I am not trying to be a fanboy, just comically objecting to the PS3's very misleading and silly new slogan.
I guess if you really feel I need to expand, I shall.
I do agree that the fun time one was subjective. I also would like to note that I do not include web-based applications with the PS3 because they are not built in features. The Web Browser is the feature, not the uses of it. The experiences with the PS3 web browser are also very limited seeing as how it is such a proprietary browser and does not support all the latest online media formats. With Xbox 360 these are integrated into the online experience itself with unique and smooth flowing interfaces. If I have missed anything or you wish to argue the point, feel free and I'll ammend the lists. I would also like to note I am saying irregardless of price factors.

Just because its integrated you think Facebook and Twitter shouldn't count on the Playstation side? Or that you can listen to Last.FM using the browser. In fact, the browser offers huge amounts of freedom. And really all the "X game store" on both sides should really only count as a single game store as both have similar offerings from what I've seen. You've also left out PSP support on the Playstation side. Plus ethernet is not an add-on (unless you mean the cable). And Kboard and Mouse. And the easy transfer of files from PC to console (on both sides). Are you sure you don't work for Ms as this is normally what companies do to spin there list of features for a device. Take very similar feature and repeat them to artificially inflate numbers.

On the PS3 you can't chat with people or post status updates. What is the point of Facebook then?
