 Times are tough and after selling my Wii, I have decided I need to sell another game console. If you had to choose, would you sell the 360 or the PS3 and why? Most upcoming games seem to be coming out for both consoles, I don't know of many exclusives.

I'd say the PS3, since it costs more and will soon cost less.

I would sell my PS3, because I rarely even play it.

 That statement might have been more fitting a month ago when PS3 price cuts were still in speculation mode.
 
If you're going to sell based on cost, it's best to ask the retailer what they'd give you since it's usually unpredictable (and low). Though personally, I would say sell the PS3 as well.

Is your PS3 a launch full b/c model or even an software emulated b/c model?  If it is I'd sell the 360.  You can rebuy a new arcade later for $199.  But even a new PS3 Slim will cost $299 and it won't support backwards compatibility.

I'd sell whatever gets you more cash really, or whatever you play less.  I mean both are going to be good systems to have in the next year.  Personally I'd rather a 360 over the next year just because I'm more attached to its franchises, but then I don't own a PS3 and haven't really had a chance to get attached to any of its exclusives.  Just depends what games you're looking forward to.  If I were you I'd go to a reliable release date calender and make a tally of games you're possitive you'd buy, then whatever list is longer go with that system.

I would sell my Xbox 360, been playing my PS3 ever since i got that over a year ago now, hardly ever turn on my Xbox 360 anymore. I would have no trouble leaving my 5 years of live membership behind me and my 41K Gamerscore, who cares.

360 because i had already invested allot of time on my PS3 and i don't know anyone on it. I only really play it for exclusives. It’s an elite also.

I'd sell my PS3...XBL is superior to PSN in almost every way. The 360 has better only 360 games than the PS3 has only PS3 games (not this year), but it is a better console, and there is just so much more you can do in terms of entertainment and chatting. 
Yes the PS3's hardware and visuals are better, but at the end of the day, if a game looks bad on a 360 but still is a helluva alot  of fun to play. Games are what determines how much enjoyment you get not visual experience.

I sold my 360. It was an easy decision after my third one died. Had it been working perfectly I probably would have still sold it, because I like the PS3's exclusives more and everything third party that is worth playing is either multiplatform or goes multiplatform a year after it's release.

I'm surprised that this thread has almost reached the 2nd page without any real fanboy fighting. As for me the PS3 would go but thats only if I was desperate

I used to have a 360 and a PS3 in addition to a Wii, but I got rid of my 360.  The technical issues I'd had with it, up to and including the fact that it scratched up game discs, was really the deciding factor.

I'd say sell the PS3. You could always buy the PS3 slim at a discounted price later.
 
Although the 360 isn't the most reliable unit ... Tough call.

If I had both, I'd probably sell the 360. There are PS3 games that are must haves for me.

I'd sell my 360 'cause I've had more time with that in full gear, and I've already got my money's worth there. The PS3 is newer, and good times apear to be on the way for it. 
But I ain't selling either. SWEET!

I've decided to sell my PS3 simply because it has a better resale value right now.
 
Thanks for all of your helpful input.

The PS3 is the cheapest Blu-Ray player out there, so your idea would be dumb wouldn't it? "
No cause then I would buy a player that would double as a AV system. Allowing me to connect other devices into it

keep the one that has the most comfortable controller to you, because soon it won't make any other difference.

I would sell my xbox because im scared that 1. its gonna break (the ethernet port is already broken on it restricting me from playing live) and 2. everyone is gonna realize that ps3 is getting bigger than 360 and prices will plummet.

I would say my PS3, because my Xbox 360 is the Halo Edition and I love that about it. But I never sell any of my consoles.
