Perfect Timing :/

[merro]

Not trying to be a Fan Boy here, i am past that.
Go for a PS3, the Slim is releasing now in september.
We all know that the PS3 still has some things lacking, like party chat and so on, but the ROD was something that kept me from buying a XBox360.
Anyway we all know that graphics are bout the same on both platforms, so i would go with the console which
1; runs (hopefully) stable without breaking down (I still have the first generation PS3 from launch-never had any problems)

2; offers games that i prefer playing (matter of your personal taste, the PS3 offers more for me personally in the future)

Good luck with your decision!
