Hey guys.This is my 1st post in the 360 forum.Anyway i have a question to ask you.

Gonna try to keep it as short as posable.

So I just got some extra cash and I started thinking what should I do with it.I've had a PS3 for about 8 months now and I'm happy with it and all but there are few 360 exclusives I'd really like to play.Do you guys think its worth getteting a 360 just for a few games and more importantly do you think that once i have the console i will find much more things to do/play on it?

You 'might' find some other games that might interest you, but you should probably save your money and stick with your PS3 as it is going to be 'overwhelmed' with it's exclusives in the coming months. And no I do not own a PS3, just a 360 and a DS lite. But this is just my two cents.

How many 360 games do you want? If it's at least 5 currently out and a few more in the future I'd say go for it. Perhaps wait fo the holidays for a price cut or new bundle though.

I say do it. I was a primarily 360 owner until October of last year where I was in the same situation as you and bought a PS3 due to wanting to play games like Little Big Planet, etc. You'll be able to see both strong points on each system and go into the System Wars forum and laugh at the people that take their love for once system so seriously.

It's worth having a xbox 360 as then you have both of the best consoles on themarketand you will be able to play all exclusives, xbox have some good upcoming exclusives so you'll be able to play both your ps3 exclusives and xbox exclusives.

Only you can answer that question. I was in the same situation regarding the PS3. I wanted it but there was only two games on it I wanted, Resistance and Motorstorm. This was close to the PS3 launch (May 2007) so the line-up of games was pretty poor. Anyway, I decided to buy a PS3 even though it was 425GBP, just so I could play Resistance and Motorstorm. Most people reading this probably think I'm crazy. Maybe I am. On the plus side though, because it's a launch model, it's backward compatible with PS2 games. When you own more than one console there's always one you play more than the others. I use my 360 the most. I only get exclusives for the PS3, Wii and PC. Do I think it's worth buying these machines just so I can play their exclusives? Hell yeah I do. IMO Crysis, Mario Galaxy and MGS4 alone justify the purchase of the hardware. Everyone's different though. Depends how much money you have and how willing you are to part with it

I have both but the only way i would consider the xbox is for the online. I prefer the online on 360 over the ps3 online.

Id say wait a few months.Think about it some more dont jump to purchasing right away. I had that same dilemma but with playstation and i decided not to get one after all.Also Ive upgraded my PC numerous times just ot play PC exclusives or games that came out earlier for PCs and Ive come to regret it sometimes.

Thanks for all the replays guys.After reading them all I think that most likely I'll be getting the "360 elite" in a couple of days.Still have some time to think it through tho so more advices are welcome. :)

Why are you asking it here? Ask it on the PS3 forum.

Hmm well I only think it's worth it if you are going to get Xbox Live - I haven't got it so I'm pretty much bored with the 360, and I don't see why you would pay for live when you got a PS3 anyway.

Haha why are all the ps3 fanboys coming in here and telling you not to get a 360. He didn't ask you on the ps3 forums because he knew what you guys would say. but like i said if you don't play online don't get a 360 in my opinioin the ps3 is so much better offline but online it's the complete oposite.
