Pros: Very well built piece of machinery, runs very quiet, no batteries needed for controller ( i hate the 360 for this), built in Wi-Fi and Bluray is awesome!! (the clunky add-ons on the 360 make it look like one of those cheesy import tuner cars that are falling apart but have a expensive wheels and exhaust). Some sweet exclusive games: Rathcet, Drakes, MSG4, Resistance, and new Moto Storm.

Cons: firends list not so functional, playstation store is a joke compared to live marketplace, I really like downloading random tv shows. NO Achievements, I just beat ratchet and clank and kept waiting for a beep when I beat a boss. I am not an achievment whore, but its nice to be rewarded.The trophy thing sounds korny. No support for accessing media from PC.

Conclusion: They both have their ups and downs, if your a gamer you need both.

Did you try looking in the xmb for the media sharing function.

PC-PS3 media sharing which he is wrong about because it's right there in the media servers. Glad you sorta like it and Ratchet does have some achievements it has skill points which are practically the same although most of your problems will be fixed by June 10th.

I personally like online gaming best, so I like my Xbox 360 more as of right now... but my PS3 is probably going to change my mind with the blockbuster titles it has coming out 2008-2009.

Pretty much everything from the "Cons" list will be fixed very soon. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!

I hope they get it squared away, if they can add live functionality and keep it free, its a no brainer.
