I was really exited to have my 360 last year in july. Since then ive baught 10 games, 2 controllers, and xbox live. I love all the things about xbox, but ive heard everyone saying about theyre xbox 360's failing and other problems.Now im thinking of leaving everything behind and buying a .... Playstation console. There where 3 things keeping me back from buying a ps3. one was the price. its now dropped a bit. second is my xbox live friends. i always love talking to my friends in diffrent states and ill miss that if i get ps3. and third is the exclusive like Halo 3, bioshock and mass effect.

Im going to ask my friend if he wants my 360 with all my stuff for 600 dollars. ill see iff hell buy it and ill get a Ps3. thanks for reading.

Ok, but make sure he can carry on the 3 year warrenty since it will then be second hand. Plus I think $600 is a bit steep.

After reading your post, I think you would regret this move.

Why would you even consider this move?  With so many great games like Halo 3 and Mass Effect around the corner

IMO I think that you should sever sell consoles until after the generation is over.You might never know when a game can release on your system that you like but you sold it last week.

Any one considering this move at this point of the 360's life is an idiot. Sorry, but it had to be said.

I traded in a 360 for a PS3(store credit at Best Buy) after having 2 consoles crash in 6 months and haven't regretted it for a minute. Then again, Halo doesn't do much for me. Bioshock looks okay, but I'll be able to get it for the PC if I so desire. Really, there aren't many exclusives on 360 that have me salivating. There are a number of games I'm really looking forward to on PS3. I don't play online, so that wasn't a factor either.

If there are games you are looking forward to on the 360 then I'd say stick with it until you have played those games. I sold my original Xbox to get a GameCube and have regretted it ever since (I love the GC, I just wish I'd have kept the Xbox). This is coming from someone who only owns one next-gen console - a PS3

This is actually a perfect time to trade in your 360,

Make sure you find someone more deserving then you.

Do what you want man seriously its your money not ours. Personally knowing Halo 3, Mass Effect, and Bioshock are all going to the pc but it will take a couple of years I know I can wait.

You'll regret it as soon as Halo3 comes out.

what a dumb move, I don't really think half these threads are real

if your 360 isn't broke why trade it, thats stupid, and if it does you get it fixed for free

god, does no one have common sense anymore?

why would u even consider that move. u apparently love the 360. With a three year warrenty your set for 3 years from when u bought it last july. So u got about 2 more years left. More than likely if its gonna break its gonna happen in the next 2 years which will be fixed even replaced with a brand new 360. So i wouldnt trade it in, especially if ur enjoying the 360 games and library. Unless the PS3 really made me say OMG i want those games more than these 360 games I wouldnt trade it in.

You will sincerely regret this. Just save up for PS3 if you want it, because 360 has SOOOO many good games coming out soon

Do not do that. Like someone before me said you will regret it when halo 3 comes out. If you have any previous-Gen consoles, and any games you don't play take them to EB games or gamestop. For a 360 you would get like 175 towards the Ps3 but if you trade in 2 previous-gen consoles you can get atleast that. Also if you have 10 games odds are you don't play them all so sell the older ones.

If you're having fun with your console and have plenty of games for it, and you're looking forward to the ones coming out soon, why sell? If your console breaks, it's covered by a warranty, so it won't cost you anything.

I don't see why you'd want to spend more money to deny yourself the games you own and the games that you want.
