In general, I try to avoid getting into arguments between PS3 and Xbox, but in this case I simply can't help myself and strongly recommend that you get PS3. Judge for yourself: a user-friendly interface, a high-quality Blu-ray drive, a free online gaming service, a web browser, Wi-Fi connectivity, the option to connect up to seven (!) gamepads, enjoyable play with other people, quality exclusives, and solid visuals — this console has everything a gamer could want. In addition, bring a copy of Mortal Kombat for you and your companions to enjoy together; you won't be sorry you did.
