The only way I can see this happening is if they go to a download-only model and there's no such thing as physical games you can buy and sell.
Not that I'd be especially upset if I couldn't buy a used game from gamespot for thirty cents less then a new one, or trade in my used games to them for a ball of pocket lint.

LOL. No, I sent my PS3 to sony 4 different times(I know for a fact 3, but i believe it was 4) I have had 2 different Xbox systems and had it break down with the RRoD once, Microsoft realized it was their error and repaired it for free, while Sony made me pay 2 times for the same thing(Which was their error) and the last time to save my data I tried to do it myself and missed a crucial step so I lost my PS3.
Note: i am not arguing performance, cause I loved my PS3 and its games and bluray and the whole 9 yards. But if it is gonna have constant errors I am gonna go with the company who doesn't give me the shaft. And I wanna play the new Halo lol.

that really made you "laugh out loud" The 360 has had the highest failure rate of all 3 systems every year they have been out.
Just because you have had more die of ps3 doesnt change that fact.

It does for me. I have had both and one has done flat out better than the other, and in this business like most others its all about personal satisfaction and preference.
Another note to point out is that while it may have had more failures at least the fixed mine for free, Sony was charging 90$.

Microsoft didnt always fix it for free, they did when it got threatened with a class action lawsuit with the data to back it up a couple years in the consoles lifespan.
Ps3 does not fail enough to warrant the sameThe launch ps2 did have a similar failure rate and they also fixed it for free.
Microsoft is not fixing it because they want to, they have to because it was a hardware problem until the new 360s came out a year or two ago

I don't care if they want to or not, they did it for free and sony did not. Once I pay for that once I am hesitant to do it again, I did it again anyways and it happened a 3rd time so I complained and got it fixed free....and it happened again.

I sell my games to Amazon now. The hassle-to-reward ratio is perfect for me, it gives you the price you'll get for the games, I print out a UPS label, drop it off in the mail room at work, wait for email saying my amazon credit is ready.

That doesn't change my point that it was not free for everyone. They started doing it for free a couple years in for the reasons I stated. and my point of why the ps3 is not fixed for free
It also doesn't change the fact that Ps3s are more reliable than 360s
I am not asking for your opinion or personal experience, I am saying by and large the ps3 is more reliable- which it is
really what are you arguing with me about? I know your story, I have read about it in the last 3 posts

I think what we've learned ITT is that the current generation of video game systems all suck from a reliability standpoint. Sadly I doubt it's anything to do with Sony or Microsoft specifically, and more to do with the fact that we live in a world now where products aren't meant to last. It's fine that a cell phone only lasts the two years until you get a new one, but if these things are going to have 7-8 year product lifecycles they need to be built to last that long.

Hate to tell all you Sony guys but I was at a GameStop recently and one of the corporate guys was in there talking about it and was acting like Sony is in really bad shape right now and it will be a while for them to do anything with it, he was even acting like Microsoft could really 'put the dagger in the heart' of Sony hell If I know though I just play the damn things
