PS3 vs. Xbox360I found it difficult to chose ... Actually I thought i'd get the ps3, but I finally decided on xbox360, because:
1) If you want a multimedia monster machine, ps3 is the one, blu-ray and all... unless you can live with the noise from xbox and does'nt mind paying extra for blu-ray or don't care. I find the xbox too annoyingly noisy to use for dvd + music, and also I'm allready covered nicely thx on the multimedia front otherwise and I only needed it for playing, so xbox works fine for me.
2) Most games are currently developed primarily for the xbox, because the game-engine is easier to program for and programmers are lazy people Result is that for a while yet games will look nicer on the xbox even though the ps3 has a more powerfull potential. See for instance the Assasins Creed game. Guess the programmers just need time to figure out how too make full use of the ps3, and my guess is that in approx 2 years the ps3 games will kick ass.
3) Well regarding the online part xbox is in the lead. ps3 has some work to do to reach their big dreams. So it also depends on how much you'r going to use this feature. I'm going to use it, and I prefer features that actually function, so again I chose xbox.
Result for me ... I bought the xbox360 and perhaps a ps3 in 2 years when the price is reasonably low and the ps3 has left the xbox behind in the dust, but who knows what other interesting consols will be availeble in 2 years
No heavenly sword for me then
Hope this was usefull for ya

I think it usually comes down to which console has the most games you want to play. For me, I got a 360 for Halo 3. The only game that interests me on the PS3 is Little Big World, but to buy a console just for one game is a waste. Basically becomes a $700 game.
Exclusive games aside, what I like about the 360:
- Achievement points - it's surprising how addictive those are.
- As Mirax said, the online features are there - marketplace, friends list, being able to download game demos and videos is cool. no games on the arcade have grabbed me yet though.
- Most of my friends have a 360, or both, so it makes sense to have the same system so that we can play together.
- I use Windows Media Player 11 to share my files to my xbox so that I can view my videos on my TV.
- I prefer xbox controllers to ps controllers.
Non-contention points for me:
- Graphics -- I don't care about graphics, I care about how fun a game is.
- Blu-ray capability -- I don't see upgrading my entire movie collection to blu-ray, so I don't need a blu-ray player.

: O I have some mad love for the Dualshock controllers lol. Xbox controllers are ok for me, a bit awkward but that's mainly because I haven't had much play time on any xbox I suppose ^^;

Completely agree, why would you get a system if you don't like the games?
And I actually prefer the Sony dual shock although the 360 controller is a vast improvement from the first xbox controller... but that's prolly cos I have small hands =__=
