Re: Pick the \"next gen\" console I should purchase
[ QUOTE ]
I'm in the same situation as the OP. One thing I haven't seen in this thread it the failure rates of the Xbox. The red ring of death. I've heard that it affects 1/3 of Xboxes. Is the PS3 more stable or does it have issues as well?

Before Daaaahawks tells you that 95% of 360's sold today will have Red Rings of Death before Tuesday, the important things to know are that newer systems are having this problem at a much lower rate, and this is the primary reason MS expanded the warranty.
I don't think PS3 has as many failure issues, but they're still certainly there to an extent. I would not let those issues affect my purchase decision too much, if at all, if I were in the market for a next-gen system right now.
