Most people who own all 3 or 2 of 3 prefer the PS3, since it is the best value with the best exclusive games. I own all 3 and only talk positively about the PS3 because one is a toy to play from time to time with girlfriends and your parents (Wii) and the other rips you off every chance it gets (the 360 with the 100 dollar wifi, the 150 dollar 120GB hard drive, the 7 dollar a month online play ect ect ect).

The 60GB PS3 I have from release has been nothing but good to me. I've had free online play, replaced the hard drive with a 3rd party 500GB HD for 70 bucks and got access to every good game I want to play other then gears 1 and 2. Its more or less the only gaming platform I need these days, I have a que of 8 9.0+ games for the PS3 to play released in just the past month and a half.

The J man owns the ps3 and 360 and he prefers the 360.....as do alot of people........ there is something wrong with your analysis...... and I really doubt you own all three systems because if you did you would praise all of them somewhat equally (your prefered console the most of course) and not call one a "toy" and one that "rips you off".

  I do have a Wii, which I do use as a toy, and theres nothing wrong with that.  It is fun once in a while to play Wii Sports Resort with a girl who doesn't normally game and do some sword fighting.  I say its a toy rather then a serious gaming system because other then playing with other people in that kind of context, I never use it for anything resembling the kind of serious gaming experience that Arkham Asylum, Uncharted 2, Demon Soul's, Borderlands or other such games represent.  I certainly couldn't talk many girls into playing boarderlands with me though, so I'm fine with the Wii for what it is and still own/sometimes use it.

   As to the 360 I used to use it back when it was released and there was no alternative.  Look up impulsivity on Live, I have about 12000 gamerpoints so you can tell I DID use it.  I just haven't used it much at all since playing through Fable 2 because with a PS3 there is no reason to.  Why should I praise a system that charges for online play, overcharges for accessories, doesn't have the good exclusives and stutters through games more often?  It is just inferior to the PS3 and owning both I know that first hand.  If you would like pictures of my dust collecting 360 I will be happy to provide them.
