For those of you who own both systems, which do you prefer?
And which one did you own first?
Do you think that owning one before the other has affected your opinion?

I bought the 360 when it first came out, loved simply just GEARS it was innovative and beautiful, but I wanted the online experience, so I got the ps3, and played online for free, unlike live...ps3 has the most value, 360 has better games, it will always be like that...
i got both and i would have to go with the ps3 for reliability and the ps3 has some pretty great games but also the xbox has some of my favs on there but to be honest i really dont kno they are both are great and i think everybody should have both if you can spend the money for it
I prefer PS3, because I have had some sort of Playstation for over 10 years now and I am used to the controls and the games on Playstation. Also it is quiter and runs better and has little bonuses like BLu-ray and on board wireless internet.
I will say at the start of this generation I was not planning on buying a 360 but I could no longer ignore its pressence in the video game industry.
I am happy to own all three systems but Playstation 3 gets by far the most play in my house.
PS3. I use it for all my gaming needs and 360 is just there if I want a exclusive. Hell im not using my 360 till alan wake and ME2 comes out and thats about it unless something els gets announced that im interested in.
I own both. I do like the 360 better overall. I had the 360 first. I don't think that plays on why I like the 360 better. I like the variety in 360 games better. I also like the 360 controller better for any genre accept fighters. PS3 is still worth owning with some awesome games that are PS3 only (MLB The Show, Infamous, etc) but if I could only have one it would be the 360 for sure.
I bought the 360 first, then two years later I bought the PS3. Reason is because of exclusive AAA games. Plus I have a feeling the PS3 will eventually, slowly but surely rise to the top. But I still love my 360. I have too many AAA games for it and it has great games still coming out.
I prefer the 360. I'll admit i haven't been giving the ps3 a fair chance but i've still been satisfied with the 360.
360 for life, until PS3 gets more games, which is probably next year.

This is interesting, so half the 360 first owners who bought PS3s now prefer their PS3?
I wonder what other factors might be at play here. Do you think that because that half of 360 owners paid more for the PS3 than they did for their 360 they prefer the PS3 now? Or do you attribute it to the PS3's games and relative reliability?
Maybe cost has somehting to do with why barely any PS3 first owners prefered the 360...

Or it could mean he doeisnt like or is interestedin most of the PS3 libary. I mean 360 has nothing I want till 2010.
Maybe he means more diversity. I know there's ps3 fans who would agree.[QUOTE="Steel-Panther"]

Well there's nothing wrong with more diversity. I remember a guy saying a couple days ago that he was thinking of getting a 360 cause the ps3 had no Fable or Mass Effect type games. I know i would personally like to see more platformers on the 360.i had three 360's....got a PS3 and i love it !!!!, there are just a few games im interested on the 360...Mass Effect 2...hum...?
i know... i'm in the same boat as you are. the only games that are only on 360 that i am looking forward to getting (like definite buys) are Mass Effect 2 and Alan Wake. that's why i keep it around.i had three 360's....got a PS3 and i love it !!!!, there are just a few games im interested on the 360...Mass Effect 2...hum...?

ahaha, right now im looking for the upcoming exclusives that may catch my attention, to see if they can justify the purchase of a 360...so far Mass Effect 2 is the only one...and maybe 2 or 3 oldies....
For me it's the other way around the 360 is best for multiplatform games and the PS3 is for it's exclusives.PS3. I use it for all my gaming needs and 360 is just there if I want a exclusive. Hell im not using my 360 till alan wake and ME2 comes out and thats about it unless something els gets announced that im interested in.

by that time i did loved it more(2006), since last gen i was an Xbox owner, but all of them were faulty so i gave up and got rid off them. Bought a PS3 (2008 ) and i love it more than the 360 :)
AND i only bought one 360...the other 2 were store replacements...so no..i only paid 400$...in the end i sold the last one(2007), and got the PS3 with that money
I bought my 360 first, and it is still the most used console. I generally prefer to use it because XBL is better than PSN (IMO), the controller is better for shooters (6AXIS is better for SF4 and FIFA) and i mostly play shooters.
I also tend to prefer the Xbox exclusives (i know some of them are on PC, lets not be pedantic) like L4D and Gears.
Multiplats also tend to get bought for the 360 (except FIFA and SF4)
