better online play

XBL is easier to navigate than PSN, well before their new stupid update, i prefer the old XBL layout
more things are free on XBL, but you have to pay the yearly fee
downloads can continue after shutting down the system
recently added netflicks to XBL
play and charger kit still charges with system shut down
controller is better suited to FPS
cooling fans are loud
must have wired connection to internet or buy wireless adaptor
must buy an Elite for hdmi connections (i believe)
achievements

PS3-
smaller selection of games and most are multiplatform
personally i think it has better graphics, but that comes down to connections, tv, preference
Blu-ray
free PSN, but downloads seem to cost more
system must be on to download and charge controller
most games install onto the hard drive, its annoying at first, but cuts down on in-game loading
built-in Wi-Fi, or wired connection
hard drive is the same as a laptop hard drive, easy to upgrade space
main menu is too cluttered for my taste
i prefer the PS controller feel to the 360's

in the end, i think the ps3 is the better system, but xbox has more games and an easier to use interface

the PS3 has a built in Wi-Fi reciver?

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
