Ok guys. Big dilemma here. I like my 360. I really do. But since I got my new pc few weeks ago, there was no reason to even turn it on. Most games from that thing, run 1080p 60fps on pc so whats the point.

Now besides some exclusives like THE DARKNESS (my fav game), gow2,3, Crackdown, red dead and maybe some, there is NOTHING else.

so, If I should sell it - for what price? it's an elite jasper with 88 burned discs + lego batman +ihas.


OR

maybe I should sell it and get ps3? I would still have my fav game (the darkness) on it _ UNCHARTED GAMES, god of war and killzone!!! fuck.

Fuck Killzone indeed Laughing

And Uncharted isn't bad, but now that you have a decent PC all it'll do for you is "if only this was on PC....:'(".

I was thinking about buying a 360, but I will get a Wii U I think, because my niece asked me to buy one ^.^ ...

You still haven't sold that POS?
And you were at one time considering getting a loan for PC hardware instead of selling that?!

Wait... why am I surprised? Confused Laughing

My last consoles were PSOne and N64. And I'm still alive. I survived all those super cool awesome exclusives. Who would have thought that?

So yeah, sell it, or better, destroy it Twisted Evil

Not if you buy a "new" one (production date somewhere in the last year and a half or so). New ones can't be hacked. Only half of the Slims out there are old enough for it, the newest ones can't be jailbroken (yet).

for this one about 800pln. Only because it is ideal + 88burned discs, lt30 etc

So what slims can be downgraded? 3.55 is impossible to find. What highest soft is downgradable ?

He's lying. If the PS3 shipped with 3.56+, it can't be done (well, some 3.56 consoles can, but it's not entirely reliable).

KillerCrocker wrote:

3.55 is the maximum. It doesn't have to be ON 3.55, as long as it SHIPPED with 3.55.

Every phat can be downgraded; although phats with a model number up to and including CECHG (fifth one is A-G, the one that matters for these) you'll probably have to look harder. These are known as NAND PS3's and require more work to get downgraded. CECHH and up are known as NOR consoles, they are easier because they can use a NOR clip

As far as slims go: it has to have a manufacturing date BEFORE 2011. From January 2011 onwards no console shipped with 3.55 or lower.

So buying new ps3 is totally out of the way right ?

I don't want fat. so i need 2years used console? I am still not sure if I will sell xbox but there is really almost no point holding to it.
Same will be with ps3 once I finish exclusives.

Not to mention the next-gen consoles are on their way, with beta dev-kits already sent to developers.

Keep it for the upcoming exclusive games. Another console is not worth the investment, unles you can get a really cheap PS3.

dang it. And I don't really need ps3. I dealt without uncharted games for this long, I can deal without em ever

they're not that good games. they're ok. nothing really shines on the ps3 gameplay wise. it's all pretty gfx and shit. i wouldn't sell an xbox for a ps3. it's just stupid. but if you want to experience the exclusives. go ahead. they're worth it just to say you played them. but there's nothing in them to make you go DAMN THATS SOME GOOD CONTROL! lol...

wii u is a safe bet especially since you can hook it up to your tv and you can play party games w/ your gf. and nintendoland is pretty addictive. other than that... new consoles coming out next year. lol. full of ports and maybe one or two exclusive titles. xbox will be a media centre focused on kinect and ps4 will have one or two games (and no backward compatibility)

stick with xbox for now. there's loads of good games on it. plenty of great ports. \o/
