I am surprised at the number of responses that would honestly take a 360 over a PS3, without price considerations:

Consider the Wii and PS2 as obvious choices. You can't go wrong with them, and it seems the majority of posts in the thread agree.

X360 exclusives, and partial XBox BC.
over
PS3 exclusives, and Blu-Ray (...and I suppose PS1 upscaling is kinda cool).

Are the 360 exclusives and partial BC of the 360 really that good, that its worth foregoing Blu-Ray and the PS3's exclusives list? Is it not only price that motivates people to purchase 360s over PS3s?

Imagine that all 360 and PS3 exclusives balance out in the end (I know this is highly debatable... lets not discuss it here) -- does partial BC from a relatively weak console library, like the original XBox's, really outweigh the quality of Blu-Ray movies over DVD?

Apparently some folks think so, which is very interesting (to me).  I suppose the online services also have to be considered in this case...
