    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?

    That controller would hurt your hands like crazy after an hour of gaming.

    I voted don't buy a console, but of the 2, PS3 is the best by far.

    So unsubstantiated rumors and pictures of designs that never came to use are the only things that make the PS3 bad?
    Blu-Ray is actually a big advantage because Blu-Ray is great.
    And how many people of that superbig userbase can you play with simultaneously at any given time anyway? How many of them don't constantly get on your nerves?
    And why are PS3 exclusives like Uncharted and Demon's Souls overrated?

    The first Uncharted was good...the second sucked raspberries.

    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.
