You've made it quite apparent that you think the 360 has an amazing library in this thread:


I guess you changed you mind. In that case, I say yes, selling your 360 is very smart, and not financially wastefull at all. I'm going to tell you exactly what to do:

Sell your X360 that you've owned for 3 years. Sell all your exclusives, you hate them now anyway. Sell all your multiplats. Forget about achievements. I know it seems like a waste to get rid of all the games, achievements, friends you've built on the 360, but trust me, this is the most appropriate thing to do. You have to think with your heart, not your brain. And your heart is telling you: You must play Heavy Rain by any means necessary.

Next, Buy a PS3. Buy all of those multiplats again. But don't buy any exclusive, because they suck, except for Heavy Rain. You may be thinking, why buy a a PS3 and all those multiplats all over again? I'll tell you why: for Heavy Rain. After all that effort, you must then buy Heavy Rain, complete it, and cherish every moment of your experience. Finally, after all these years, you've finally realised what it's like to be truly happy.

Six hours later, after you've completed Heavy Rain, I want you to come back online and tell me, tell us all.... Was it worth it? If so, then congratulations, you've made an excellent choice.

If not, then you have quite possibly made the least practical financial decision in the history of consumers everywhere. I'm sorry.

post of the year!

Haha agreed.

EPIC FAIL!

I never said i hate my 360 games, if you open your eyes and use your brain then you would clearly see  what i wrote.  :)


I never said you hate your 360 games.If you use your brain, you would clearly see what I wrote. I said you hate your 360 exclusives, which is a reasonable inference considering you said they suck in your OP.

EDIT: After re-reading your OP, it appears you were only referring to Gears when you said "sucks". That's a fail on my part, not an epic fail. Your sentence structure is what I'd call an epic fail.

But I have one question. Why do you say Gears, Halo, L4D, etc suck when you said they were amazing in this thread:

i said gears sucks in my opinion.  why do u think i quote it? use your brain son



I trust no one, not even myself.

Sell your 360 and buy a PS3. Then sell your PS3 and buy a 360 again and you'll make a profit!

Okay, you got me. I'm not too skilled at deciphering broken sentences.

Mr Puggsly on 04 December 2011

Depends how much you care about MS's first party lineup. If you don't enjoy them than there isn't much incentive to sticking with the 360.

I've owned a 360 for years and I bought a PS3 in the past few month to play the exclusives. Unfortunately I'm finding many of the PS3 exclusives to be disappointing.

Heavy Rain is pretty awesome. Its a one of kind.



Crystalchild on 04 December 2011

If Heavy Rain is the only Title you want to play; No. i just played it recently, and finished it in one sitting. BRILLIANT, underselling game.

But those 8 Hours arent enough to give up on your Console.

I'd suggest that - if you are interrested in more than Heavy Rain (u should be, there are some good games on PS3.) - sell some of your 360 games on Ebay, and get a used PS3 at Gamestop. or just save the money until u have enough. but yeah, if you really only want to play HR, rent Console and Game for a Day or Two.



I'm a Foreigner, and as such, i am grateful for everyone pointing out any mistakes in my english posted above - only this way i'll be able to improve. thank you!
