Have fun. But why decide to play a console because your friends play it. I think it's a big mistake. Save up for a 360. I just hope you don't RROD first week :P Actually I hope you do :P So you can see what you are sacrificing :P j/k Oh Well, Your choice - crowd follower :P

i too think its a big mistake.

A. He has already owned a 360 and has already got rid of it.
B. The way he talks about each system shows he likes the Ps3 better.
C. Playing with your friends is only a bonus if you like what your playing (goes with B)
D. Peer pressure is a stupid reason to do anything. (Being nagged to do something is not the only form of peer pressure)
E. He plans on buying another Ps3.... why not just keep the Ps3 and buy a 360.
F. This deal looks fishy (Like many have pointed out)
G. Judging by his sig he wants a lot of games that are Ps3 exclusive this year.
H. Judging by his previous posting history he isn't into upcoming 360 games.
I. Time and time again he complains of not being able to pay for games and having to save up for months to get one... How does he plan on paying for online?

Honestly I've never talked anyone out of buying a console (Just the other day I talked someone into buying a 360 with the HDD instead of the core system. He was buying it for Guitar Hero. He wanted to go cheap. I told him about the Wii version even), but with the reasons I posted above I believe its a bad decision in this particular case.

@Fila - or something?

The logical explanation is its a hacked 360 and the games are just on dvd+r, making them worth a $1 each.
I would guess the 360 has RRoD'd at some point so the seller wants rid so he can buy an elite, as many are doing.

I bought a 360 the other week with 20 games (yes, bootlegs which I didn't want) which was RRoDing, fixed it and went out to the shops and got Katamari and DMC4, As that's all I wanted the machine for.

Even if they are legit games, most of them are dire and I'd swap them all for 1 MGS game.

Oh and about the warranty, If the user has registered the 360 you will need to inform MS that the machine is changing hands. They will only deal with the person who the 360 is registered to in the unlikely event it breaks down :)

Ask the seller :

The manufacture date off the back of the machine.

If it has been retured to MS for any reason.

If its been hacked.

If the games are bootlegs.

If he can sort out the registatration with MS.

If its been banned off live.

Ask yourself :

If you really want to own Saints Row.

 The idea is not bad. It just sounds to good to be true. Be careful or better sell your PS3 and buy new 360. New models are 10 times more good then the old ones. Much more lower chance of RROD and are more quiet. Check the manifactured date. If it's after October 2007 - take it. Make sure the warranty seal isn't broken.

 im saying he's gonna get robbed

thats what I thought you were saying, but i think you missed a word it was confusing.

@bbsin - see number G, but if you want to make MGS its own category thats fine with me.

lol,very smart move from you,
just one thing wait until mgs 4 comes out and then buy it if you want to.
