360 to ps3 to 360 again?

[Pierzynski 12]

Not me. I'm only going on my third full month of my 360.

I found a guy on craigslist in greenville who was looking to trade his bundle for a ps3. We're emailing back and forth.

His 360 comes with:

wireless Internet connector
Wireless Controller
Wireless Microphone
Regular Controller
Regular Microphone
Call of Duty 4
Assassins Creed
Mass Effect
Rainbow 6 Vegas
NCAA 2008
Madden 2007
GRAW
Oblivion

my ps3 will include:
Spiderman 3 bluray
Motorstorm
MLB The Show 07
bluetooth headset
wireless sixaxis controller
wireless dualshock 3 controller

The PS3 is alright, but I just miss the more games and people online the 360 has. I beat Burnout Paradise on the ps3, but it would have been more fun for me on the 360 most likely, because of Live. Also, GTA is a big reason I'm being pulled back to the 360. Live will make multiplayer epic.

How many of those 360 games have you played already/do you like? If those are games that you want to play, that seems like a decent deal. Of course, you could sell off some of those games too. Is it an elite?

Check the date on his system. If it's older than 6 mos I probably would not do it but that's just me. Peace!!!!

Well what if this one breaks? Than you are back where you were before, frustrated and without a console.

If you really want a 360 and assurance, sell what you have on eBay and buy a new 360 with warranty from BB. Just take your losses instead of buying someone else's 360 and risking losing even more money.

Xblive and the controller are definently better than the psn and ps3 stuff. For the mere 14 days i owned and went through 3 ps3's last summer (all of them havin somekind of problem). I found it difficult joining game with all of my 4 psn friends. Didnt understand why 20+ people games on psn network dont lag but when you try to play one on one the game gets disconnected or lags like crazy. The ps3 controller was horrible my fingers keep slippin off the triggers luckly i was already a season vet rainbow six vegas on the 360 i was easily able to own the ps3 noobs. Framerate issues, players with cheap bluetooth headsets echoing sound all over the place.

Luckly i was able to find of the Elites in July and swap my pitiful sony product for that. Havent had a problem since and now i enjoy call of duty 4 with friends.

I definitely miss XBL, Halo 3, Forza 2, etc. But I feel the same way about my switch to the PS3 that I did when I bought a Mac laptop a couple years ago: the thing just works. I never have to worry about dirty disk errors, red rings, etc. I'm still hoping that PSN will come around in terms of connectivity, as COD 4 is smooth as silk.

If I had a lot of money, I would probably own both. But having just a 360 would be too worrisome for me.

well he has a best buy warranty on it. So I could do the trade and just take it to best buy for a new one anyways. I just don't know how they deal with transferring the best buy warranty when you sell or buy the 360 from someone else.

Anyone know?
