What an age old debate, who really knows, its all personal preference, I can never convince the 360 guys that the PS3 is better and likewise with me
However, some benefits of the PS3 that were mentioned earlier
Free Online, yea, its cheap to get online anyways but it is free on the PS3
Blu Ray Player, assuming you already have a 1080p tv this is a huge bonus for you, blu rays are the fucking shit
I'd say dont get a wii, a lot of my friends who have got them have regretted it because of the controller scheme and lack of games, that will change with time though, it is the most fun system to play with people though
Personally, I dont mind the 360 controllers at all, they are easy to get accustom to so im throwing that debate right out the window
Its fact though that more 360s break down than PS3's, its not like people make it up, they have a higher fail rate every single one of my friends who own one has had the ring of death
So, its up to you
