Forums - Microsoft - I'm thinking of giving up on 360 entirely

After my 360 had to be sent for repairs (actually not a RROD, but would freeze up after 5 seconds - which meant I had to pay for the repair), and the other 3 people I knew who had them all had to send theirs in, I started buying all multiplats for the PS3. I've never had a console I've been afraid to use before, but this way I know (well, hope) it'll work when I get the exclusives.

Best of luck on whatever you decide. Lots of great games out there to play.

Newer technology is prone to more failure do to more heat and the complexity of the hardware.  Also power consumption has vastly gone up. That my snes still works theroy doesn;t hold up very well. Open it open and take a look at how simple the design is and big the transistors are. It also gives off no heat and doesn't have a dvd rom on it

decision is made. pay day i take my 360 (while its working) and my games to EB, see the trade value and put that on ps3 with Killzone 2

yes i will reget 360 later on cheap as hell for some games traded in, so i can play alan wake and mass effect 2

but i will NEVER be renewing my xbox live as theres no point at all, Modern Warfare 2 for me will be ps3.

it has NOTHING to do with ms vs sony, i just want to have fun and not pay for live while my system is broken, and not wonder when it'll break anymore.

im also going to wait 1 year to buy new xbox, to see if any issues arrise, unless they make a shadowrun rpg.

end.


when you get ur ps3 add me on psn.

but do get a 360 later on when u got some cash there will always be a game or two to play on it.

Awesome, now lets end this petty whine fest about mean ol' Microsoft and lock the topic. I honestly don't know why its been open this long.
