all the Anti PS3 propaganda you post. We get it, you hate PS3. Nobody cares. Your not going to make us see the light or any crap like that.

You have a very valid point, that exactly what happened to me. I buy all multiplats on my 360 and use my PS3 for exclusives only.

Ive never ever sold a Console to get a competing one in the same generation. I always saved my money and bought the other one I wanted. That way I had both. I really would never suggest sellinga console even if you dont liek what it has now, because their could be something you do want later on.

Pics . PS3+Uncharted2+Your GS User Name+Today's Date or it didn't happen.

lol, you're the guy who said Uncharted 2 has screne tearing and textuer loading problems, so you obviously don't have any problems with claiming to have experienced things that you clearly have not.

I am going to go with "it didn't happen"

Lol. CuteCakes...I can sense the fakeness. With your original post. And how the PS3 is the worst console you have ever had (in that other thread) out of a mutitude of consoles you own. Hmmm.

Fakeness..

I traded my 360 in over a year ago for my PS3 and it was the best game decision I've ever made. The 360 is a waste of money and the PS3 is the console of my choice easily. Therefore to answer your question...Hell No, I do not regret it one bithkymike
Did the same thing in 2008. Best trade ive ever made.

I sold my 360 for a Slim PS3. I regretted my decision. I am happy with my PS3. I missed my 360. I bought a new one. Now I am a happy man. And now I regretted selling my Wii.

I had a 360 back in 2006 it got RROD and got rid of it, in 2007 DECEMBER i got my first ps3 a 40GB, in 2008 i got another one it was 80 GB, in 2009 i got an elite 360 and it got one RROD and fixed, and in 2010 i got a 360 slim and never had any problem but if i had to choose between the two i defenitley choose a ps3 because i prefer the ps3 more and my 360 is currently collecting dust but i'm not saying it's a bad consle it's good but not better than the ps3 and the ps3 has better exclusives and i play almost all my multiplats on the ps3 and some on the 360.

I own all three consoles this generation and the Xbox 360 is leaps and bounds above the other two (well, just the PS3 as the Wii is virtually non-existant). You do NOT want to trade/sell your Xbox 360 for a PS3 because the only thing you will gain is more remorse over making a big mistake. Think about what you are saying for a few minutes and then ask yourself if you really want to trade the system with more popular exclusives, the better versions of multiplats, and far superior online capabilities for a stripped down console that tries to be a 360.

I traded it in, best decision of my life, the 360 really doesn't have any games anymore, the PS3 is where it's at. Plus I really hate Microsoft now, I heard a lot of stories of "M$ is Evil, they're greedy suits, they don't care about anything but money", I always brushed those off, learned the hard way. I'm staying far away from them from now on.

Or he could really think about it and realize he wants to trade for a console with almost the same games, better exclusives and equivalent online for free.

At least I was smart enough to get ps3 at the first place . I mean if you have both then its the best combination but if you had to choose one then ps3 for sure . Xbox is just pathtetic compared to ps3 . Subscription , failure rate . MS is just so greedy and he dont care about consumers . Xbox may have some games but ps3 games are 100 times better .

Switching consoles is not a good idea imo. I highly recommend you to at least save up for one. If you can't and your still not pleased with the 360, then go for it.

i own both, i wouldnt recommend trading it in.

not to mention there is a deal on xbox live right now to renew for $84 and you get 2 years of live and $20 in MS points. Pretty damn good deal... which should keep you going until the end of this gen.

TC all these people saying don't ever trade in consoles etc they don't understand some of us don't have the time or money to own a bunch of diferent consoles and support them all, specially when consoles like the 360 require online fee's etc... Ignore them because they've clealry ignored your OP and your situation. Sell the 360, get a PS3. It'll be the best decision you've ever made.

To be honest I wouldint switch. Only because if theres an exclusive on 360 that you want that comes later on you will be pissed. You should just save up for a PS3 to have both. I own all 3 systems and I mainly use my PS3 for everything. Right now my 360 and wiiare just collecting dust till something of intrest comes up. I proboly wont play my 360 again till ME3 and my wii ill proboly play when zelda comes out.

PS3 IS TERRIBLE

It's online is inferior and it keeps taking away features like usb support

you think ms is bad for raising price for online?

its only because the service is superior to psn

PS3's launchup was rubbish and it was at a high price of 599$ TALK ABOUT GREEDY

360 has more better multi plats

PS3's exclusives are all flash and no substance

ur better off buying a wii

limbo

The PS3 was hella expensive at launch yes, but it wasn't greed. They were selling the console at a loss (that means it cost more to make than to sell), obviously they had agenda's on their mind other than day one profit. Like Blu-Ray integration and long-term profit. Did you know the Mini Cooper was originally sold at a huge loss just to beat its competition? Having used PSN and XBL, they're the same. Only difference is one has a subscription.

You do realize they were selling at a substantial loss right? How is that greed, when they are wilfully losing money in the hopes of attaining high marketshare or even selling at all?

they thought they had brand power from the PS2 gen.

PS3's launchup was rubbish and it was at a high price of 599$ TALK ABOUT GREEDY

You do realize they were selling at a substantial loss right? How is that greed, when they are wilfully losing money in the hopes of attaining high marketshare or even selling at all?

they thought they had brand power from the PS2 gen.

Why didn't you answer my question? I asked how it was greed if they sold at a substantial loss on hardware.

They definately did think they had the brand power to pull off high sales, and many people likely did buy it just for the Blu-Ray player, still doesn't answer the question.

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"]If you can live without Halo or Gears then do it.BIacckAce

XBOX has more than just that it has :

lost odyssey 2

banjo

alan wake

mass effect (SOMETHING PS3 DON'T HAVE and i didn't say these were xbox exclusives so don't bother)

limbo

deathsmiles

left 4 dead 2

and much more... than the ps3 can offer

The biggest loss would only be Halo and Gears Multiplayer if someone was to switch. Personally I'm glad I've got both but what you're saying is wrong.

Otherwise I could just as easily say a 360 only owner is missing out on:

  • MGS4
  • GOW 3
  • KZ2
  • KZ3
  • Heavy Rain
  • LBP
  • LBP2
  • Modnation Racers
  • Demons Souls
  • Gran Turismo 5
  • MAG
  • Uncharted
  • Uncharted 2
  • etc...

I have both consoles. PS3 is the better choice. My 360 is just sitting there collecting dust after playing the small selection of system exclusives. Most of the games on Xbox 360 are on the PC, which can be played in higher quality and resolutions. The PS3 doesn't share much with the PC and there exclusives are better.
