I would go with the 360:
Sports:
- Better games with a higher framerate for all EA 08 games. NHL 08, Madden 08 etc.
RPG:
- 360 has to many RPG's to choose from including both J and W RPG's. In addition, 2009 is looking bright with Star Ocean coming to the 360. PS3 has FF13 but it wont be done for a long while I imagine.
This years RPG's:
-Infinite Undiscovery
-Fable 2
-Last Reminant
-Too Human
-ToV
Platform:
- Banjo will be the best platformer this year IMO.
FPS:
I think this is again 360 territory:
- Gears 1,2
- Halo 3
- Huxley
- Perfect Dark 2
- Left 4 Dead
- Killzone 2 will be good but the first one wasnt all that great. RFOM 1 was ok but again wasnt all that good.
Racining:
- Probably the PS3 for GT5 but I dont buy racers, not my thing
Other:
- PS3 does have MGS4 so I would give it a nod here. The 360 has Ninja Gaiden 2 so it depends on what kind of games you like. BTW I think Alan Wake will be up there in terms of best games this gen.
Fighting:
- Again based on preference. For me just the thought of Killer Instinct 3 gives the nod to the 360. I hope this comes out!!!!
Biggest factor for me is Live. I dont care what anyone says, Microsoft pretty much came up with the idea of online integration in consoles and will be the de facto moving forward. If you like Multiplayer gaming, the 360 is the way to go.
