I've been highly dissapointed with my 360, traded it in to go part-way for a Wii, may get a PS3 also. I just found the 360 to be lacking in terms of exclusives and the online was terrible (not in that way! All the sweary teenagers for around £40 a year? Dream on!). Unless you LOVE FPS' then I'd reccomend getting a PS3 and keeping your Wii (to cover Wii exclusives and multiplat games) and forget about the 360. The PS3 is MUCH better, Move is looking better than Kinect, the games are better, the online is free, exclusives are looking good, price is coming down etc. 

IF you are COMMITED on getting a 360, then wait until the new year and DON'T TRADE IN YOUR WII!!!

I've done it and regretted it greatly. It's not worth it. Trust me.

 

Hope that helps :)

If you actually read the OP you would know he already has a PS3 and he most likely won't be trading in his Wii.



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

Nice sales pitch.  Unfortunately your just like most salesmen.  You never listen or find anything out about your potential target audience before you open your mouth.  He owns a PS3 and he simply wants another console.  Jeez guys get over your anti 360 shit already.....  At the very least read what the poster says before you open your mouths.

I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

I read the OP. I didn't know he had a PS3, granted, but he was considering selling his Wii. I just steered him away from this idea whilst also giving my point of view. In the end though, it's up to him.

This.

Hey! I had over 25 games for my 360, and it wasn't for me. I saw what he said and gave my view. Admittadly I should have read in more depth, I saw the fact he was talking about getting a 360 and weighed up the advantages and disadvantages of the 3. I shall say it was my fault for not going in-depth enough into his first post, yes, but it doesn't change my point. Well, aside from the fact that he doesn't need a second PS3 :)

No, they're waiting for money so they can make more.
