Buy XBOX 360.

PS3 no doubt.

More games, free online, no region lock. Nuff said.

My persuasion levels are way too low. I'm not Revan, y'know.

1. Buy eneloops. Everybody should.

2. Why do your controllers don't worl anymore?

The PS3 has free online plus The last of Us and Uncharted 2

I went to 360 last gen and don't regret it.
1. The controller is way superior, in my opinion.
2. I wanted to play Gears of war :)
3. I wanted to play Forza which overtook Gran Turismo last gen, in my opinion.
4. It has a way better OS and it offers differential and cumulative patches.
5. Almost all multiplats look and/or play better on 360.
6. Getting free games with a Gold subscription (and even keep it after Gold expires) is a great value to me.

Or, you know, in my humble opinion, wait a bit longer till' both are discontinued, then purchase both. Multiplatform owning is never a bad thing.

If you are not sure then buy the cheaper system.

It depends on what games you like but I guess because you play Nintendo stuff. The PS3 would be better for you because it has many single player games and a greater variety of games in general. Exclusives like Uncharted, Killzone, Littlebigplanet, Infamous and many more amongst the vast ocean of 3rd party titles.

Xbox 360 is also very good especially for mulitplayer games and got many of the games PS3 got but for me the PS3 is just that bit better for it's exclusives. Also, bare in mind PSN on PS3 is free to use while Xbox Live isn't.

Can't go wrong either way, although I think the PS3 is slightly better in almost every aspect and has a more diverse library of games.
