thinking of selling my 360 - can I reclaim my gold subscription?

Thinking about selling my 360 but I still have about 11 months Gold subscription paid for - is there anyway of passing this over to another account or even reclaiming the money for the unused subscription from MS?

but will I not have to leave my account details on (including my credit card details) for them to be able to take advantage of it?

I'm actually thinking about either selling or chopping in both my JAP PS3 and my 360 against a UK PS3.

With the 360 I have 2 x controllers with rechargable batteries + a play n charge kit - wifi - VGA cable & 3 games. Any idea how much I would get on a trade in?

You can delete them I think?

Pretty mad you'd be selling your 360 at a point where the major titles are on the horizon. Any reason why? I know you've mentioned you're an avid gamer a couple of times.

just gonna stick to one console for a while as I just dont get enought time to play the games I have. PS3 and PSP will be more than enough to keep me busy tbh and some of the big games which I'm looking forward to on 360 are also coming out on PC i.e. Alan Wake.

I do think you're mad though .

I know what you're saying and I do wish I had more time, but alas I dont

My PC is a Dell XPS M1710 laptop with a Geforce 7900GTX 512MB, so should be good enough for Alan Wake.

I actually much prefer the PS3 to the 360 (quieter, BD and better controller IMO) and being as though I got the 360 for nothing then I'm making, not losing, by selling or trading.

I actually have 4 games not three. Forza 2, Viva Pinyata, Dead Rising and GOW.

Best choice is having both consoles really, can't lose.

yeah that would be a good choice, in an ideal world with 28 hour days. unfortunately though time is a lacking and I needed to make a decision on which one to drop - it wasnt a hard decision really as the PS3 stands well above the 360 as a quality peice of hardware (IMO) and there are plenty of games due out which are more than enough to keep me busy.

I know its your choice but from a gaming perspective you'd be crazy to ditch a 360 for a ps3 at this time. Metal Gear and Gran Turismo are the only main games to look out for. On the other hand the 360 has tons of good games either out or coming out. Don't forget that GTA is also having exclusive content on the 360. If it has to be one or the other your best bet would be to stick with the 360 surely?

Out of all the games Im really looking forward to, most are on PS3 and the ones which are coiming out on 360 are either out on PS3 or PC as well.

I completely agree, but I think he's keeping the PS3 for Blu-Ray playback.

Well it's one reason, but Little Big Planet and Drakes Fortune are a couple of others.

done it now anyway - stuck em both (and a few other bits) on members market
