I really like the DVD upscaling on PS3. This makes regular DVD's look much like Blu-Ray movies. Most of your present DVD collection will look better than ever before. Other than that, you might decide based on which system has the most exclusive game titles you prefer. I have both systems. I get classics and arcade game downloads for both systems for my grandkids to play. I've had my 360 since launch without overheating problems but it isn't used very often or for long periods of game play. Still, I will always worry about the red ring of death problem. No worries with the PS3.
