I am an Xbox owner and I've been thinking of making the switch. Problem is, used Xbox 360's are worthless. You get nothing for them on craigslist, etc because they are already cheap brand new, and people sell modded ones which dont work with live, not to mention risk of the red light problem.

I dont use xbox live and none of the xbox exclusives have ever really got me excited. Maybe because I'm older and I game less, but I think the mixture of PS3 being a blu ray player and the fact that it can still satisfy my gaming fix when I do get the urge, it seems like the system better suited to me now.

The thing I do like better about the xbox is the controller. Just feels better in the hand IMO.
