I have been loyal to Playstation since PS1. I got a PS2 on day one, and still have it to this day (works perfectly, never a problem). So it made me want to get a PS3 because of PS2's longevity. That being said, I got an Xbox 360 instead. Why? Well, main reason is it was $140 cheaper (got the 20gb right when the price cuts happened, before it was discontinued). I was able to get games, another contoller, and 13 months of Live for the same cost as a core PS3. I wanted it right away, and I had birthday money, but not enough for a PS3 plus games, controller, etc, so I went Xbox 360. I have had it since September and have loved it with no problems ever since. Almost all my friends have 360, so I get a lot of good Live games going on. If PS3 was cheaper, I probably would have gotten that, but since I got the 360, I have been more than pleased and Microsoft will most likely get my money next gen as well. I do have a PSP tho, so Sony and I are still buds...heh.
