Simple answer, yes it is most definitely worth it to get a 360.

I myself wouldn't get one (again). If I knew that the RROD would get me after 8 months of game play, and that the 360 used up all their games. I advise you to get a PS3 because it's going to get a bunch of great games for it soon. I'm talking about like a matter of months maybe. The 360 has lived it's life span, it was fun on the way down but now it's screwed over kinda.

Used up all their games? Too Human 1, 2, and 3? Mass Effect 2 and 3? Gears of War 2, Fable 2, Ninja Gaiden 2... No I think not...

As for RROD, yes its gay... but the newer models have a lower failure rate and it still comes with 3 year warranty. I thought about trading my 360 in after getting it repaired for another PS3, but I cannot give up the 360 games and online, they're just too good compared to PS3.

As compared to the PS3 with Spore, LittleBigPlanet, and MSG 4...
The rest of it's good games that are coming out are on the 360 ANYWAY. Also, the only other good games it has that aren't on the 360 are Ratchet and Clank, Resistance, and MotorStorm. Meanwhile, the 360 has Gears of War 2, Too Human, blah blah blah... the 360 will live. It's a worthwhile investment.

360, WAY better console then wii, the gaming library is huge and there are very few games that can be called horrible, only downside is paying for live, but even that is a good deal cause its such a great experience.

but beware the ps3, as it has a very promesing gaming line up in the near future

If you get the core you have to get a memory unit to play online: a.k.a. a Hard Drive, which runs up to $100. Oh gee, that means you just wasted $50, which you could have put towards an extra game, only throwing in $10!

I would say get a 360, but get the premium edition, not the core because you get a hard drive with the premium edition. The online is great and there are a lot of decent online games.

I definitely recommend the 360. It's the most used game system I own followed by Wii.

100% worth it!

My Wii has been gathering dust since i bought the 360. A far more accomplished console than the Wii or PS3. And it pains me to say so because im such a PlayStation fan!
