Xbox 360 Vs. PS3

One of the biggest questions in the video gaming world today is: Which is better? The Xbox 360 or the PS3? I own both, and I will let you know the low-down on them.
I will give you a few important aspects to both consoles:
Graphics: To tell you the truth, there is not much difference between the two graphics. Microsoft's ATI Graphics and Sony's Nvidia Graphics both match up to be about the same. Die-hard fans will always say that the system they love has better graphics, but after all of that technical nonsense, they are about the same.
Memory: The PS3 wins in this category. You can buy them in 20, 60, or 80GB models. The Xbox 360 Premium only has the choice of 20GB, but the Xbox Elite has 120GB.
Game Selection: Up until now, the Xbox is winning in this category. It has been out longer, which means a much larger variety of games. They also have games down to $20 and $30 because they have been out for awhile. The PS3 has games at $40+, but it does have some very unique games that you can only play on it. These include: MLB The Show, Haze, Jack & Daxter, and many others.
Look/Sound: I would have to say that the PS3 wins in this category as well. The shiny black with chrome trim looks amazing, while the Xbox is a mere white box. The PS3 also makes a lot less noise than the 360.
Controller: The Xbox wins by a longshot in this category. The controller for Xbox is a lot more comfortable and easy to use. You never get hand cramps, and it just feels normal to have it in your hand. The PS3 controller doesn't feel all that bad, but it is nowhere near the comfort of Xbox's controller.
Life: The PS3 wins this category. There have been rare problems with system failure. With the 360, there can be sever heating (the three red rings will happen), and your system won't work anymroe. Also, if your Xbox is tipped a little while in the verticle position, the game can be scratched to pieces. Believe me, I've had it happen.
Online: Although both are fun to play on, the Xbox is a far leader. Xbox Live is the most amazing online gaming service that I have ever seen. The messaging, freinds lists, videos, tv shows, demos, achievements and everything else are amazing. I've heard rumors about a PS3 home, however, and that it is supposed to be better than Live. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
So which system would I choose? To tell the truch, I like both. They're both packed with everything you need in a gaming system, and I'm sure you will have a blast with either of them. I would suggest getting the system that your friends have, so you can have fun playing with them online. Also, if you've had an Xbox before, don't be afraid to try out the PS3. That also means that if you've always had a Playstation, don't be afraid to switch over to Xbox.
I hope this helped, and I would love it if you could rank this review.
Thanks!
