Hi all. As you may have guessed I am a big fan of Sony. Having said that I'm also a fan of HD gaming in general.

At the moment I ownly own a PS3 but I was thinking of purchasing a 360 for its exclusive games. I live in Australia and I recently came across a seemingly great deal from ebgames.

This is the link -

edit- The deal includes a 60GB Pro with Gears 1 and 2, Halo 3 and Forza for $457 Australian dollars.

What do you guys think??

if you like the games on it, then do it.

Do it. What do you have to lose?

ive been thinkin the same thing....XBL is so tempting

That's pretty awesome value. But I would also check out the JB Hi-Fi deals, which can be quite awesome.

Once you have it, check out:

- Halo 3
- Mass Effect
- Kameo
- Forza Motorsport 2
- Banjo
- Saints Row (and number 2 if you dont have it for PS3)

All of those games except maybe Halo 3 will be MASSIVELY cheap.

If you have enough money and time, then why not. There are certainly some decent exclusives on Xbox, and while I prefer the PS3 library, there is not really any harm in getting it

I don't know about price, but that bundle is a good idea. Also get Mass Effect and Lost Odyssey

Oh I just realised the bottom deal!!!

For $457 you get a 60GB Pro, TWO gears, Halo 3 AND Forza 2??!?!?!

GET IT!!!

Absolutely do it, that is a great deal. I own all 3 and can say with confidence that my 360 is my favorite console. Just personal opinion and the games I enjoy more is why. I really like my PS3 and have been tearing up Fat Princess recently (love that game). My Wii gets some love too.

Here are a few reasons I love my 360 (IMO):

Largest Library of quality games and biggest back catalog.
Most RPG's of the 3 consoles.
Best Online.
I like 360's controller way more than PS3 (minus the D-Pad).

yes most certainly, i have both consoles and enjoy both!

Yeah that's the one lol. I have just edited the OP.

I'm at work now so the earliest that I could get it is tommorrow afternoon. Damn night shifts lol.
