Forums - Microsoft - How many ppl r trading their 360 for a ps3 slim or buyin it ?

I'd never trade it any of my systems, and there's too many games coming out for the 360 and Wii in the near future to warrant a purchase of the PS3 slim which basically has the same library as the 360 coming out minus GoW3 and Uncharted 2, neither of which I really care about.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

a few of my friends are doing this, but mostly just buying a ps3 to go along with their 360s.

well, ppl like their games on one disc, console reliability, free online and GT5 AND god of war

The one disc argument is not valid.  We've been playing games on multiple discs for a decade or more.

 

I will give the PS3 for its reliablility, but at least Microsoft gave the system a 3 year warranty to help out.

 

Free Online - Nice.  But it's not as decent as Xbox LIVE.  Many games on the PS3 have had a rocky online experience, including fat princess.  Just because it's free doesn't mean it's quality. 

 

GT5 = Forza series

 

God of War is an amazing game.  But it's only one game.  Microsoft has quite a few awesome games too.  Gears of War, Fable to list a couple.

 

These arguments of your are not well thought out.

It will happen, but there wont be floods of people doing this! At GAME or gamestation (can't remember) today they had a trade in sign saying trade in xbox 360, and then whatever model it was, and how much it took off the price of the slim, I only know of one friend who is doing this, and that's because he has an elite and the arcade

@macroplanet. Forza 3 does not equal GT5. You could have said the exclusive dlc for MW2 and ODST Are a plus, including Natal

And you know this because you've played both?  Because your dad works for Microsoft and you've played it?

 

Forza 3 and GT5 both look like great games, on par with each other.  I will say though that GT has been going down hill since the 3rd installment.  Loved the first 2.

Wow, well I guess ur reason being it called the "definitive racing" game of this generation and does ur dad work for Polyphony digital?



Definitive Racing = Marketing.

And yes, it is a great simulator racing game and so is Forza.
