You've been on these forums long enough to have 1,000+ posts.

If you don't already know more than enough about both consoles to make an informed decision then nothing we say can possibly help you.

I can't help but wonder if this is flamebait for a console fight...

 

Anywho, make a list of the games you want for each console. Go with the one that has more.

 

I agree, but if this is legit...

 

-The PS3 is definatly more reliable than the 360 when it comes to failure rate, but the failure rate is much lower than at launch so this is rare but still possible.

-The PS3 will make "HD" games look much better on an HD TV(I've owned both consoles and have played them on the same 1080p TV).

-360 has a slightly better online experiance but it comes with a fee(its only 5$ a month so if your okay on cash it isnt an issue); PS3 is free and only slightly worse than XBL.

-Game wise 360 is stronger but if non of the future lineup's change this will change in sooner than a year in PS3's favor.

-Controllers are slightly different; in another thead I saw you said you owned a PS2... If you are comfortable with that controller than there is no reason to change.

-(I can't say this is a +) There is alot more socializtion on XBL(which inturn comes with cracky voiced 13year olds), Inturn I've noticed less kids on PSn via voice but people don't tend to talk as much.

-Price 360 wins, PS3 is 100$ more depdning on what model you buy.

 

In the end I'd make the choice based on upcoming/current games and if you are looking into an HD movie player or not. Both consoles are the same on graphics, online reliablity, sound and most other common features you can think of.
