Should I buy a xbox360 or PS3?? Please, just facts no fanboy bs.

- Graphics are roughly the same, xbox has a slight edge on multiplatformers but ps3 has real nice graphics in some 1st party titles

- Xbox has a better and bigger library of games but this trend is getting smoothed out, with the new incoming games. 360 will still have a slightly better from 3rd parties but Sony has a better first party support and some games many xbox owners would like to play like insomniac and naughty games.

- When you buy a PS3, you can be sure that the future support and long life is guaranteed. PS3 will probably exceed xbox 360 in the middle term. Xbox 360 will also have a longer life than original xbox but its not clear if it will have the same kind of support and life PS3 will have after several years.

- Blu ray is not a big deal NOW, but may be a big deal in like 5 years. But then the players will be much cheaper than today. It doesnt make sense to pay extra money to play bluray movies on ps3, because it depreciates the console's life, and spends too much electricity. Blu ray on PS3 makes sense only because of the extra capacity and "maybe" for rare casual bluray playback, but it is definitely a bad idea to use it as the main blu ray player.


- PS3 is pricey, the only reason I dont buy it now personally is the price level. At $300, I believe PS3 is a better value than xbox 360; but at $400, xbox360 has better value, so I'd go with 360 first and wait for a PS3 for about 1 year or so, meanwhile, the library and support for the ps3 will have grown.
