Regardless of the malfunctioning, I could never buy an Xbox 360. I just don't like the majority of the games on that console. The only title that comes to mind that was long exclusive for Xbox that I wanted was Condemned, but I think that's out for PS now too. Basically the very few games I want are also on the PS3, Plus I can play PS2 games on it, which is very important to me.

I almost bought the old Xbox though, as it had a big hardrive and I could chip it and put lots of old SNES games on it.

The controllers for 360 are pretty sweet though, especially the L and R buttons. I could get used to that pretty quick. The PS3 L and R button are pretty annoying as they'll get pushed in when I put the controller on a table, messing things up.
