situation- have $900 or so in checking account and will be depositing every time i get paid so ill be putting in $300-$400 or so a month minus having to take out cash for gas and such(i dont work much at all). I want to save my money for a PS3 but I do have a 360, but its been getting the RROD randomly lately but i think i might have cured it as of late. Either way, i dont think it can last much longer, and I'll get it repaired when it does, but I'd like to get a PS3 for a change of scenery. My only question is, why should i get it? I have to use my money to buy books for college soon which blows but i should have more than enough money by that time rolls around this year. Will it really be worth the money? Are the exclusives worth it? never played an MGS game in my life but i bet it is good from what i hear lol. It still doesn't justify buying a PS3 tho IMO. No game is worth $600 or w/e it would cost for a PS3 + the game.

Another thing, how much does the HDD factor? 40gb sounds like enough to me, i have 20gb on my 360 and still have room left and i been playing it for a while. I dont download videos tho and stuff.

thx in advance.

The smart move would be to wait until the end of the year or perhaps the beginning of next year when the PS3 will have most of its flagship titles already released. It's much more satisfying to pick up a system, along with 6 or so games (I.E. Resistance 2, MGS4, KZ2, White Knight, etc...) at one time, rather than over a greater perioed of time.

If you need to ask to be convinced to buy it, when everything anyone tells you is literally ten seconds away at your fingertips if you actually cared, then you probably don't actually want one. Just sayin'.

I see a lot of topics about "Should I buy such-and-such console?" (usually Playstation 3...)

A simple but good rule of thumb is, $100 = 1 game

Example:

You are thinking of buying the PS3, the cost is approximately $400

If you can find 4 games on the PS3 that you want to play (4x100=400), then it is reasonable to buy a PS3.

If you cannot find 4 games you want to play, then you should not buy (at least for the moment).

You should sell your 360 and buy he PS3. The 360 has currently maxed out its potential and so if you want better a looking (console)game than Gears of War 1, then buy a PS3 and it graphically improves with each exclusive game(starting with Resistance).
