Default Re: What Would Drive you to the other Consoles?

The 360's lineup drove me to a PS3, I saw many many many more games I wanted to play on the PS3 and I went for it. I've not regretted in once.

I don't know what it would take to get me to buy a Wii again...

I don't get that at all, too expensive? I see it as a way better daal than the 360.

$350- Xbox 360
$50- 1 Year of Xbox Live
$100- Wireless adapter to play online

Total= $500

$399- PS3
$0- Online for forever
$0- Built-in adapter

Total= $399 or to be fair, if you want a HDD that is 4 times bigger instead of 2 times bigger then it would be $499

* And that includes a Blu-Ray player *shrugs*

Well assuming you know I don't have a wireless adapter.
And I have never bought anything on my 360 full price.

They still work out about the same.
And yeah I felt the 360 was too damn expensive as well, but I got 100 dollars back so it was a steal.

You're a CAG

But that's for you though, I didn't know that you don't have a wireless adapter. But for many people the PS3 would still be the cheaper option in the short and long run. But everyone just still sees the PS3 as the $600 piece of shit that only has Resistance and I feel bad for them because they're missing one hell of an offering of games.

Free. Yeah, if they were free I'd be more inclined to pick them up.
