Going by past MGS games, it’s more likely a MGS4: Substance game will be released on the PS3 and Xbox360 a year to 18 months after the PS3 original.

If you dont already own a 360 or PS3, then it's getting there for sure. Saw on HotUKDeals the other day you can buy the new basic PS3 (killing the BC is a stupid move imo fwiw) with Fifa 08 I think for £299. Of course if Blueray is important to you then decision made, but purely for gaming? Dunno really. The Xbox has the games catalogue at the moment, and arguably the better online service - but that service comes at a cost, and the games stack for PS3 will only go up, and they're doing good things with PS3/PSP interoperability.
I'd still argue it's a little too soon I think. Next price drop after christmas, hopefully when Home is out, would be a good time to do it I think. Of course, already owning a 360 I cant see myself switching, but for those yet to take the plunge I'd say either wait or buy a 360 Elite.

I'm looking at one of the consoles for use over xmas. The PS3 looked good with resistance when I saw that being demo'd. The main issue is the lack of good games on it. Granted there are a few, but nothing compared to the xbox 360. The release of the console wasn't a surprise to the developers, simply where are the games?
I'm looking at the xbox 360 elite but the ps3 has until xmas to tell me otherwise. Another reason is everyone on here has xbox 360's |

The only titles on the Xbox360 that have caught my eye are Dead Rising and Beautiful Katamari, whilst Halo is a good game it is terribly over-rated.
Sony will be getting my money at some point with the PS3.

I would always go for an Xbox360 first purely through the strength not only of its exclusives, but also the strength of its ported games.

Each to their own I guess, but I don't see what the PS3 currently has that isn't bettered on the Xbox 360.
