Hi guys i need your advice. Im thinking about buying an xbox 360, when the jasper chip arrive. I already own a ps3 so this would be my second console.

Here's my choices

1. If i buy the xbox 360
i would get little big planet, socom for ps3. Gears 2 + fable 2 for xbox 360.

2. Dont buy xbox 360
buy little big planet, socom, (call of duty 5 or resistance 2), and fallout 3. Save 200-300 dollars

My concerns about getting the 360.

*If the next xbox comes out in a year or two
*Stop playing the 360 after a while (wasted my money) or stop playing the ps3 (wasted all that money i used to buy ps3+ games)

Make up your own damn mind. Have an original thought and don't rely on other peoples decisions, especially not the users on this site.

If you REALLY want to play Gears and Fable 2.... Then get the 360, because it will be more easy to get more games for the PS3 in the future...

I doubt that MS will release another console so soon and if they do.. I also doubt they'll cut support on the 360.

Just wait for the PC versions of Gears 2 and Fable 2. There's no reason why anyone should buy a 360 for its "exclusives".

Wouldn't that cost more than getting a 360

assuming his comp isn't up to GoW2 lvl.
I'd say Buy an Xbox, Some good games comming up, like infinite undiscovery and stuff.
+ its always nice to have a choice on which console to get your games on.
but then again missing out on R2 in its opening day would kinda suck >.<
....CoD5......lol >_> i dont know why you want that....
I guess it comes down to your personal choice really, do you REALLY wanna play resistance 2 that bad, or can you wait till you save up enuff $$$ to wait after buying your 360. :)

hope I helped

Fable 2 might be a great game but Gears 2 ain't worth the cost of the console. Just get more games instead. You might want to consider getting a job if you don't have one. Just a part time one. You'll be able to get more games than you have time for.

It's better to have multiple consoles as it gives you a multiple choice on game selection as well. I understand what you're saying however and it really depends on how big of a gamer you are. But I would not buy a console only for two games that I seem to think I will enjoy. Maybe you will get bored of such titles in the future?

There has to be a much more bigger reason to want to purchase anything. I find it best to question yourself.

Will I enjoy the features this console has?
Will I enjoy the upcoming games for this console?
Am I making the right choice?

There are many more questions you could ask yourself.

Although asking for advice is a good thing. The most important part is that you make the decision for yourself, and not from others ^.^
