Not a chance. Microsoft will be demolishing Sony pretty soon. Especially after Final Fantasy and Resident Evil franchises are coming to the 360. PS3 has only a few exclusive titles that are even worth mentioning as opposed to Microsoft's list of awesome exclusive games.

Gears 2, Fable 2, Banjo, Alan Wake and more! No I do not regret buying my 360 and this thread is useless. If you prefer the games on ps3 then you should have bought that, research before you buy.

Well, I certainly didnt. I am a fan of its exclusives and I love its online capabilities. Its a console for gamers. But thats my opinion. :)

Yeah, if I could go back I'd get a PS3, but I'm still happy with it.

Nope, best console with the best exclusives and the best online capability.

I also don't regret buying my PS3 as it has some games worth looking at coming out, but it has been slow the last two years.

Wii = biggest regret of my life.

Personally I would rather own a Wii.

But at least for right now, it seems as though the Xbox 360 is the console to own for good RPGS.

I guess none of the people above had experienced RRoD... I hope you're able to still say the same when that happens.

Only thing I regret about buying a 360, is that it meant I couldn't buy a *new* 60GB ps3... nowadays it seems that trying to find such a thing even on eBay is basically either a thing of non-existence, or just asking for price gouging. Other than that, my 360 has been fantastic, and makes me wish I didn't have to still keep a PlayStation around.

No actually i'm very thankful i bought it. I was waiting for a PS3 but when i got sick of waiting i went and bought a 360. and thank God i did. If i bought a PS3 i would still be waiting for a good game. Except MGS4 but that is only fun for story and only lasts so long.

I regret it, but I don't regret it because I want a PS3. This gen has me bummed as a gamer. I used to really enjoy most of the games that I purchased. I had never purchased a game that i'd personally say was bad. I had some mediocre ones but that was rare. Most games were like ultimate fun.

This gen, i've purcahsed more games that i've owned on any two prior consoles combined. I still pick games using the same metrics and methods... but out of my 14 games i'd say that only maybe 3 of them are worth their retail price (Mass Effect and Lost Odyssey). about 5 are ok if you can get them for $30 or less and the rest are just flat out bad or are so crappy that I can't really think of a price point where the game is a good purchase.

And most of my games are Metacritic at the AA or higher range so I really feel like i'm a fish out of water.

I just regret buying one of the launch models. It doesn't have the RRoD, but sometimes barley even reads discs, freezes a lot, and the disc tray will even get stuck if there's no game in it.

Yeah, I remember you man... I wondered when you've been, but I think I know now :P

And I know there are fixes for the RRoD but it's annoying to have it really often.

Of course I hate it with a passion as well but if you are willing to dish out a bit of cash go to circuit city for their "special" warranty :P.

:? Yes I do regret it. Not only because I bought a 360 less than a month before the price drop, but because I would have much rather had a PS3. I am more interested in the games that they have than the ones that the 360 has (expecially Heavenly Sword and Folklore). HD DVD has lost the next generation war to BluRay, so that's another reason I want to get a PS3 instead. Unfortunatley, the PS3 is uber expensive, and I am not a rich kid. Hopefully I will be trading my 360 for a PS3 once the price drops to something more reasonable. Until then I'm stuck with the 360

Trust me Zacattack214 Heavenly sword is the female version of God of War and is good but very short and folklore will make you move around the rumble remote so much it will hurt...seriously :P.

I Have no regrets with my 360...I got the elite an its the best thing i ever invested on...Although I've had a string of bad luck with the controllers and rechargable battery packs...The headset doesnt work on one controller for some reason and and a battery pack wont hold a charge anymore..this was after only 3months of use..I got a new one so we'll see how long this one holds for..and my other controller's right bumper gets stuck or jams when you push on it...(This sucks when ur playing gears of war)..Aside from these problems..everything else is perfect...

yeah a little, Ps3 can do more... Plus SOCOM is by far the best online shooting game series ever and im sure the new one won't disappoint. I got my 360 because of Halo 3 and that sucked... so I wish i would have waited for MGS4, Plus the game I play now is COD4 which is on PS3 so I would have had nothing to lose, I may still get a ps3, but I do regret having an Xbox and I really don't care about Xbox live being better than PSN because I had both Xbox and pS2 back in that day and played online on both and didn't mind the PS online stuff. I wish I would have waited for MGs4, I mean there is no dying the xbox is good but as an xbox owner I think the ps3 is about to start doing a lot better now that they really are getting better at making games on it, and you can say whatever you want but the ps3 is going to start doing better regardless of what fanboys say or do, another reason i bought a 360 is because i thought mGS4 was coming out on it had i known back then I would have definitely not bought on, and again my only reason was halo 3 and that was very very very disappointing

The 360 hands-down has the funnest games of this generation. I absolutely love playing mine. The only thing that gets on my nerves is the shoddy hardware. My original got the RROD and the replacement they sent just a few months ago is already starting to freeze up every now and then. :x

I agree with you but I think the ps3 is catching up in that sense so yeah
