    Exactly, the scientific term would be Nintendo girl.

    That.

    What art-house service? Is that related to the grind-house service? My black MLP(My Little Playstation) has been shiny ever since I bought it, that's why it looks good on my table.

    The greatest thing ever, huge arthouse collection on demand. But because it's Sony IT WILL CHANGE HOW WE THINK ABOUT MULTIMEDIA FOREVER, as always, so we will just have to wait and see.

    It's completely down to which exclusive games you are after.

    Ya, more good exclusives on the PS3 imho, and most of xbox's best titles that don't make it on the PS3 can be played on the pc as well. Xbox is a bit of the poor man's pc.

    Xbox360, easily.

    It has the biggest user base, thus the most active number of people online. so much so, Call of Duty MW2 for example, has 4 times the users on Xbox360 than PC and PS3 put together.

    As for "PS3 has free online", Playstation are changing this, and charging people £10 per month for it. Xbox only charges people £3.60 per month.

    PS3 exclusives are completely overrated and any good games which are on the PS3 are also on the Xbox360.

    It also has the best controller. I even use it for my PC.

    Hearsay!!
    The current PSN will stay as it is = FREE!!! They are only discussing adding a Premium feature that you need to pay for.
    The Xbox is noisier, scratches the game disks and is butt-ugly

    Speaking of ugly, how would you react to this Foreman Grill + Boomarang set?

    PS3 was the poor mans Blu-ray player, because when it first came out, it was cheaper than a stanalone Blu-ray player. Only reason many people bought it.

    I know of a few people with both consoles, and the only reason they still only have the PS3 is because of the blu-ray function, while they are playing the hours away on their Xbox360.
