You bought a $500 console just to play FFXIII, makes no sense.

Especially since he's not a "hardcore" FF fan. Missing out on Versus and 14 is gonna burn.

Although I absolutely love and enjoy my 360, I've been recently wising I had gotten a PS3, with some really neat new IPs that have been announced recently. Ah well...



 

Enjoy

I personally wouldn't have, but my brother would have. He owns the 360, but he wants to trade it in for a PS3 (that would be the third one in our house), I personally don't want him to, as I do enjoy playing the 360 from time to time - and I wouldn't want him using my disks, as he puts 'em in the wrong cases, and stuff, which I'm anal about.

E3 2008...would never have gotten a ps3 if I knew.

And then E3 2009 happened and you realised that the PS3 has 3 times as many Final Fantasy games as the 360 right?

Im not a ''harcore'' FF fan, I couldn't care less about FF14 online even if it came to 360 (just like pretty much everyone else). I just wanted the next main FF, FF13. So I quickly sold my ps3 after it was announced for 360.

I'm sorry, but if you only bought the PS3 for FFXIII you were pretty stupid for buying it early as it has already had price drops and the game still isn't out. By the time FFXIII hits shelves you'll probably be able to pick the system up for $300 or less with a good sale.

Now why would you assume that? Ps3 was the cheapest blu-ray player for a while remember? IAfter E3 and after we got a laptop with built in blu-ray there was no reason for me to have a ps3 so I sold it.

I feel sorry for people who can't read, so I'm just gonna quote myself here in the hope they will read it this time.

Assumptions made about me in this thread:

I'm a hardcore FF fan (false)
I want FF14 (very false)
I want FFvs.13 (true, but it's not worth $400 to me and FFXIII alone isnt either)
I only bought a ps3 for FFXIII (false)
I bought my ps3 early (false)
I paid $500 for my ps3 (false)

LMFAO @ you guys I simply bought my ps3 for FFXIII and blu-ray. When both of those were available in other ways to me I kicked my ps3 out. Sorry if that bothers you.

I read, you just failed to provide any information until after people made assumptions. I can't help it you implied that you only bought it for FFXIII.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I wouldn't of bought the Wii, It wore off on me very soon. I guess it just wasn't for me.
And Im more than happy I bought my PS3 as my system this gen.

No change for me. I'm quite happy with only a Wii.

Wii and DS were basically my only options. The only non-Nintendo platforms i was ever interested in were Sega's, and i only started gaming in 1999, so i didn't have the funds to get the Dreamcast while it lasted, so i would have bought the Nintendo systems anyway

I am more then happy with my console choices.I waited for months for my Wii and got one finally when a friend was able to hold it for me for an hour at her job. I waited to get my DS Lite till thier was enough games I wanted on it. Now, thier is way more out then i can ever buy/play.
