Keep my 80gb PS3 or sell for 360?

I have had my original 80gb PS3 (4xUSB, card readers, Wi-Fi) for a while. I have GTA IV, SOCOM: Confrontation, NCAA Football 09, Need For Speed: Pro Street, Little Big Planet, two controllers, the Sony bluetooth, a Logitech wired headset, component cables, and a lot of other accessories for it. But its seems being a SOCOM fan its not worth the $530 I payed just for the system to keep it. I mean, sure all the games are fun but the new SOCOM really isnt what it used to be. When I had a 360 I played mostly COD4 and Halo 3, but it seemed like for some reason I had a lot more fun. I know in the long run the 360 costs way more and you get what you pay for with the PS3, but what would you do if you were in my shoes? Thanks.
EDIT - well the 360 isnt my first console, it dates back to the old N64! But its just, I play a lot more online, I basically ONLY play online, and it just seems like XBL is way better than PSN. I know what comes to cost and everything, and I probably will be losing money to sell my PS3, Im just a little confused. I know all the problems Microsoft has with the 360, but I have owned 3 and had never had a problem with any of the consoles.

I definitely wouldn't buy the 360 if I were you, there are still a ton of issues with it, like games getting ruined because of the unit being moved while it's turned on. I have friends that have lost a lot of money from their games being scratched by the system.

I say keep the PS3. Playstation Network is getting better all the time. PS3 plays BluRay. Almost all the games worth playing on 360 are available on PS3. Maybe you should get your hands on COD4 for the PS3?

I love my Xbox and all but I really don't think that it's all that great. So, I would just stick with the PS3.

Look I dont have a PSĀ·, but i have a 360. First im not a fan boy. Well this is complicated because you spent a lot of money on accessories for the PS3 and you're not having fun at all so if you sell it'd be a waste of money. You said you played 360 and had more fun, maybe because it was your first time and the first time always feels better than when you have the console for a long time. Everyone says that PS3 is better just because blu ray, and because Xbox 360's Red Rings of Death. Who cares about blu ray, its just a little bit superior than 360 graphics. Xbox have more games, and are cheaper, I have like 25 games and all my friends with PS3 have like 10. At the end its your choice, but if you'll buy a 360, I recommend the Elite, 120GB and no RRoD guarantee.

Maybe you can try to sell SOCOM: Conf. and then buy a used COD4 and Killzone 2(Alot of people designate it as the "Halo Killer".)
