Thinking of trading my 360 for ps3..good idea?

[Chief Illinimac]

I'm not a huge gamer by any means, but I love my PS3. It's incredible when used as a media center. I'm talking movies, music, pictures, internet... I can rip my DVDs onto my computer and convert them to a CD-size format that will play on the PS3, and the picture quality is basically the same. I have a 500GB external hard drive with TONS of movies/music on it, and that is basically how I watch movies now.

I think the whole bundle can sell for $500 pretty easily, what do everyone think?

I plan on getting the new 2k baseball game and the framerate issue scares me. Is this in all games on the PS3 or only a few?

The 360 version of NCAA is definately smoother than the PS3 version. I have the PS3 version and its still good. Not a gamekiller at all but the 360 was better for NCAA right now. I expect next year that the 30 vs 60 fps issue will be gone.

If you want a baseball game, definately get a PS3 just to have the ability to get the Show. Most consider it the best baseball game and not 2K's version. 2K is fixing a lot of things but the Show is simply fantastic already.

I sold it to my little brother $400. That is more than gamestop would have given me for it but probably less than ebay. So the next question would be what game shows off the PS3's abilities the best. I think I'm going to get the show '07 just to have some baseball.

I would sell the system with MLB2K7 and Oblivion, and everthing else separate.

or I'd sell it to my little brother for $400, while skipping the chore of selling it online.

I'd get Uncharted: Drake's Fortune...it's the best game on PS3 IMO Along with The Show, I'm loving that game too, obviously....
