Yeah, no kidding. Sure, Xbox may be the better choice in terms of lineup (though I'm personally not impressed by any of their exclusives other than Bioshock[which is now coming to PS3]) but the PS3 is unarguably the better system.
When I made the console choice a year or so ago I came inches away from getting an Xbox. I thought, MGS4 and FFXIII won't be out for so long, who cares? However, I didn't fall prey to my impulses and got the PS3. All of the games I have been interested in were released on both systems and I finally did get to spend some quality time with MGS4.
I had always worried if I'd regret my PS3 decision and it has been nothing but more and more enjoyment. Its awesome being able to download movies from the PSN store onto my PS3, and then watch them on my PSP anywhere I go w/wi-fi internet by syncing it to my PS3. Home is still coming. Blu-Ray has continued to amaze me and the system itself is immensely powerful; who's power hasn't even been fully tapped into yet. Great investment. It really is.
No disrespect to Xbox owners or fans but the PS3 is a great system.
