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??

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

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).
