    [PS3] My Crisis..

    After switching from Xbox 360 to PS3 last year I have really started missing having an Xbox lately. While I could just go out and buy an Xbox, I can't find a reason to own both (unless I got one on the cheap).

    I have invested a lot into my PS3 as well. I would miss The Show and Gran Turismo a lot. But all my friends are on Live, and Live is much much better than PSN.

    I'm just really stuck. I could sell everything but it would be a huge pain in the ass. I really wish I would have just bought an Arcade when they were really cheap. Maybe Black Friday will bring the deals?

    Suggestions?

    Trade in your PS3, then realize 6 months later how dumb that decision was.

    Edit: And get new friends that don't suck balls

        I actually traded in my xbox for a PS3 and 3 weeks later traded back. The PS3 online community is turrble. I see absolutely no positives of that system at all, besides like 3 games.

          I have both. That's what you should do.

          Save some money, and go get the $399 250 gig.

            I got the urge today to buy a PS3. I have to start my job in January so I can go out and buy one. Might as well have both

              I had a ps3 then traded it in for the new xbox 360, haven't looked back since. The layout and online makeup of the xbox is so much better.

                You guys don't have to tell me how much better Live is than PSN. Believe me, I know...

                  If you want to play with your buddies, get an XBox and sell your PS3.

                  The only reason you wouldn't is either you bought expensive DLC or you have digital copies of movies on your PS3.

                  If that's not the case, then you don't need VSNs help to make this decision.

                    But deals on consoles...maybe not. The new slim arcade version is $200. And the benefit of both...well you pretty much said it. Friends on 360, and all the console exclusives the PS3 offers. Best of both worlds.

                      I've taken the first step guys. I posted my Playstation Move stuff on Ebay.

                        wait, wait, wait. You bought PS Move? :smug2: You probably could have gotten a used 360.

                          If you want to play with your friends, and can not afford to own both, the decision is a no brainer.

                          I wouldn't expect the price on the 360 to be dropped much on BF, more likely you'll get some kind of gift card or added games/accessories with your purchase.

                            Well I just put in an order for this bundle on Microsoft's website

                            Shop the latest Microsoft Store online sales and deals at a great price! Get more of what you want for less with discounts on Surface, laptops, computers, PCs, Xbox, Gaming, software, and more.


                            It's for a new 4GB console, an extra wireless controller, a 12 month Live card, and 4000 MS points for $249. But now I just got an email saying the system is on backorder. Who knows how long it will take, and since I'm a very impatient person I can't have this bs.

                            You guys think a place like Walmart or Target would price match this?

                              Not entirely sure, but stores usually price match from websites if they have actual stores in the area.
