I voted PS3. Never had Xbox.

Technically it probably comes down to the games you're most likely to play and if playing on-line with friends is likely what are your friends using.

I have an xBox and have no complaints.

My friends in the Ducati community have xBox and we've all been playing SuperBike '10 live on Wed or Fri nights. The youngests player is 44. :D

i just bought a new game system a few months ago and went with the ps3 for 2 reasons 1. i dont like the feel or layout of the xbox controller, actually the only controllers i dont hate are the playstation, original nintendo and super nintendo... 2. i got the ps3 because its a blue ray player and had reviews for being a really good one at that.
like mention above it also depends if you plan to play with your friends on-line sisnce youll have to run what they have, as far as game most oif the top title are on both systems...

I am really upgrading for the boy. We battle it out on all the motorcycle games and my old PS2 (the original black version) is about shot.

you bring up a great point AJ. I will most certainly check out the controllers before buying. Having had the PS and the PS2 and playing them both for years, it would be aggravating to get used to a new controller. (it is trivial, I know)

No online play, He is 8, so we just battle for motocross titles and sickest tricks!

In that case PS2 makes the most sense. The learning curve for changing controller layouts would be a pain.

I voted PS3. Me and my 7 yr old like to play GT5 and other games. What I don't like is many of the games are no longer two player. They are single and you play online which it great for some but I would rather play against my son.

I have both. I play my PS3 more because my friends have them, Gran Turismo 5 is on PS3, it used to be the only one with built in wifi but now the new xbox has it, it has a blu ray player and you dont have to pay to play on the internet.

I vote PS3. I don't like the xbox controller and I really like that the PS3 is also a blu-ray player. Not having to pay for online play is nice too.

just got the xbox for the kids for Xmas with the Kinect (sp?) it's pretty cool. Wife bought me black ops and it's fun :rofl:
