Its nice to have both, but my PS3 doesn't get used very much. However, I got to play Uncharted 1 and 2, so I consider that one a win.

I generally like the xbox, but it is nice to have access to Uncharted, LBP, and other exclusives that should not be missed.

Not sure what F. is supposed to mean if this poll is intended for people who bought both consoles (unless you''e referring to the Wii with that option), but I voted that one because I totally should have bought a PS3 instead of an Xbox 360 when I needed to take the decision.

I bought the PS3 strictly as a Blu-Ray player. But the exclusives are awesome, so I play those a lot. Uncharted 2 is one of the best games I've ever played.

It's nice being able to play games from both sides, My PS3 is however collecting dust.

It's for everyone, so if you own just a X360 but wish you bought a PS3 and vice versa.

I don't use my PS3 at all, but since Demon's Souls is exclusive to it then I'm glad I bought the thing. 
 
Too bad Project Dark isn't exclusive because it would have gotten some more play. There are literally no games coming out for it (exclusive) that i'm excited about. Maybe the Last Guardian, but that's over a year away.

It 's nice to have the options, but I don't have the time to finish as many games as I would like on either system.

I have a PS3, but I'm starting to think the 360 would have been better for me since I spend most of my time playing online.

On the PS3, I'm glad I bought it, but I haven't had a ton of time to play games and there haven't been that many exclusives I've had to have.

It is good to have both systems for the particular games on each; I don't know Mass Effect and Alan Wake on the 360 and Uncharted, Metal Gear and WipeOut on the PS3. It has been nice to go back and forth. I do think that the 360 is definitely more social. I have more friends on the 360 and they all have headsets and are continually sending party invites or at least messages to one another.

I like it.  Old used games are cheaper on 360 and it has a grip of awesome XBLA games...  And a few exclusives I like, Mass Effect, Alan Wake, and Halo Reach...  and kind of Splinter Cell and Left 4 Dead 2... 
 
And the PS3 has a grip of great exclusives I love and few awesome PSN titles like the Pixeljunk series.
 
A lot of money to spend on gaming consoles, but it's my favorite hobby, so it makes sense to me.

Great for exclusives.  Xbox used more for multiplatform games.

I bought a 360 to stay in touch with my friends(who all had 1 before me). A PS3 mainly for the exclusives(MGS4 when I bought it). Now my purchasing order is :   I buy  multiplat games unless there is a crippling bug on 360 and fighters on PS3 since I'm not a joystick player and can't stand the 360 dpad.

The two Xbox 360's are used more than the PC/Mac for gaming, the Wii, DS, iPhone and PS3 all put together. There is no reason to continue buying Blu-ray for the PS3 with shitty load times and updates to watch commercials from a disc I just bought. I now watch more movies from iTunes, Netflix off the Xbox 360 or  Zune Marketplace. Its good to have both, but I am not using the PS3 as much as I thought I would. Owning multiple consoles does not really benefit me since my time is limited and all my friends had migrated to Xbox Live plus less problems with just wanting to get in and play.

I like having the option to play on either of the three consoles to be honest, i dont really play my PS3 or Wii anyway near as much as they deserve to be played but i guess everyone has similar issues.  When you opt to go multiformat you always end up using one as your main console even if its not intentional, mostly its my 360 i am on the most since the majority of my friends are on there.
