i know when they first came out this was a never ending argument, but now that they have been out for awhile i wanted to come back and see if anything has changed.
which do you prefer?
why do you like one over the other?
what are the strong points of each?
what sucks about them?
im getting one for Christmas and i want to make the right decision.

XBox 360 FTW.
To me, the 360 has more, better games; and most of all the support. PS3 is the choice if your looking for a high quality (Blu Ray) DVD player. I personally dont buy into the HD DVD's yet; so the choice was 360 for game support and XBox live.
What sucks about them? You get one... and want the other. I dont toally hate the PS3, just i dont watch HD DVD's, and the 360 had more games i wanted to play at the time. One of these days i'll pick up a PS3, but im still getting a wii first ^_^

I have one of the old square PS1s, a PS2, and PS3. I'm biased, but I say go with the PS3. Free online service, blu-ray player, and great games. Get the 80gb version if you want to play PS2 games on it though.

Xbox 360 for a cheap console and the best online experience.
PS3 for best graphics and blu-ray.

I personally have an Xbox360 and I would say just go ahead and get the PS3 if you're not worried about the money.

Like I said, xbox 360 has the best online experience, other than that it's all about exclusive games. PS3 is definitely superior if you don't have plans for exclusive 360 games or online.

well I'm all about great games, graphics, and on line experience. i can give a shit about blu-ray.
it looks like I'm going with the XBOX. is the XBOX live the best?
the only thing i don't like about the XBOX is the controller.

Xbox live i the best online experience, no doubt, and I too am very fond of the controller.
Do yourself a favor, get the longest warranty you can get on it, they tend to overheat easily, I've already gone through two myself, but the newer ones are better I believe.

i have an xbox and its pretty sweet. the shitty thing is that you have to pay $$$ to play online. I don't think you have to do that with the ps3.

PS3 for the win. hands down (well, not really hands down... but no real contest IMO).
Things I (personally) don't like about the Xbox: -Pay for xbox live -they break down frequently (my two friends who own one have gone through a total of 5 between them, they get the "red light of death" where the system just dies). Although, when they do break down, xbox will just send you a new one.
Things I love about the PS3: -BluRay (HD is dead) -graphics = great -online is just fine (perhaps not up to par with xbox live, but I havent had any problems/compliants about it) -more hard drive space than i know what to do with -I personally like the controller better. The off-level joysticks on the xbox controller drive me batty.
So, in my opinion, it's ps3 handsdown... but I have alwyas been a playstation loyalist.
