The Nin Rev controller was quite surprising first time. Nintendo always used to use normal style controllers (buttons left and right. you know) now they bring in something completely new to the table.

PS3 got LIVE?

Alright so they have something like Xbox Live. And you say it's 2x more powerful than the Xbox 360. Well in terms of teraflops yes it is more powerful (although not quite 2x):


However, the PS3's GPU is slightly less powerful than the 360's GPU:


The Xbox 360 also has way more general processing power:


And for system bandwidth, the Xbox 360 totally beats the PS3 to the ground:


Conclusion
When you break down the numbers, Xbox 360 has provably more performance than PS3. Keep in mind that Sony has a track record of over promising and under delivering on technical performance. The truth is that both systems pack a lot of power for high definition games and entertainment.

However, hardware performance, while important, is only a third of the puzzle. Xbox 360 is a fusion of hardware, software and services. Without the software and services to power it, even the most powerful hardware becomes inconsequential. Xbox 360 games-by leveraging cutting-edge hardware, software, and services-will outperform the PlayStation 3.

Solid evidence Xbox 360 > PS3

Also, Sony only claimed they're gonna have something similar to Live. But we don't know anything about this. Nothing at all. On the other hand Microsoft already has it's online service up and running for a few years now. They definitely have more experience with it and also keep in mind that they are a computer software giant. We know that Live has features such as the Friends List, Xbox Live Marketplace, Private chat, Messaging, the soon to come video chat and much more. Sony will have a tough time beating Microsoft's Live service. They'll need to come up with something amazing to beat Live. There's also a chance that they'll just blatantly rip-off some of Live's features and that will be looked down upon

I'm just using the facts to see which console is "better" hardware-wise

You do know that the Killzone 2 Trailer is pre-rendered right?

Like MGS4? Which is possibly coming to Xbox 360. RE5 is already coming. FFXII is coming too.

The Xbox 360 also has killer games. Halo 3?

It's a possibility. Not a certainty. I remember the news post over at IGN. Here's the link:

MGS4 possible on Xbox 360
