So I'm thinking about switching to PS3

For those of you who missed it, xbox really pissed me off today. For those who missed it, here's my rant: http://www.virtualsportsnetwork.com/forum/showpost.php?p=626060&postcount=138

Anyways for me the PS3 has a lot of advantages:
*obvious stuff like, wireless connection, blueray and free online play.
*Most of my friends now use PS3's instead of XBOX's
*MLB the show 2010
*I don't play Halo, and Bioshock isn't an exclusive anymore, so there's no XBOX only games that I want.
*Batman: Arkham Asylum has exclusive PS3 content.

The problem is, I'm on a college budget, so I would have to make $400 trading in my 360 with a 20 GB hard drive and 10 games. Can I expect this to happen? Can I expect a price drop on the PS3 anytime soon?
 
U arent gonna get $400 from that, but however you get to your goal you will not regret it.

You could probably get $400 on ebay for it. But if you dont wanna sell it on ebay then go to gamecrazy if there are any near. They give you much more than gamestop.

I don't have any issues with PS3. As a matter of fact I have less problems with PS3 online than 360. NXE sucks my dick.

Are you fucking serious? People barely use bluray?!? Really?

You are definitely in the minority with not one, but two broken PS3's.


Honestly Goblin it's best two have both consoles but if you can only have one I definitely recommend PS3.

:joker:

That is serious fanboyism.

The problem with eBay is that anyone can get a brand new 360 for what 200 bucks. Also who would pay 200 extra bucks for some games. Some of which they may not even want.

Not knocking KNUBB, but I have no idea where he got those numbers from.

I traded in some of this shit so I'll let you know.

WaW is still going for about 35-40.. don't ask why. Madden 08, bout $2. Same with NCAA. GTA is going for 15. CoD4 going for 20-25.

That's all I know for now. There's a list somewhere, I'll dig it up for you.
 
With free online play, included wi-fi, and an included controller charger, my PS3 has practically paid for itself by now. I've had it for 2 years now, so that's close to $200-250 in savings compared to what I would spend with a 360 (assuming I buy a controller charger for 360. The number would be a lot higher if I bought batteries all this time).

Not to mention a blu-ray player costs $200+ by itself. I don't use the blu-ray at all, but if that's the future of movies, I'm already prepared.

From a financial standpoint - if you really look at it - the PS3 is a far better investment. If you look at the money I've saved since I bought it, I basically bought my PS3 for $150. And that number's going to continue to go down the longer I have it since online is free.
 
I wouldn't expect a price drop until the Fall. They are now supposedly making about $130 bucks per console they sell at $400, meaning that a price drop probably won't be too far off.

how is it fanboyism when i had PS3 1st. durrrrrr dumbass

You seriously said no one uses blu-ray(That is one dumbass statement)
PS3 Online sucks(It's fucking free and it doesn't break....2 points in favor of Sony)
So when you in here making dumbass statements better come with some truth or

:gtfo:

As far as those numbers go. Those came from Gamestop's computer. I was assuming that is where you planned on trading it all in.

PS3 online is fine. It's hard to justify it being good to an xbox user though who pays for their online service. If I was paying for something, I'd be stubborn to think that something that was free was just as good.

Blu-Ray technology is integrated into some PS3 titles. i.e. Metal Gear Solid 4, etc. It's not just for movies.
