Just know that it's the HD equivalent of Wii party games. Fruit Ninja, Kinect Adventures, Dance Central, and a few others are insanely fun but not the kind of games that appeal to the "hardcore". It works very well, in my opinion, but not perfectly. If this interests you, go for it. If not, stay with the PS3. 2nd. is live worth it? and how much different is it from psn I'd say a couple of years ago, Live would be worth it. It still is worth it, for me. The PSN has offered most of Live's major features over the years. There isn't that much of a difference, these days. I love Live and prefer it over PSN, BY FAR, but when it comes to convincing someone, I just can't do it. 3rd. is gears and halo good? [my main reasons that i want the system] They're awesome. I replayed Gears 1 about two weeks ago, and I still love it. The old games are still great. Gears is my favorite new series of the generation. Halo 3 really blew me away at the time. Haven't played in a while, though. Halo REach failed to live up to the hype, for me. I haven't played either online, though. From what I understand, that's where they really shine. i really need to know from personal experiences is it worth it or am i to late. |
You may be too late. There's a ton of great games that are only on the 360 but they tend to be a year old or older. A lot of the fun comes from the great online community and, after the initial rush winds down, it's hard to say how active that community still is. I love my 360 waaaaaay more than my PS3 but it earned my love over the years. With you coming in so late in the generation and already owning a PS3, I just can't sell you on the Xbox 360. If you have some money to burn, go for it. Just don't expect a drastically different experience. It's like me telling you to buy another car in addition to the car you already own. It may be a better car but it's still just a car.
