if you dont mind paying 50+ per year, the xbox will be better for you. if you want to be able to play online for free, but a slightly downgraded service, get a ps3.

i'm not sure about tennis competitions, but keep in mind the move/kinect for tennis. if the move interests you more, you may want to go with ps3 instead.

Also keep in mind that your online gameplay is going to be based on the community that the game has following it. If you are the only person who buys a tennis game, then you will have no one to play with. If you have a million people buy a tennis game, then you will have a million people to play with. The online community per game can flux based on how popular the game is and how quickly people get tired of playing that perticular game. Not to mention that your online gameplay will be affected by things like time of day, days of the week, and so on and so forth. I have never had a problem with my Playstation online gameplay and I enjoy it alot, but my brother says he likes the Xbox online better than the Playstation's. I don't know why. I never asked him. He owns both, where I do not.

i don't think there's anyone who plays tennis games online regardless of the console you get. i think you'll be fine with xbox 360. do you have any friends that has 360 or ps3? it would probably be a lot better if u buy the console where lots of your friends play

it comes down to your preference, whether you want to have a controller in your hand or not.

Someone else said it but find out what your mates have and go with that. If you have 50/50 or not many real life mates online gaming then pick which has the games that appeal to you more.

The online is somewhat better on xbox although that is subjective really.

From what you say xbox would suit you more but again go with your real life mates you'll have more fun on whichever system when playing with mates imo

Does never using the Shift or Enter key really save you all that much typing effort?

I think Xbox will be more suited for you if you intend to play just online games like COD Halo etc. If you don't mind paying the subscription fee of course.
