First off no one wins! All consoles have there better parts and there worst parts.

1. Xbox LIVE has the best community ever! Everyone has mics and its just a push of a button to invite and you can have private chat parties. PS3 you have to be in the game and the person you want to invite has to be in game as well. (With the exception of BF games.)
2. PS3 has web browser, mouse, keyboard, and printer compatability. Unlike Xbox 360.
3. Xbox 360 has many gamer pics and new ones that come out all the time. PS3 do not.
4. PS3 is FREE! Xbox 360 cost money.
5. 360 is slow in many ways, takes for ever to boot, and lags a lot more then PS3. PS3 is only slow when your game is slow. And online servers are able to hold many causing not much lag.
6. Xbox 360 will have Natal which I doubt will work right on time, and PS3 will have motion sensored controllers which looks like it will work on time.

Thats about all I got.

But like I said all consoles have there good side and there bad side. So if your a fanboy don't post in here!

But personally I like PS3 better because of Killzone 2, MAG, SOCOM, MGS4, and others and because I like the features it holds now and for the future. But I still love 360.

Great topic, but I'd like to elaborate or add to your post.

360:
Cross game chat and game invites
Party system which allows members playing the same game to move in and out of games together
Achievements and online support built into every game
No mandatory installs
In game soundtracks for all games
Netflix support
Facebook support
Meaningful updates
Twitter support
Online Radio(Last FM)
More events/spotlights/contests ie. Cliffy B on 1 vs 100, Game with music stars, Major Nelson reporting from Iraq
No built in wifi
Wireless Media Center/PC streaming
Avatar support(Mii ripoff)
HD cables in the box.

PS3:
Blu Ray playback
AVCHD support(Most fanboys don't even know this. I do because of my Sony HD camcorder)
Built in wifi
Mandatory installs
Hit and miss trophy support
Hit and miss ingame soundtracks
Wireless PC connectivity(MUCH harder to set up)
Trophy support(achievement ripoff)
Keyboard/mouse support(What percentage of gamers actually utilize this)
Browser(Not a large % of owners use this and the PC/Mac is still king for surfing the net and dowloading pron)
Standard non HD cables in the box
In Game texting (I don't see how Sony kept a straight face when advertising that one))

I enjoy my PS3 but it's more of a media playback device while my 360 is primarily a game system with home entertainment features(Facebook, Media Center/PC streaming, Netflix, etc) Here are a few things/myths that fanboys bring up that I take issue with:

Teh BluRay disc: While the PS3 does have the capability to have disc capacities that dwarf DVD-9, what have we seen when it comes to games this gen? MGS4? That game was a movie with brief moments of gameplay(I'm a MGS fanboy who bought the MGS4 80GB just to play the game). Killzone 2? Great graphically, but an average shooter. That's 2 games one can make an arguement for this entire gen thus far. I think it's safe to say that we've seen nothing this gen that has eclipsed what is offered on the 360. As a matter of fact, multiplats look better and perform better on the 360 due to it most times being the lead development platform.

Teh 1080p!!!!: Most game this gen are 720p and upscaled to 1080p. Very few Native 1080p games. That goes for both systems. Moot.

Servers/No Lag: Complete BS. Very few games use dedicated servers and most game hosting is Peer to Peer this gen. Also, the onus on support is left to the dev so who wants the added cost of maintaining a server farm.

PS3 is more powerful: False. Both consoles are evenly matched and the games this gen have shown that. BTW, PS3 has 256MB of video memory and 256 MB of memory for games minus the bloated OS's 96MB. The 360 has 512 =MB of unified memory with the OS taking up 32 MB. I'm no engineering wiz, but the way everything works out, you won't see a huge advantage graphically on either console.

Nothing to do with cleaning. All occurred within the 1st 60 days of the June 12th MGS4 bundle launch. Had the BBY service plan. No problems since.

Doesn't make you a fanboy. It's true, PS3 has hardly any games. But the exclusive game are like 2 games. I like more games on 360 then I do PS3, but I like PS3 better.

If I were a freakish fanboy, I wouldn't be in a PS3 clan. Not sure if you have more than one console. That's just my opinion. May I have one?

I admitt that they both are good systems. Here is a list of pros and cons that I made:

Xbox 360:
+A good deal of great shooters
+Some good games of other genres
+A better online experiance
+Netflix
+512mbVideocard RAM
-Only three cores
-55.2%Fail Rate
-Red Ring of death
-No internet browser
-No Bluray
-No MAG



PS3:

+8Cores
+Great exclusives of MANY genres
+PSone classics(I do not have to pay $100+ for a copy of Final Fantasy VII :))
+No Red Ring of Death
+Only a 10.6%fail rate
+Internet browser
+BlueRay Player
+Games are on Bluray Discs which hold more and do not scratch near as easy
+Upconverting Dvd player
+Better controllers(In my opinion though it is very controversial)
-Yellow Light of Death(Not near as frequent as the Red ring of death)
-Online setup is not as good, but still very nice
-Half the RAM as Xbox 360



I am not biased I owned both twice, but Ii prefer the PS3, because it does not fail as often, Has more games of my tast(MGS4, MAG, Uncharted 1&2, and others), is a blueray player, and I do not have to wait for my computer to load up to look up one little thing on the internet.


BTW: In case you were wondering I had my PSN ID: RogueAssassin111 long before I decide to join the RogueAssassins.
