1. PS3 controllers have built in rechargeable batteries that recharge right off the PS3. Xbox always needs batteries or you have to buy rechargeable.
2. My PS3 accepts 3 different types of external memory, mine is older has a built in 80gig harddrive.
3. Plays blu rays without buying additional accessories
4. PS3 online is free, never really had any issues??
5. When I traded my Xbox games I ended up basically buying the very same titles in PS3, I noticed instantly the PS3 games played much smoother and didn’t stop momentarily and load were the very same Xbox game had to load, also noticed in first person shooters the characters moved mush smoother and didn’t get snagged on items you couldn’t see.
6. PS3 is more like a PC- can use a web browser -download games and saves right to it. I haven’t even explored half the crap on it.
7. Also my Xbox Halo edition didn’t have any USB hooks up on component video.

#1 -False, they make rechargable battery packs that charge off the Xbox or USB (Only thing I ever use).
#4 -PS3 online is total garbage compared to xbox live (You get what youpay for in this case) and you have no voice communication. There leader boards all all hacked and they have little quality control or maintenance.
#5 -I played PS3 and Xbox and can not tell a difference in graphics or motions.
Xbox is my competitive gaming system of choice, the Blue Ray player is the only advantage that PS3 has but for me I wouldn't watch blue rays on my gaming TV anyways. I also prefer the Xbox controllers, I do not like having buttons called Square, Triangle, Circle, Etc...
This is like asking which is better, iPhone or Android.

That was a common problem about 8 years ago, seldom any issues anymore.

I disagree, the PS controllers are slimmer but not more "ergonomic", in fact PS controllers have been pretty much the same for every system and Xbox has done tons of work to make a more ergonomic controller although a couple of their designs faced total failure. Ps3 is like holding two flat ice cream cones.
