ahahah I'm sory but...fail. How is telling the guy that he lost money as well as a shitload of good games jelousy? I just don't understand why he wouldn't buy an Arcade console for $200 instead of losing like $400/best games/blu-ray/built in wi-fi/the list goes on.... in the proccess.

I think its funny that everyone is saying he won't be able to play PS2 games anymore...

Apparently PS3 exclusives and Blu Ray have just been thrown out the windows... kind of shows the current state of the PS3.


Well it's a lot harder to argue that the PS3 library is better then the 360's isn't it?

So suddenly everyone has to fall back on the non HD PS2.

Since when did the UK get 60 gis anyway?  I thought they were all 80's and 40's.

Either way... did you trade your games too or what? (If you actually did.)

Wow, I would never trade in a console. I don't get why you wouldn't just save up so you could have both. Especially since you traded the best PS3 model for the worst 360 model. Nonetheless, enjoy.

He could have traded his PS3 with a used Xbox 360 Core from 2005 ^^

 

doesn't that get RROD before you even plug it in?

That was an incredibly unwise move , you could probably buy TWO arcade units if you sold your PS3 used.

Why didn't you just by an arcade alongside your PS3 it's what I would've done THEY ARE DIRT CHEAP and the PS3 hardly depreciates in value except when there's a price cut.

Guess you won't be in on the K2 action next year*sad face*

 Maybe I should have put /jk at the end of my post. Also 'best games' is entirely subjective.

Marketing 101... people will not buy something that they don't want.

Considering that the Arcade only retails for $199, that was easily one of the worst trades imaginable, assuming the 60GB was still working.

Unless you were really strapped for cash, as others have been saying; you should have just bought a 360. They're cheap.

If you're buying old games as someone new to the 360, most of the hits are available used (and often new) for $30 or less.

Never any point in cutting off gaming options (ie selling a console), but have fun with the new platform.

i cnt understand y u traded in.............if u wanted a 360 u shud have jus bought 1 instead.............theres tons of games out on ps3 and even better ones in 2009...........looks like no heavy rain for u then............u have missed out by trading in for 360...............u shud hav jus bought a 360 there will always be great games on both so i cnt see y u did it
