Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Who's sticking with the 360 only this gen?

360 is all I need. Well, actually I need a blu-ray player as well, but I am waiting for stand alones to drop down I guess.

I never had more than 1 console per gen, so I'll probably be a 360 only user

Same but for Wii.

Well that's bad for you seeing as how you'll be missing out on LOTS of stuff just to prove a point? I'll reiterate: That sucks for YOU AND ONLY YOU. Being an owner of all 3 myself, I'll have the pleasure of enjoying EVERYTHING from this gen while you may enjoy maybe 30 - 35% of it and that makes you happy? Well whatever floats your boat but seriously man, unless you truly can't afford them (no offense meant), you should give PS3 and Wii a serious try.

 

And if someone can only afford one console?  Not everyone's parents can afford to support their kids every whim.

 

I know. That's why I told him if he can't afford it I was understanding of that, but if he was just saying I won't buy it cuz it sucks, well yea he's entitled to his opinion but I would just STRONGLY disagree.

 

 I understand your point dude, but go to your local gamestop and check out the library dude. It's starting the mirror the old PS2 library.  Where I live I have 3 gamestops that I go to and the Xbox 360 section nearly has its own wall, just like the PS2 did and the PS3 and the Wii still have a small wall. This economy is causing most people who own systems to think more about their wallets. Luckily for me I haven't purchased a videogame since february and have been saving for a PS3. Whether I like it or not i'm still going to have to pay $600 just to enjoy a couple games with the PS3. MGS4, Killzone 2, and Uncharted for now. Alot of the 3rd party games that used to be exclusive like DMC4, Tekken 6 and FFXIII were the only reason alot of people who used to own PS2's are buying a 360. 1/3 of my friends (and I have alot) are anime addicts and Japanese fanatics and the mass majority of those bought 360's instead of the PS3 which blew me away. I thought they would be pro Sony but Microsoft is making it harder because they are giving a cheaper route to HD gaming with the same games plus exclusives. My friend angie bought a 360 two weeks ago (before the market meltdown) and shes raving about Eternal Sonata. She told me shes pinching her pennies now. I literally only know 2 people who have who have the PS3 out of a bunch of people who are now penny pinchers and I know about 20 people who have the Wii and a little bit less who have the 360. The dude who has the PS3 barely plays it because he's in the airforce now and his little brother is in my university so he can barely afford games. The other friend who has the PS3 has all of the systems and is pretty spoiled by his parents.



360 only for me

People sticking only to the 360 will be missing out on a lot of good exclusives from the PS3. MGS4 ftw. (so is Gears of War 2, of course).



Currently playing on PS3: God of War III

Currently playing on Xbox360: Final Fantasy XIII

Currently playing on NDS: Chrono Trigger

Not me, PS3 only.



I'll be sticking with the 360 this gen. My parents went on a wii spree and bought 5 wii's for friends and family but after I played for a few days it quickly lost it's appeal.



I will, I rarely play the Wii and with the world economy going to hell I'll probably try and save more rather than spend $300+ on another gaming system.

I'm a Ps3 owner this gen.,......I definetely don' want a 360 unles SO4 is really exclusive for more than like 12 months or something

but I'm very happy with PS3....it has all the games I want...

 

 I think the question was to 360 only owner and this is in the microsoft forum so why did you post this....

 

Back on topic the only reason that ill be buying a PS3 this gen is when the price lowers a hella i mean i want to play god of war 3 and a few other but im not willing to spend 400$ for those few games when my 360 has practicly everything on it.
