Sony is failing to deliver so far. There's a fairly big list of things that should have never happened but have.
- BluRay will not scale to 720p (only 480p, 1080i, and 1080p)
- Latest update has screwed up BluRay playing on many machines
- Very little software out and most of it is terrible or inferior to the 360 version
- Pricetag
- Future games are still getting more love on the 360 (ex. Virtua Tennis on 360 has online play)
- Solid games like Rainbow 6 Vegas keep getting pushed back
In the end, unless you are movie nut or theater enthusiast, there's not much reason to own a PS3 right now. 10X the game selection on the 360 and those on both system pretty much run better on the 360.
2 fairly identical machines power wise. One has a ton of games out now, one doesn't. One is $200 cheaper than the other. Not really any surprise at the moment.
