Considering trading xbox360 for a PS3

[DXZeke]

I like both, but lately I'm starting to learn towards the PS3.

Yeah XBox Live is a hellava lot better than PSN, but having a system that won't break is nice... not to mention that Sony is starting to pick up some stride.

Sold my 360 last spring. Not many regrets. I know more people(like good friends) who have PS3's than others that had 360's. So it was kinda an obligation, but I love it so far. No stress about intercoolers and all that jazz.

I have a feeling alot of people will be going to the PS3 for their sports games especially if Microsoft keeps messing around with the roster makers. I feel that Gamerscore is one of the better innovations on Microsoft's part, but they need to realize that people who are trading rosters aren't doing it for gamerscore.

Dave, can you please elaborate on what the deal is with Microsoft and the roster makers situation? Thanks.

BTW, I made the move to the PS3 in July. I was getting frustrated, especially with NCAA 08, Madden 08 and NHL 08 getting the stepchild treatment, but now that the 30fps deal seems to be over with, I am loving my purchase.

I just love how the machine is an all-in-one console. I'm not too particularly fond of attachments to my game console. I also just found out yesterday that you can use ANY bluetooth headset device for communication.<--That's awesome. Also, transferring rosters is beyond simple.

There is no doubt the 360 has a sweeter, overall online experience, but I am not a huge online gamer. I play only sports titles with the only exception being CoD4.

I'm loving the PS3 lately and I can't friggin' wait for The Show to drop.

I'm not a big online guy and I think I'm going the PS3 route pretty soon. Halo was a ton of fun but I don't play enough to keep up with the curve. I'm starting my job on Monday so we'll see how much time I actually have for it.

Might make the move when CH drops.

Question for PS3 owners: Can I hook up a USB keyboard to the PS3?

Get what your real life friends have. I had a both but didn't see a lot of point in keeping both. I ended up keeping the PS3 b/c that is what my friends owned. Everyone complains about PSN but to be honest it does everything that I want. My friends and I play games online without any issue. I think the only thing I would like that Live has over PSN is in game ability to use friends list other than that. I don't see a feature that I use thats that much better on live. Again, my analysis get what the people you play with got.
