PS3

Blue ray disc!
yah but PS3 online is hackish, isnt it? I mean like a lot.
Just look at the xbox vs ps3 thread to decide, but some views might be more radical towars 1 side than just throwing out comparisons.
I'd say Xbox 360, not because I have an Xbox, but the point there are more "exclusive" games at your disposal. Gears of War and Halo Series with upcoming release of a new Halo game (forgot the name), Forza 2/3, Crackdown, Fable and more. It is also cheaper, not sure if that makes a difference, but extra $60 - $100 means a new game too.
If you have or used Live, that is a plus because it's more popular than PSN. I have played COD on PS2 and ended up waiting 10 minutes for a game. This might have changed, but I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy Xbox Live over PSN.
And with Blu-Ray, there is NO difference with DVDs, UNLESS you have a full HD (1080i) Plasma/LCD TV and HDMI from PS3 to TV. And really, there are those Panasonic promotions where you get a free Blu-Ray player with a full HD TV purchase.
Don't forget that having free PSN means it will be weaker and therefore be more susceptible to hacking.
Being Free has nothing to do with that. They just need to upgrade security plain and simple. Look at Steam. Steam's security is out of this world yet they don't make you pay for it. The PS3 is only in the hacking news because hackers with vendettas are making a point to hack PSN. If they wanted to hack xbox live they would just like they have in the past.
So no bro, it has nothing to do with being a pay service or not.
Sony is getting hacked every day it seems. Go for the Xbox 360 with Kinect. Kinect is going to eventually be awesome.
