Please don't let this be a fanboy war, line up the facts:
PS3:
Has better hardware( Proven)
Free internet
Blu-ray
Backwards compatible
Better HD compatibility
Six axis
PS Move
XBOX 360:
Pay to use internet
Better software/community
Competitive

Kinect
Now, here's to point out your stupid friend errors in your argument:
Yay lets waste $400 (($250) on a DVD player ( Lol I'm sorry but that's XBOX 360, PS3 is Blu-ray) with a playstation 1 (How is this specifically bad, you can play classics like Crash Bandicoot, if you have any taste for good games.You're stupid if you think PS3 games are worse than X360 games.) that will steal my credit cards. ( (Please don't use this, it's utterly stupid considerig the fact the FBI website was hacked. Anything can be insecure, including Live, hacking is something that can happen anywhere at any time)
