I can't think of a reason not to trade in my Xbox for a PS3...

Seriously. I'm not looking foward to Gears of War 2 since I didn't like the first one. Fable 2 is sure to dissapoint since it's a Peter Molyenux game. Too Human looks really bad in my opinion. Call of Duty 4 is on the PS3 with WAY less little squeeky voices. GTA 4 is on there too, with little to no graphical pop-up. I don't really play Halo anymore (not that good of a game, in my opinion). Guitar Hero is on the PS3.

Plus, on top of that all of my friends have a PS3, and the one I have left is seriously considering switching

Please tell why I should keep my Xbox! I'm only looking to Banjo-Kazzoie, and that's not enough to keep it!

Why trade in your 360? You won't get that much for it. You could just save up that extra money to get a PS3 and then you would have both.

By the way another game that is coming exclusively to the 360 is Ninja Gaiden 2. I don't know if you are into that kind of game though.

First off most of Lionhead studio's second games are better than the first... They have the stuff the first game should have and sometimes more.

Second if you don't like Gears go look at some other shooter.... i mean what there are going be another 30 this year too.... As long as they are any Hour of Victory games.

Third, stop looking at the super hyped titles only because you will pass up on some amazing games. Do you remember Beyond G&E, Psychonauts, hell Viva Pinata. VP is probably the most overlooked game on the 360 because it look "childish" and because all those 9 yr old kids want to play more "mature" games because they will be cooler or something.....

Fourth, if anything, sell your 360 on Ebay because trade ins are pretty much worthless...

And last.... how long do you own your consoles? If a console has one year that doesn't excite you do you honestly just sell it?

If you feel like having every highly anticipated game pushed from year to year than go ahead, if not just go play 360 and be happy.

Well, all your friends have the PS3 so see which games on that you might like. Try them before switching.

Close the door on the way out.

Ugh, why can't people just decided for themselves ( even though I always ask about games :lol: )
Anyhoo, personally, I wouldn't trade in a console for any other console because I see it as a waste of time and money. If your really want to a PS3, go save up for one.

Looking at your collection of games, you've barely played anything

Yeah, God forbid you actually have a mind for yourself and do something you want to do as opposed to following suit with your friends. Yeah, that's a valid reason to switch consoles. :roll:

Apparently, you hold much disdain for the 360 and that is clearly evident. I would definitely recommend you sell your console and all it's counterparts and make your way over to the PS3.

The 360 has almost three times as many games on it than the PS3....so if you could not find something to play that you enjoyed on the 360 then the odd's are likely you will not find anything on the PS3 either.

I think asking why you shouldn't give up your 360 on the 360 board is rather silly... most often you're going to get fanboy replies. Honestly, and this is coming from someone who owns a 360, it's just a piece of hardware that plays video games. The differences between this and a PS3 are all based on your opinions. If you don't like the exclusives on 360, then maybe you should switch idk... and don't pay attention to graphics and stuff it's gameplay over graphics anyday. The whole friend issue is another reason in your case, and I think if you really just want to play games with your friends online then maybe you should switch. It's completely your choice though, do as you wish, but don't let petty little things decide for you, it all comes down to where you think you'll have more fun.

GTA IV DLC? Ninja Gaiden 2? Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise? Left 4 Dead? We're not even at E3 yet, and the horizon is already bright.

Actually, I'm on the same boat as you. I'm a PC gamer also, so all the microsoft exclusives (Bioshock, Mass Effect, Gears of War, Halo) are still available to me. I really want a blu-ray player, and MGS4, but it's my friends that keep me on the Xbox, because we all play LIVE together. If there's nothing holding you to Xbox, by all means get a PS3, you shouldn't be sworn to fanboyism, but to your own hardware desires. Don't let people here tell you what console to buy.
