Which HD is right for me?

Right now 360 has broader library but it clearly still does have reliability issues and if you plan on being online you need to consider paying for MS service vs Sony's service being free.

On flip side PS3 is without question more reliable product but it has weaker library overall (although i suspect this will cease to be the case by end of year or early 2009 at latest). PS3 does get you BR if that is of interest.

I'd say have a good long look at what exclusives are known for each for at least next 12 months - i.e. 360 will have Fable and LO but PS3 will have FF plus GT5 & MGS and White Knight Story (I think that's the title) - and see which titles appeals most to you.

Multi-platform titles (of quality) are essentially the same on each now (despite pixel pouring fanboys). If you look at DMC4 or Asssassins' Creed or Burnout Paradise (or GTA IV) on a typical setup then to the average joe they look and play the same.

If I was to consider a 'tilt' approach I'd probably suggest the PS3 might be better for you as in the long run I think its more likely it will end up with a more diverse library (particularly outside of shooters) than 360 - but of course that's just my own feeling.

Or you could get a PC!

Your name may be Reasonable but you did a pretty good job of slighting the 360 with that lineup listing.

By the end of the year:

360:
Splinter Cell: Conviction
Fable 2
Infinite Undiscovery
Too Human
Halo Wars
Banjo Kazooie 3
Ninja Gaiden II

For the PS3, I'll extend into next year (a little unfair I know but since the OP doesn't like FPS, the PS3 lineup is a little weak in 2008):
LittleBigPlanet
FFXIII
GT5
White Knight Story
MGS4

By the middle of 2008, I think the lineups between the two will be comparable. The PS3 will have fewer games but more blockbusters (GT5, MGS, FF). On the other hand, the 360 will have an absolute mountain of 80+% games by that point but not quite as many blockbuster games.

 the user clearly stated he perfer Japanese games over western game. So, fixed for you

So literally you are comparing Infinite Undiscovery and NGII with FFXIII, White Knight Story and MGS4
