I bought the 360 first then the PS3 second. The 360 has more games and is cheaper so there's nothing dumb about it.

I bought a 360 after I bought a PS3. It wasn't because I was bored of my PS3 or anything, far from it. But the perfect opportunity came for me to buy my friend's 360 along with Halo 3 and Mass Effect so I went for it.

I bought them at the same time.

I grabbed the 360 first. However, the cashier scanned the PS3 first, but I had the Xbox360 back in my cart first. I pulled out the Xbox360 from the car first. I set up the PS3 first. Then I set up the Xbox360 and turned it on. And then I turned on the Ps3. It was a glorious day.

So, I technically got them at the same time.

Yay!

Have a PS3, currently considering a 360...

I can either get a bunch of ps3 games this holiday season, or a 360 with practically no games. Suprised to find that its a difficult desicion...

I sold my Ps3 and bought a 360, the Ps3 couldn't even manage to keep me enterained for longer than a month but I've had my 360 for about 6 months and I'm just now getting bored of it and bored of gaming in general.

I bought a 360 after the PS3. I bought it for 2 reasons. 1. My friends have it and if I wanna play with them I gatta get a 360 and 2. Some of the exclusives. I use my PS3 mainly for gaming. My wii is collecting dust though.

Bought my PS3 when the 60gb's dropped to $499, and I bought my 360 on the 5th when the arcade dropped to $199. Got a decalgirl sticker on it and everything.

I bought a PS3 at launch and bought a 360 when Bioshock was released. I own less than 5 PS3 games, but close to 20 games for the 360.

Nice, balanced poll you got there. Good job. Cookie for you!

Also, I only have a PS3, not really considering getting a 360 currently. Not until MS actually fixes RROD and drops/cuts the price for online (i don't see why i should have to pay to play with friends. preposterous IMO)

I got a PS3 in January 2007 and I've been happy with it so far. I'm considering getting a 360 in 2009. Still haven't decided if I feel like paying for XBL yet.

360, then the wii, then the PS3. 360 gets the most play, the other two are played about evenly i guess.

Bought a 360 after my ps3, played Gears up to Chapter 4 ejected game and returned the system to the store all with in 7 days. Currently have no regrets on not being able to play Gears2 or not having a 360.

You need more pole answers cause there isn't one for my situation.

I had a PS3 since launch. Bought a 360 because Dell had the Elite for $299. Who could resist?

IF a multiplat comes out, and the PS3 version isn't broken I get it for that. I like the controller better and it's much quieter. Anyone who says the 360 is loud is probably misleading you.

I liked Gears and Mass Effect. Crackdown didn't do it for me, maybe I'll give it another shot. Halo 3 absolutely bored me so I sent that back. Kameo and Tales meh. I'm looking through exclusives to turn on my 360. Been playing SW:TFU and Mercs 2 lately on my ps3/

I have a 360. I'm thinking about buying a PS3, but it will probably only be after this gen is over. Planning on exploring this gen to its fullest (getting all the Wii and 360 games I want, getting the DS and PSP, etc.) Still not 100% convinced about getting a PS3, but it is becoming more and more likely, especially with LBP.

How was your time with the ps3 shorter? I had a 360 for 7 days you had a ps3 for 2 weeks lol. And really once I figured out It couldn't use my hdmi cable with optical audio cable It really could've went back then. But I did give Gears a chance and even Halo3 a chance.

because i know quite a few people who have bought ps3 after buying 360 but am just curious to know to know if anybody would want to buy a 360 afterwardspsp_bwoy

Well, now that the price is so cheap, I'm sure there are PS3 and Wii owners who would love to get their hands on an XBox 360 so they can play games like Gears of War 2, Tales of Vesperia, Fable 2, Banjo 3, Left 4 Dead and The Last Remnant this holiday season. I got my PS3 after I got my XBox 360 at launch. I didn't pay full price for my 60GB PS3. If you can get a 60GB PS3 with a DS3 and a game for under $400, I think it's a good deal.

My PS3 has been sitting in the trunk of my car for the past 3 weeks though. I'm waiting for LBP, Resistance 2 and Motorstorm to come out so I have something good to play. I play my 360 religiously every week. Haven't touched my Wii in awhile either.

Currently playing NBA 2K8, Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Tiger Woods 09.

I'm betting that more people bought a PS3 after 360 than vice versa...mainly because RRoD frustration.

Got my Xbox 360 used in 2006. Then bought the PS3 with the MGS4 bundle. Then Xbox 360 got rrd and sent to MS. Thank God Grand Theft Auto was Multiplat. 360 came back 3 wks later, I got a nice new Falcon Chip 360 to sit next to my PS3. Now I also have the darnest time trying to decide which system to buy new games for!!:D
