Personally, I like the 360 over the PS3. Both consoles are good in their own way, I just like the games and the online set up on the 360 better then the PS3's. I don't care if you have to pay for it, the extra features are worth it, although I still wholeheartdly agree that Microsoft is really greedy with their content, charging me for expansions and content that is given to most Pc gamers for free. I dislike Microsoft, but I do admit that they make good products such as the 360, but the constant crap you have to put up with is frusterating.
The 360 is just the only console out there that me and all of my friends have, has the games that we all like to play (Halo3, Left 4 Dead, Shadowrun, and a variety of other games). I know many would prefer the Pc over both, and I would like to get more into Pc gaming, but I don't have the money to get a good gaming Pc or upgrade the current one I have, and I can't expect my friends to do the same thing either and would rather play with them. I still do like to play some Pc games though, the ones that my computer can run such as the Orange Box.
Plus there is one thing that console gaming will always have over Pc games: Splitscreen. Splitscreen allows for me and my friends to get together and play together, especially when some of us don't have the money to dish out for every new game. I would never be able to play Left 4 Dead with all of my friends without splitscreen. Maybe its not a big deciding factor for others, but games with Splitscreen make a huge difference for me.
