Hey everyone!I currently have a ps3 and like the new games they things they have coming out(all these trophies,R2,LBP,KZ2,etc). I don't really know anyone in real life that has a ps3.But i have roughly 20 friends that have Xbox 360's,xbl,and like my same genres of games(RPG's,FPS above all,and sports games).Now I've been thinking about switching to Xbox 360 since sadly my parents won't allow me to have both.I like their eclusives, and IMO XBL is by far way better than psn in user interface and just quality features but that's my opinion.So I just wanted you guys' input on the situation.

Keep your ps3 regardless of your Friends.

Get an xbox 360 in that case

Trading off one console for another is never a good idea. In the long run, you are doing yourself alot more good if you buy the second console.

To be perfectly honest, I think you should stick with your PS3. It's really improved by leaps and bounds lately, and it looks set to have an amazing year next year too. I imagine in time, you'll see a lot more of your friends picking one up.

Sides, you say you enjoy it already, and if you really do, there's no reason to switch over to the 360, as a damn good majority of it's titles are multiplat with the PS3 anyway.

Trading consoles is never a good idea. With that said, I get a lot more mileage out of my 360 than PS3.

I am a huge fan of PS3. I actually had an Xbox 360 and sold it.. with that said... If  my real life friends all had another console that I didn't have and they all had fun on it I would want to be having fun with them to. I think you should get the 360 if you play the same type of games as them and its an option.

Keep your PS3, selling your console loses you an immense amount of money. However I do prefer the Xbox 360 to the PS3.

Sounds more like your too young, or not trusted enough, to make your own choices. Not saying that as an insult, but respect doesn't seem to be the cause.

Only sell your PS3 if you can make profit.

I'd do the swap. Playing with a group of friends online is a LOT of fun.

If that's the case then make the swap. It seems like you really want a 360 more than the PS3 and you would benefit more since you won't be selling it for a loss.

I agree, the 360 is great, but if you can avoid it at all, try not to trade in your PS3.
