Microsoft best:
XBL
One-year head start*
Microsoft worst:
RROD and other problems caused by rushed design*
Charging for XBL
HDD not standard
Super-expensive HDD ($100 for 20GB? Go to hell MS)
*The good and bad are intertwined but I count them separately
Nintendo best:
$250
Wiimote
Wii Sports pack-in
The big guns -- Mario, etc.
Nintendo worst:
Not enough production increase
Friend codes and generally being slow to embrace online elements
Sony best:
Upgradable standard HDD
PSN is free
Blu-ray*
Sony worst:
599 US dollars
Their marketing/PR in general
Getting rid of BC
SKUs coming out like crazy
Blu-ray*
Losing exclusives
*Having Blu-ray in the PS3 benefits the company as a whole much more than it does the PS3 but I think it was still sound strategy on the company's part, and there are / will be benefits to Blu-ray for the PS3.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
