The PS3 is stronger
The RSX Graphical Processing Unit has been clocked at 1.8TFLOPS, a very powerful figure. It features the Cell processor which has seven cores running at 3.2GHz. In comparison, the 360 has only three cores running at 3.2GHz, and its overall performance is clocked at 1TFLOP. The PS3's GPU tops an entire 360 by itself, without bringing in its processor.
[multipage=Cheaper]
The PS3 is cheaper
Yes, cheaper. For $300, you could get a 360 with 60GB disk space, or you could get a 80GB PS3 for $400, paying only $100 extra for all those things the 360 lacks: More powerful hardware, Bluray player, integrated WiFi, free online gaming, rechargeable gamepads (thus saving batteries), and media center capabilities. With its powerful hardware, the PS3 is much more future-proof than the 360, which still works on DVDs.

The PS3 is more reliable
The machine has an integrated AC adapter, the fans are perfectly silent, it has extremely rare hardware failure issues while the 360 fails over and over with the infamous Red Ring of Death issue, and many other heating issues.
[multipage=Games]
Concerning games
the PS3 has had many exclusive blockbusters. Little Big Planet, Resistance 1/2, KillZone 2, Heavenly Sword, Metal Gear Solid 4, Valkyria Chronicles, Uncharted, and many more. I do agree on the point that the 360 also has many great games, so I'll just say that it depends on which system you feel has games that you would personally enjoy playing more.
[multipage= Features]
The PS3 does more stuff
It also functions as a Bluray player, what with Bluray winning the HD format war, this fact has its importance rising with time, as BD slowly overpowers DVD as the leading format for movies (and games!). It works as a media center, allows you to share music and videos between your HDTV and your computer.
[multipage=Sales]
Sales
The PS3 has not sold as much as the 360, nor does it have as big a community or as many games as the 360, but that's only because it was released a while after the 360. In the last two years, the PS3 has sold more units than the 360 did in its first two years of release.

It annoys me so much when people decide to make threads like this without actually researching their arguments.
1. The red lights appearing on your console is NOT a error. It's a status-message to inform you what is wrong. Very often this is something minor like the harddrive not being properly attached, or the power supply being loose.
2. Xbox 360 doesn't have more people only because it was released a year earlier. Last year, in 2010, the Xbox 360 outsold all the other consoles on the market and could title itself best selling console of 2010.
3. On the part about the PS3 functioning as a media-center, the Xbox 360 also fully does this. Just like the PS3, it allows you to share music and videos between your HDTV and your computer. Other features are ex. the ability to stream full 1080p videos directly on your Xbox 360 within a few button-presses.
4. "Stronger" isn't always better. The truth is that the PS3 is much harder and expensive to develop for compared to Xbox 360 due to it's advanced hardware. This results in many games being programmed on the Xbox, and poorly ported to the PS3. Also, just recently last month, THQ (I think it was them) went out to the media begging the manufacturers for consoles not to get any more advanced, because that would increase the price for developing and producing video games even more, and we'll end up with a massive price increase.

I feel my opinion is unbiased since I have and play both. I like the 360. I like the ps3. The things I like about the ps3 are greater than the things I like about the 360.
I also like the fact that with the ps3 I've basically been using the same controller since 1999. That makes getting familiars with games that much easier. (for me)
