maybe ps3 will load abit faster la and less risk of having hardware problem (which i feel it  depends on your luck. i use my xbox 3 years+ till today still kicking).. and more functions like watching bluray and stuff.. but Gaming graphic and texture wise, NO DIFFERENCE! what ps3 can do Xbox oso can do at a cheaper price! for me, I will buy Xbox games if that game are multiplatform. I will buy PS3 games, if its exclusive like mgs4, gow3 games like that... i rather be a smart consumer then a fanboy..
