I currently own an Xbox 360 right now, but I'm growing tired of Micro$oft. I don't want to jump straight into next gen, but I feel like maybe I should see if the grass is greener on the other side. So, what do you guys think? Should I get a Playstation 3 and switch from a Xbox 360?

I'd just wait and get a PS4 if you're set on switching. The Last of Us is being ported to it, and with PS Now you'll most likely get to play all the PS3 Exclusives you missed on your PS4.

Yeah the guys are right because I was thinking the same thing, but them I remembered that Sony is doing the the free games a month, but a lot of the games that I wanted aren't even in their lineup anymore.

If you already have a 360, then there's not really much to gain from a PS3. It easily has the best exclusives this generation, but you'd be getting a console for just the exclusives... might as well get a Wii U. Ziiingg.

PS3 has no really great games for it that you could not get for xbox360. So, it would be a waste of time.

InFamous, Uncharted, The Last of Us and Beyond Two Souls are worth buying a PS3.

InFamous is on the PS4 now and TLoU will be coming.

 

So, if anything just get a ps4 not much of a price difference anyways.

For Christ's sake, your signature is as pedophile as it can get. She's 14, goddamit.

 

It could be Clementine. Would you prefer that?

I'm curious to see how your art style would transfer when working with characters from graphic novels instead of video games, so the why the f*ck not?

My four games I have for my Next Gen easily beats out the fifty I have for curr gen. It aint even close either. I would say though, unless they have been working on a title for a long period of time, anything curr. gen. is second tier now. They are putting most of there efforts into Next Gen.

I'm talking about the first two InFamous games, what's so hard to understand?

There's no point in buying a PS3 or Xbox 360 at this time. You should buy a PS4 instead - GTAV is coming out for PC and next-gen consoles soon, so no worries there.

PS4 no doubt. inFamous: Second Son is an eye catcher at the moment. Plus there's been a new exclusive announced, but that's a zombie online survival game similar to DayZ. Plus TLOU is coming to PS4 as a remastered version. And then the future exclusives

Well, duh. It's probably obvious that he was talking about the latest one, not the last two.

Switch to PS3 if there are any exclusives that you'd like to play that is worth the money you'll spend.

 

That's the only advice I have for you.

Right now the only thing I use my PS3 for is Netflix. When I first bought it, the first 2 games I got were Red Dead Redemption and Infamous. Mostly every other game I have is a PS3 exclusive, while some others are multiplats I got from a friend. So there you go.

If you asked this about a year to a year n' a half ago I'd probably say yeah get a cheap PS3.

 

But now that(next-gen) the PS4 is in full swing, I'd save up for one. Lotta good games coming down the line.

Go with 360 until your gold runs out then upgrade to PS4. I don't know when the price will drop. As of now, the only decent games on PS4 are Battlefield 4, ACIV and InFamous. Driveclub, The Last of Us, Watch_Dogs and Dying Light are all coming out relatively soon, though.

You can actually buy PS3 games from PS Now to, not just rent. The only problem with it is the latency input. It's not stable enough.

Thanks for all the input guys! I don't know... I'm still thinking about buying a PS3. It would be cheap, free online, and a few exclusives. I may upgrade to a PS4 later, but the interface and the entire way of how PSN works may overwhelm me. I know PS4 doesn't have free online, but Sony is really cashing in on their next gen console. I just don't want to join the huge bandwagon and pay all that money for that console. I'll wait till the price drops later. Any last thoughts to change my mind? Anyone?

I wouldn't get a PS3. Sure PS3 has better exclusives and but its time to move on. Trust me its for the better.

 

At the moment both next gen systems have no good games.

 

Decent games:
Battlefield 4 - If you're looking for a next gen online game

Infamous Second Son - If you're looking for a next gen open world game

ACIV - If you're looking for a different kind of open world game

 

Games coming soon:

Dying Light - I heard this game got delayed again

Watch Dogs - May 27th

Drive Club - Free to PS+ users

The Last of Us Remastered Version - A game so good that it made GTA V its bitch

Uncharted 4 - Naughty Dog's first REAL next gen game

GTA V - In order to keep GTA online alive this game has to come to next gen. Most likely end of this year to 2015

Star Wars Battlefield ( aka battefront ). I use that as a joke cause DICE is making it suppose to come out late 2015

I'm not buying a PS4 until it goes down real cheap, which will be in about 3 or 4 years. I say get a PS3, since it's really cheap now. And plenty of more games for it. As a matter of a fact, I'll be getting my own PS3 one of these days, I don't really care for PS4 at the moment.
