If you are a minimal gamer it may be worth your while to buy just a standalone player.
Both consoles have problems
The PS3 is still ludicrously expensive for what it is.
The Xbox doesnt play Blu Ray.
If you are set on a console you need to consider that the Xbox needs a wireless upgrade or a cable for internet access.
The PS3 Wifi is inbuilt.
Also the PS3 is more reliable but it gets really really hot. My friend melted the side of one of his game cases when he left it near the heat exchanger on the side.
