Out of Pod Experience

I'd always suggest a PC over anything else, but I really do like my PS3...mainly for the games. Dust, Uncharted, GT5, Resistance, etc. I bought mine second hand from a friend who was selling it. Haven't had a problem yet. PS3 hardware is a bit better than Xbox but not by far.

It all depends on what you want as far as games go. PSN is free and most of the games I really want to play are either exclusively for PS3 or available on both consoles. Also a blue ray player is a bonus. Get a PS3 slim and buy a 5 euro cooling system fan to go underneath it and you'll never have to worry about anything.
