Which I have to imagine would be a big deal of why some are leaning either way is the mp factor for MW2 is the free online for the PS3 being a huge part of it.
As for AC2, that game seems to be closely tied to the PS3 that I've barely heard or seen anything of that connected to the 360 (sort of like MW2 seems to be greatly linked to the 360).

I'm a PS3 owner, but I'll be getting this for PC. The only COD i have for a console is the Big Red One.

And even I can see the recent allure of PS3 over 360.
Granted, I love my 360 much more #consolewars

In the case of MW2? Probably just the free online thing. It certainly isn't marketing since MW2 is pretty much a 360 game.
As for the people talking about mic users? I don't really care. After 15 years of PC gaming I'd rather just take the silence with the occasional opportunity of running into same cool guys or girls playing. By all accounts given it sounds like most of the people that trumpet Live end up only playing on mic with friends anyways. #consolewars

As I have an early 360, no HDMI and a 20GB hard drive (too expensive to buy a new one). It sounds like an airplane is taking of every time I play a game. I don't pay for online gameplay.
It's a good system, but the PS3 is a far easier and relaxing system for me due to those faults.
I can leave the HDMI in my tele at all times for PS3. No switching out between Cables like that of Xbox 360 and Wii.
Hard drive is cheap and easy to replace if I need to get more.
No huge loud sound distracting from the game just so the system can work.
Free online play, in Borderlands and Demon's Souls this is great.
No need to replace batteries when the controller is near death. Just plug in the USB from my PC or laptop and power from that, recharge and I keep playing.
Both are great systems, but these days it's just far better for me on PS3 then Xbox 360. Good thing for those Xbox 360 only games, XBLA, and early titles I have before I got my PS3. #consolewars

I also hate the DS3 for the fact you can't replace the battery. Replacing batteries > replacing entire controllers. I loath electronics with built in batteries.
Other than that, the PS3's free PSN is a massive advantage and a large part of the reason I buy multiplat MP games on the PS3. Though I do prefer the 360's controller, I find that the DS3 works just as well for me with CoD4. Good control schemes FTW. <3
Also, I hate the fact the PS3 doesn't have a VGA adapter. For that reason I tend to prefer the 360. Though thankfully I have an HDTV now. #consolewars

So in my case it wasn't able to work.
Lack of VGA for PS3 does suck, but with the move of Monitors to HDMI it's not such a huge loss to me. #consolewars

Not surprising it wont work with the Mac, though. =P
My HDTV is in the living room and I don't get to use it that often. Leaving only my monitors to use with my consoles, but they both only have VGA ports, so can't use them with the PS3. I do know that there are VGA cables for the PS3, but none of them are of quality, and the converters costs as much as a new monitor. =( #consolewars

I'll be picking up Assassin's Creed 2 and MW2 for 360. Honestly I hate the PS3 controller when it comes to FPS, so I don't mind paying for my online gaming.

Say it isn't so! #consolewars

Though $50 would get you a fairly decent headset that would work with your Ps3 and phone n pc. #consolewars

Reading the comments, I'm not the only one who thinks this it seems.
After one year I'd be incredibly cautious. I've seen a lot of disk drives go bad, 2 red lights, and personally had my own just stop powering on. #consolewars

I love my xbox 360 but I am sick of paying for live.
Past year I only played one game on live and that was COD4. So for a year I had to pay extra just to play one game!
The majority of average gamers only play a handful of online games and now with video adds on Live too it's just not worth it.
I will be moving to PS3 next year. #consolewars

I don't really base my decisions on graphics because it's not a fair comparison. For me, it's mostly about playability and affordability. Granted, I saved up a lot of money for both systems and if I were to lose one, I'd be just as satisfied with the other. So it's a win-win with me. #consolewars
