PS3 + a PC, what does that leave for the 360?

I've had my 360 about a week longer than Streeteh, my feelings are this for each:

Xbox 360
+Live -Its better than PSN let's be honest, and it's worth the £30 a year.
+Controller -I'm good with either controller, but I do prefer the 360 controller for FPS's
+Multiplatform Games -Games that appear on both systems *usually* look better on 360 and have the bonus AA.
+Price -£160 for the 60GB version is fantastic pricing, Sony should take note.
-Noise -How people watch a DVD on this thing is beyond me.
-No built in WiFi
-Stupidly priced HDD's

PS3
+Exclusive Games -The exclusives on PS3 do appeal to me more than the ones on 360, obviously this is personal choice, I will also add that exclusive titles built for the PS3 generally look better than anything else on either console.
+Built in's -Built in wireless, Blu-Ray etc. are all nice features, however you are paying for it in the price tag.
+Playstation Store -I just love what the PS Store offers, Pixeljunk games, Flower etc. to me it is better than what XBLA offers, again personal choice.
+XMB -I just love the interface of the PS3/PSP, It's clean and works well.
+Free Online -It's nice that it's free, even with Live being better for a free service it works and works well, but as above, Live is better.
-Online -as above, although it's free, Sony's online has a lot of catching up to do.
-Price -Don't think I need to say anything here, Sony NEED to lower the price.
-Multiplatform Games -most of the time multiplatform games look and run better on the 360.

Both systems have had hardware problems, maybe the 360's more so but I'd bet not by much, too many people are now having YLOD and BD Drive issues, I think the quality of both systems stinks to be honest, and I hope that next gen this is resolved.

At the end of the day, like Streeteh If I had to choose one it would be the PS3, purely for the games, I personally prefer the exclusives on PS3 over that of the 360, however I am now in the awesome situation of owning both and don't have to worry about that.
