Make sure the PS3 doesn't have a yellow light.

If you like its games, then sure. Go ahead. But if you like your xbox 360's games, then keep that.

Why would he buy it, THEN ask you if you want to swap? So does he want the PS3 or what? This is a little strange.

That's what I was thinking. If he wanted a 360 so bad why didn't he just buy one to begin with? Fishy Story....

Lulz. Ask him can you test it first. If it works ok and you like the games and you want it, then maybe. But I prefer the 360 IMO considering my favourite games are 360 exclusives, and other games I love that are multiplatform perform better on 360.

yeah guess u got a good point. I want to test it out since he's buying it from a friend. Also, I plan on buying a decent pc by atleast next year or a little later lol. A Good PC/Ps3 should get the job done.

Refurbished 360's are usually in bad condition. My 360 is in solid condition so it kind of makes sense. I'm just taking my PS3 with me to college whenever needed. I still might play his 360 lol.

Which seems to keep being downgraded week on week out. It may be good in a year or so, but right now the more revealed about it the less there seems to be excited about.

..

On Topic you story seems very odd, being that a purchase to swap is a little bit off. Guess it would depend on the games you want to play, but since its your brothers and you can switch ad hoc I really dont see any of this as a problem, between the two of you you have all your bases covered.

Depends on how many games you will no longer be able to play. If you have a large collection I'd say probably not.

I don't think he should be paying 250 for a used ps3 when they're 300 new. So, you should try to make him bargain. But, since he wants a one to one swap, I guess it doesn't really affect you.

it would be great to own a ps3 these days with all the great exclusives you can pick up in bargin bins for dirt cheap.. if you live in the same house as your cant you just lend him your 360 and vice versa? id rather do that you should share each others systems so you get to play more games!
