All you Xbox folks. (Gaming)

It wouldn't be hard to find a used PS3 and copies of The Last of Us and Journey for a little over $100.

It would be totally worth it, IMHO. You could sell everything after and it would cost you little other than time, and it would be time well spent.

I bought my PS3 on black Friday a few years back, and those were the first two games I played, and I was astounded. I have an affinity toward and a history with the Xbox platform, but those games opened my eyes. There are other games out there, and they may be better than anything you've played before.

I keep hearing of games that sound very interesting and I think to myself "That sounds like a cool game I'm going to go find it" but when I do, it's always for the PlayStation.

I just don't know if I can bring myself to get one though. It's not that I find them absolutely horrible or anything. And yes, I know I've been one of those people that have tried to get you PlayStation people to come over to the XBox side... Anyway, I wish they would port it :-)

They won't. Sony owns Naughty Dog. And Journey was developed under contract with Sony.

Refurbished PS3s are $99 at gamestop, and I'm sure there are cheaper ones out there.

Still like Xbox a lot, and the recent backwards compatibility stuff makes me very happy that it's been my console of choice. I'm not into the JRPGs or other many of the other things that the Playstation platform has been known for, but I paid about $270 to play The Last of Us and Journey, and it was, for me, one of the best gaming bargains I've ever taken advantage of.
