BOTH consoles have the same amount of games. But a wide library of games on the 360 still cheaper.
BOTH have same graphics on HD, Still a 360 advantage on multiplats - even Mirrors Edge gives a higher frame rate/AA on the 360 and thats PS3 lead, to rely heavily on one example like a fanboy
BOTH in the long run cost the same (If you pay for Live forever it adds up to the PS3)

this mans got the best post, everything down to facts and the ps3 although the most expensive has the best value overall.

 

 

 

As Squilliam points out, for God's sake don't buy an  older 360. Used PS3s are a great option, for full BC.  Certain other models have very very extensive BC, too.

Don't buy a $199 360 without a hard drive, unless you're poor and don't mind long loads.  If you're poor, probably don't buy a console.
