This is a good Apple style commercial rip off for a PS3 vs. Wii. I think that the two systems are in different leagues, but I think the Xbox will win against the PS3 in the "serious gamer" league. I think Sony has been shooting themselves in the foot a whole lot with the PS3, and I'm happy about it. The Xbox is the only thing Microsoft I will endorse. I liked the first Xbox much more than the PS2 (I only got a PS2 to play Katamari Damacy and SOCOM), and the 360 so far is pretty slick. The little interaction I had with the PS3 was lackluster, at best. Their price point is ridiculous, the lack of vibration in the controllers is a huge step back, the added motion control is a silly vie at the Wii market, the graphics I have seen haven't been any better than the 360 (worse in some cases), the 5.1 surround sound was very buggy (this was prelaunch, so it's probably fixed now, but Xbox has had in game 5.1 supported since the first version!), and Sony's reliance on the emergence of a new media format, in this case Blu-Ray, is asinine. All I gotta say on my last point is BETA Max. Oh, and MiniDisc. Oh yea, and UMD. Invalid video URL.
Update: Apprently if a video is flagged for adult content you can't post it into LiveJournal. Mind you, this video is flagged because it has a woman clad in a skimpy bikini type outfit and slaps her own ass. Seems a bit ridiculous, but here is the URL so you can view it:
