I was thinking of trading in this ps3 next year, to wait for the newer system (PS4), question is, when you trade in systems at gamestop do you need the box, and everything originally with it?

I'm pretty sure you don't need the box, but you probably need the cables.

PS4 won't be out till 2012-2014.

Those dates look so futuristic. :turborun:

It's kind of a given that they will, but nothing has been officially announced. We have at least 2 years before it's released, possibly longer.

If you like playing online though the xbox is better because there are shitloads of people on xbox. And also I think the games are better.

actually a ps3 exclusive is on average better than an 360 exclusive.....

perhaps the most repititive gameplay ever created......apart from tetris

Valkyria Chronicles. Ratchet series. Uncharted 1, 2. Resistance 1, 2. Killzone 2. InFamous. God of War 1,2,3. Gran Turismo 5. Metal Gear Solid 4. Little Big Planet. Demon's Souls. Final Fantasy 14. Blazblue. Wipeout. Socom. Warhawk.

Those are top exclusives off the top of my head (all either scores of around 9 or up or upcoming titles in huge franchises). I'll take that over Halo and Gears, personally.

PS3 = free online, wifi, blu ray player, lower failure rate, quieter....same price.

(not hating on 360, it's a fun console....just felt like laying some smackdown :turborun:).

Damn look at all the haters in here, and non-haters :p
Oh bout gears of war, i bought gears of war for pc, and the 2nd soon too.

like Tech,pain said in past, most games that come out for 360, besides halo come out for pc, but ps3 games only a few... and i like the interface (XMB) better than 360s

It's all the same stuff to me anyway.

Xbox 360 fits my budget, I like the controller a lot more (Playstation controller is too small for my hands I find), I know all of the PS3 exclusive games because I've played them on PS1/PS2 (MGS, Killzone, God of War, GTA, Ratchet series, Socom, Wipeout, Finaly Fantasty - all fantastic games though). I don't need blue ray, I have no idea what Linux is, my Xbox 360 is pretty quite already...

But I could have flipped a coin for the PS3/Xbox 360 if they were the same price and care less with what I ended up with, as long as I'm in the know and play the newest games 'cause I've been missing out on so much of them!

actually yes.. i read an article where they compared(dont ask me how) all exclusive`s ratings etc.. and came to the conclusion ps3 exclusive is on avg better than an 360 exclusive

they are great but i wouldnt call them amazing... ESPECIALLY gears of war with its super repetitive gameplay and great lack of guns.
Halo is cool... however not halo odst or halo wars....

Msoft didnt have anything to put out for the holidays so basically they threw out ODST.. which uses the same old engine(its untouched) but sold at those unsually high prices
it will sell well sure.. because of the name
also from another review
