Could someone please help- Just want to find out which is better to buy- the Xbox 360 or PS3.. Will do a bit of gaming but would like to use it for multimedia purposes.... Thoughts? What are the pro's and cons and which console will be best?

Ultimately, they're both more or less the same. Make your decision based on which exclusives you're more interested in playing. Any other reason would be stupid.
PS3 Because you have Blu-Ray, you can also get Backwards compatibility, and you have better HD. Xbox is pirated easilyOriginally Posted by Liquorish

You're opening a can of worms there, buddy.
Here's mygaming's XBOX vs PS3 thread
Azi and Syco are both right.
PS3 has blu-ray, but crappy controls. PS3 can(could?) be an awesome linux box where xbox can connect to windows media centre.
Games are roughly the same price, but depending on which games you prefer (uncharted/god of war/gran tourismo/little big planet vs halo/fable/mass effect/forza) you'll always end up buying the console that can play the right games.
I have both. I must admit, if my PS3 didn't have bluray i'd never use it except for playing little big planet. In fact, I often don't even bother connecting it up for Bluray on my 32" LCD screen. My sig is testament to the amount of time I spent on my Xbox vs my PS3.
Xbox live is very user friendly and involving. PS3's comes across as more matured/technical.
Console Price wise you simply cannot compare the two.
What Azimuth said. Basing your choice on anything other than which games u plan on playing would be stupid. Both are equelly good media centers, except that the PS3 has the BluRay player, but that is only a plus if u have a HD TV.Could someone please help- Just want to find out which is better to buy- the Xbox 360 or PS3..

+22
The only real hardware advantage either has is the PS3's blu-ray player. That's it really. So, as Azi says, decide which games you would prefer which are only available on either PS3 or Xbox. That and your budget. The Xbox is, from what I've seen, generally a fair bit cheaper than the PS3.
What exactly is Blu-ray Backwards compatability?
/Klaps Syco for confusing the nubie.
Blu-ray is HD movies. U know.
Backwards Compatability is playing PS2 games on a PS3... which you, AFAIK, cant do anymore.
Okay- thanks. That makes sense...
