Should i get an Xbox360?

Well currently i celebrated Eid and well i got some money to spare and im not sure what to get. I used to have a 360 3 years ago but it rrod'd on the second day so we gave it back. Then in 2007 on my birthday i got a wii but i beat Re4 and got bored of it. Then i got lucky and traded it in for a 60gb ps3 with 2 controllers and im very satisfied with it. But now since i have a lot of spare cash on me im thinking about getting a xbox360 but im not sure because of the problems with it people say they have with it. Could someone explain what the problems are and what the positives are?Should i get an Xbox360?
yes.just take a quick look at the releases in the next two months. Should i get an Xbox360?
Ya its good, but if you already have a good system, I'd put towards something else, maybe new furniture, vacation or something.

Can't beat the 360 gaming library...so yes get one!

On the first launch consoles, there was a 33% chance of getting it. With the brand new 65nm cpu falcon consoles, the chance is lowered by 23% and is only 10% which is barely anything because the ps3's failure rate is like 4%. The reason you should get a 360 is because it has great games and great online, and all of the games are cheap. For example, GH3 for ps3 is $64. For xbox 360, it is $59. The 360 also has tones of great exclusives, such as gears of war and halo being the main two. If you spend $300 on a brand new Xbox 360 60gb pro console, you will be glad you got it. The brand new ps3's don't even have ps2 backwards compatibility, whereas the xbox 360 has original xbox compatibility which is awesome IMO. Personally I would just sell the ps3 and buy a 360 and bunch of games.
OF COURSE!! i mean i never had problems with mine but hey ps3 it磗 getting a little bit far from the xbox realitythere r great exclusives like halo, gears of war, left 4 dead(i think) mass effect and so many awesome games coming out like fallout farcry RE5 and so on..your choice but i absolutely prefer the 360 much better and cheaper
No.
I really like the 360, and I should as I'm on my 5th one! Microsoft has been really good about repairs and now I think my 360 must have the upgraded heatsink on the GPU. It hasn't given me a single problem. Microsoft spent $1 billion extending warenties, so I wouldn't worry about it.
If your completly satisfied with your PS3, then no. I own both a PS3 and 360 and the 360 is my favorite console of the two. In fact, my PS3 is currently collecting dust because i haven't touched it ever since i beat MGS4 about 2 months ago. Hopefully that'll change when Resistance 2 comes out but my 360 will be getting a lot of love this holiday season with games like Fable 2, Gears 2, Farcry 2,Fallout 3 and the new Banjo Nuts and Bolts.

I'm thinking of getting a 360 too. I currently have a PS3, but I'm dying to play Halo 3, Mass Effect, Viva Pinata %26 Gears 2! I used to own an earlier 360, but it RROD. I'm thinking of getting the 60GB Pro.
Go for it. I can honestly say it is the best gaming console I have ever owned.
im the CEO of sony and i say buy a 360.
get one
Honestly I love my 360, I also liked what I played of my roomates PS3. As we all know most of the games now are going multiplat, so there isn't a vast amount of exclusives you're going to miss out on. So is Halo, Fable, Gears of War, etc... worth the cost to you?
I'm sure plenty of people will say how awesome the 360 is when it comes to hardware, and start a systems war discussion but my advice, just check out the 360 games libary and compare it to the ps3 and if your happy with what you got save your money and buy some more ps3 stuff or what have you.
yes. some people say that the PS3 has better graphics but i can never tell. the games libary for the 360 is brilliant so many more exlusive titles come out on the 360 than the PS3. alot of people i know are always saying the playstaton network cuts out, xbox live is far more reliable.GET ONE!
Don't get an Xbox360 because all it's games will go to PC anyways with superior graphics and controls.All you need is a PS3 and PC and you're set for gaming bliss.
yeah but i really don't like computer because everyone hacks too easily plus i can spend $5 for xbl monthly im not sure which to get though the elite or the normal 20gb. But im not getting the arcade i used to have a 20gb at like 5 months after launch.
