i've got both and really dont have a preference.
I much prefer the layout of the menus in the PS3 compared to the Xbox.
Xbox seems more of a community console. Although again, PSN is free and Live isn't.
Best off seeing which one has the game titles you are more likely to play and go for that one!

go with which ever your friends have imo the games aside from a few exclusives are pretty much the same avaliability now and graphics for general play etc are pretty much the same from what ive seen.
also dont you have to pay for the wireless adapter seperatly for xbox?
i have a ps3 but all my mates have xboxs and it does get annoying not having them to play with lol but i still personaly prefere the ps3 i like the controlers more (maybe since they havent really changed so they are familier lol) and i like the easy media functions of the ps3 and the menu layout
and the online play apart from a few connection losses and abit of lagg every now and then i find its not as bad as people make out..just make sure you have a decent internet connection etc
the psn store has new stuff coming to it all the time (film renting/buying, games, themes etc etc)

Having owned a PS1 and a PS2 is was set on getting a PS3 but I got a 360 for my 18th and would not think of having a PS3, mainly due to the controller tbh. People who have not played xBox properly always slate the controller but I feel it fits the hand much better than the PS controllers

you can look at that another way tho.. why buy a 360 for console gaming, and a blu-ray player for movies when you can get both in the PS3 ?

Live actually works.
Many people seem to complain about their PS3 struggling to get/dropping connection pre/midgame.

Ive heard that Live if free next year! 
PS3 is the better built console, but the Xbox has so many better games imo. Love the interface/interaction on Xbox compared to PS3.

Hows is the PS3 better built? Ive had 2Xbox's that have both suffered from disc read errors, noisy CD trays, E74/RROD error. Both were "fixed" by Microsoft and were still shite.
The one Xbox when you shuck it rattled inside.
Comparing the product to my friends PS3, the PS3 felt so much more solid and wasnt buggy one bit.
I dont see Sony having to up the warrenty on their machines..

All folks with PS3s need to think about is the 'yellow light of death', you know, the one that Sony won't fix for free.

Microsoft seem to have finally sorted the RROD issues with the new machines, sony still have issues with software to.
You pays your money and makes your choices...

Mark, just so you know, PSN is the play station network
also i have never had a problem with mine. but DID get RROD on the 360
good choice with the elite though, im pretty sure they're free of RROD so should all be good

Wow a lot of people take things to heart in here
