Why do YOU have an Xbox 360?

I have to be honest, the only reason I feel like not selling my 360 is because of Fable 2.  Yeah Gears 2 is probably gonna be great, but I'm not that excited for it, like I am for Fable 2.  Right now I have it for Halo 3, but I haven't even played that in a week or so.  I don't want to say I have gone over to the dark side( ps3 fanboy).  But the only fun I've been getting recently, is out of my PS3.  I guess it's just the Microsoft E3 presentation but i seem to have lost my enthusiasm for my Xbox.  If anyone is on the fence as far as keeping their console for one or two games.  What games are making you keep YOUR Xbox 360.

I originally bought it for Mass Effect.  Now I'm looking forward to Too Human, Fable 2, Last Remnant, Gears 2, which are all 360 exclusives.  The line-up of games on the 360 is still much more impressive than the PS3.  I have both, and rarely use my PS3 right now, since there's not much to play on it.

Xbox Live Arcade, a working online service, achievments, and all the good games

Can't wait until Farcry and Fable 2 come out

I have an Xbox 360 because the majority of my friends who play games own one, so it's very easy to play online with friends. Also, it has some fantastic games available. Like Call of Duty 4, Unreal Tournament 3, and so on.

I got mine for Halo 3, but I got it like 3 months before it came out and barely played it before. I barely play it now a days. I might keep it for fable 2, gears 2 and sd vs raw 2009.

All the games I currently own are sufficient enough reason to own a 360, yet alone whats to come.
I'm looking forward to Fable 2, Gears 2, Far Cry 2, that UFC game looks pretty sweet, Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5, Smackdown vs Raw 09, Fallout 3 (if they sort out the whole banning fiasco, stupid Australia!), Left4Dead...
Theres probably a few I'm missing, but I have more then enough reason to justify having the 360 take up precious space.

I have one because its cheaper than a PS3 and I get to play so many awesome games with it. I like the overall lineup better too. The only game I wish came to 360 is MGS4....damn.

gears 2, viva pinata 2, banjo 3 thats about it oh yeah the original banjos

I have my 360 to play games, and since I only have Orange Box, I'd say I have a lot that I can progress to. :)

Live, XBLA, points, Netflix, Gears 2, Halo Wars, Left 4 Dead, Too Human,  Fable 2,  Portal: Still Alive, Geometry Wars 2, Galaga Legions, Pirates vs Ninjas Dodgeball, Braid, other multi-platformers that will be better on Live, and because well...  I like it.. alot.

"I don't want to say I have gone over to the dark side( ps3 fanboy).  But the only fun I've been getting recently, is out of my PS3. "

Not to sound like a fanboy, but what games, exactly, are you playing on your PS3 not named Metal Gear Solid 4?

If you're one of those people that buys and sells consoles and it's no big thing, you could probably sell your 360, though I'd wait until after the October release rush. Play some good games and let someone get a 360 for Christmas :)

Just remember though, PSN ain't no XBL. Just ask Konami.

I am actually not playing Metal Gear. I haven't played it at all since I am not really a Metal Gear Fan.  Right now I am playing Burnout Paradise and alot of the games on the PSN. (too many to list).  I just got bored of what Microsoft has to offer.  To reply to your other statement I am not the type of person to buy and sell consoles. I bought all my consoles on launch and I still have all those same units, PS3, Wii, and yes even 360 ( i was one of the lucky ones who didn't get the red ring). I agree with your statement about XBL being better then the PSN, but only to an extent.  The online service is only good for the games that it offers and since I got bored with my xbox games, I just don't seeing myself paying $50 to renew my subscription to XBL when I don't even use it. Especially when I can just turn on my PS3 and play all my games online for free.

NHL08/09/10 ..... etc..that's about it, oh and I will most likely buy Too Human and give Gears 2 a rent and buy Rockband 2. Outstanding console, but the PC is where it's at for me.   :P

XBL may be better than PS3 but MGS4 kills any game the 360 has in stock...

games and the Live service

the 360 is the sole reason I am still in gaming. I would've given up on gaming long ago if I had just stuck with my Wii or PC. I mean, I would never fully stop playing Warcraft or C&C, but the only game that I would play regularly is.... exactly. I'm keeping my 360 because thats the only thing I still have to look forward to in gaming.

I wanted all 3 systems since I think they all offer something different.

360 has the best games. there i said it

I bought my 360 in October for Gears of War 1. I played it at a friend's house and thought it was amazing.

Xbox 360 has the best games hands down. Xbox also has the best online gaming of any console ever. The Wii is fun, the PS3 has the best graphics, but the 360 is best when all is said and done.

Best game selection over any other console.

Great games.

I wanted to play BioShock, Mass Effect, the better version of the Orange Box, and Gears of War.

Also, this should def. be in the Xbox 360 forum, not General Discussion...

I originally got one because I felt like I was missing out. Was still playing on Ps2 and all the 360 game videos and pictures online turned me green with envy!
 Now, one year later I am still happy with my purchase.

Of course there will be dry spells when you are not playing anything, but with the 360 you are pretty much guaranteed some
awesome game that is going to blow you away is about to be released!

I have one because all the JRPG action moved to greener pastures.

I was an Xbox fanboy and became fan of many Xbox exclusives, so I got a 360. I don't regret it.

The PS3 really doesn't have much going for it.  I mean, I have MGS4 and thats it.  I am looking forward to more 360 games than PS3 by far.

are u the real mad expon?

I bought it for Halo 3 and games like Oblivion, Mass Effect and Gears of War.  Now that I have a PS3, I will probably buy all of the multiplatform titles for that system instead of the Xbox.  I'll keep the Xbox around for Gears 2 and Mass Effect 2.

I got the 360 because it has a lot of games that I like or am looking forward to.

Awesome online component, fantastic controller, and great game selection

Most Multiplatform game play better on 360

I also have a PS3 though, so I get EVERYTHING rad!

I bought cause the box was purtty! I got hypnotized by the swirls @_@
