This one, you are going to get some biased answers to (we are called Absolute PlayStation, after all ).

All i can suggest is look at the exclusive games that are on each system and go for the one that has more of the ones you like- there is no "right for all" answer.

However, a few things to keep in mind- the PS3's online play is free while with the 360 you pay about $50 a year. Want to connect wirelessly online? The PS3 has that built in while the 360 has you buying an adapter for another $100. Movies? The PS3 plays both DVDs and Blu-Ray out of the box. The 360 will play DVDs but chose the wrong side of the high- def movie format war- you can find HD-DVD drives on discount for the 360 now that the format has been discontinued.

without a doubt you have to buy a PS3,the controler on the 360 put me off straight away plus ive allways been a fan off the playstations so i wouldnt buy anything else.

Definitely PS3!

360 = too many problems.

I agree that the 360 controller just doesn't feel right. I know there is a way to use the 360 controllers on the PS3 but not sure about the other way around.

Of the two i would honestly say go for the PS3 first. It's really up to your own gaming tastes, though- look at the games for both and decide for yourself.

It depends on what ur looking for, if you like 3d person games and rpgs deffinatly go for the ps3, but if you like first person shoters more than anything the 360 controller works a bit more naturally. It also depends on what your friends have. I have a ps3 and play it online, and theres always a lot of cool people online, but theres many times i wish i had a 360 because very few people i know in real life have a ps3 but lots have 360s.
