Don't have time to read through...I gotta get to work. But I'll chime in...I own both a PS3, XBOX360. I'm also a crazy PC gamer. I think, objectively, most will understand the 360 is a better gaming console, and most multplatform games the 360 outsells because of, among other things, the multiplayer support is better. Way back when Idisliked the "for pay" online model. But comparing it to PSN, it's really no contest. XBox live >>>> PSN. Games plaing right now include the immeasurably awesome Uncharted3 (PS3), Brutal Legend (multiplatform--but bought for 360), and I picked up Red Faction Guerilla for the PC for cheap (and it connects and gives me XBox Live achievement points!).

But this entire argument as of right now ends with one title:

FORZA3

I have played it more than slept in the last two days. If you even have an inkling of like for cars at all...it's gaming nirvana. It'll accomodate sim racers (yes, I have a cockpit and working clutch pedal at home) all the way to arcade racers and twitch gamers. It scales.
