i am leaning towards the ps3 because the low-end one which is i think 500 soemthing CDN has a bigger HDD (30 Gigs compared to the Full 360's 20 gig) and 7 player wireless connectivity (compared to 360's four player) also, if you are looking to invest in a next gen media player (blu-ray or HD DVD) the core PS3 has a built in blu ray player while 360's HD DVD will be an add-on drive. But it really depends on the games. GTA4 is a 360 exlusive..gears of war, and Halo 3 are all sure to be best sellers, and these titles are definately going to help microsoft move consoles. And the ps3 already has Final Fantasy XIII announced as an exclusive along with the contraversial KillZone2 and Metal Gear solid 4. So the best thing to do...is jus wait...maybe till next holiday season and then see ...what interests you , what is good. Also the price will drop majorly and maybe you can get both
also...anybody interested in the Nintendo Wii?
