    Just look at the games for both systems. I personally prefer the PS3 because Sony's exclusives are more appealing to me than Microsoft's.

    I prefer the PS3, but that is definitively not my reason, nor anyone else's possibly.

    no I want sony fans to give me some reasons"
    well i'm not necessarily a "Sony fan," but i do enjoy playing my PS3 more than any of the other consoles (i have all 3 and both portables, but most barely get any use because of my PS3.) Microsoft ticked me off enough to make me purchase a PS3 because frankly, their system is not reliable. my 360 broke on me 5 times in a little less than 2 years. i know that part of this is just bad luck, but out of the 8 people i know who own 360s, only 2 of them are on their first. microsoft tries to counter this by putting out a lot of games. gears 2 looks fantastic, and fable 2 looks good, but in my opinion Sony's console has a lot more going for it in this holiday season and in Q1 2009.
    360 has:
    Banjo Kazooie, Fable 2, Gears 2, Tales of Vesperia, and the timed exclusive Last Remnant. i'm pretty sure those are the only exclusives worth mentioning for end of Q3/Q4 this year.
    PS3 has:
    Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2, Littlebigplanet, Valkyria Chronicles, and SOCOM. these games are uniformly looking to be better than the 360's games in MY OPINION (with the exception of SOCOM, which kinda sucks.) plus, the online play is free and not that much worse than 360's, the console is very reliable, the controllers all wireless, and more.
    to answer your question, yes, motorstorm is fun. the sequel has a demo out on the PSN, and it is even better. it's pure entertainment and one of the best racing games i've played. you may also want to check out wipeout hd, another great racing game exclusive to the PS3 at a budget price.

    "In before fanboyism causes thread to be locked. Let me be honest with you I have a ps3 and a wii. OK I think that if you have a hi-def tv and enjoy bluray movies (or could see yourself buying them) get a ps3. Also look into which console has exclusives that you absolutely must have and take that into consideration but I believe that both consoles are somewhat balanced and you will have a blast with either of them! And last and perhaps most importantly if you have lots of friends with consoles see which console the majority of the ones you would liek to play with own (its important to think of only the ones that actually play and you like), however take into account that the 360 will take 50 dollars off you per year.

    If you need some advantages in list form here they are (choose which matter to you)

    PS3
    • Better graphics
    • Bluray drive
    • Big Hard drive
    • Incredibly quirky/original PSN games
    • FF, MGS4, JRPGs

    X360
    • Better online
    • A unified voice chat and comfortable message system that allows for more socializing
    • Western shooters
    • Halo
    "

    well i think the in game xmb kind of evens out the message system, its not as good but its still good for what you pay(free)
    though, most games dont use the ps3 capabilities in graphics but those few like MGS or Killzone look amazing, and the ps3 has plenty of shooters, like resistance, killzone, socom and all the multiplat stuff.

    ow and Little big plannet.

    i think thats covers it though
