  I use it as my home media centre, - i have the 320gb version so I store my downloaded music and movies on it, run my love film subscription and stream my iplayer, itv player etc through it in HD. I also have a 1 TB expansion for anything else, - I store my game saves on the web, and enjoy the free games every month. I watch Blu Ray often so it gets used a lot
  
  But Im a gamer by heart but Im not a big fan of the FPS's so the likes of Halo etc dont interest me a lot. (though I have completed them) I find the XMB easier to work with (and it interacts with my TV).
  
  I do enjoy the exclusives that have come out (infamous, REsistance, Uncharted etc) but its not my no.1 reason for using it, - Also I detest the idea of having to pay for membership of the xbox live.
  
  on a side note, the PS3 is just so much cooler than the xbox now, The Xbox brand is kind of like the hoodie, as apposed to the business suit of the PS3.

  same here, i mean there's not really much of a difference between the two consoles anymore other than the games available. yes the ps3 has a bluray player but i don't really take that into consideration. and the 360 is no longer unreliable, unless you still own or buy second hand one of the very first ones.
  
  and from what i've heard the ps3's on-line service is slowly catching upto the 360's and apparently the constant updates to firmware and games that you can't decline downloading aren't as bad on the ps3 anymore, so the only reason i can really think of for prefering one other the other (other than being a silly fan boy) is just which set of games you like the most.
  
  i will admit i would like to have a go on little big plannet as it does seem fun, but the vast majority of games that i prefer are on 360, hence why i have one, plus the majority of my friends have 360's

  i can understand the love for a pc, as i mentioned i used to game a lot on my pc, and still have a more than capable pc rig, but i think it just comes down to what control method suits you best, and i've always felt more at home with a controller over keyboard and mouse

  Ps3 for me, and i also own a psp,
  never really felt the urge to buy an xbox and i find Wii to be very gimmicky, and personally i`ve never had problems with the ps3`s online service.

  I`ll give you that they don`t release as many games on psp. but there are some quality games that i play alot,
  for example the God of war prequel games are great, but then God of war are generally among my favourite games every playstation they release a new edition for.

  see i never got into god of war, as i didn't own a ps2 at any point. again the thing this thread keeps coming back to is the only real thing to differentiate the systems is which exclusive games you like the most

  Basically yeah, i`ve just always been more interested in the exclusives for ps3 as compared to the xbox exclusives.
