2. Yet to fulfil its potential

When you buy a PlayStation 3 you're not only getting what's out now, but what's coming further down the line. The games due this year look great, but in 2009 we could well see the games that show the real power of the PS3. Gran Turismo 5, God of War 3 and Final Fantasy XIII are huge blockbuster games, only coming to PS3 and potentially more impressive than any games we'll see on the Xbox 360 in the future.

1. Hardware quality

While none of us here at VideoGamer.com have suffered the dreaded Red Ring of Death on our Xbox 360s it's impossible to ignore. The Xbox 360 isn't nearly as reliable as it should be and this is something that the PlayStation 3 doesn't suffer from. Sure, people have reported broken PS3s but it's a small percentage. You're paying more for your PS3 but you're relatively safe in the knowledge that it won't break a few months down the line. What's more, you can hardly hear it when it's in use; something that can't be said for the Xbox 360. A Hard drive and wireless adapter can also be found in every PS3.

Do you think the PlayStation 3 needs a price cut to compete with the Xbox 360? Does it present enough of a hardware improvement over the 360 that it can continue to sell at a higher price? Let us know in the comments section below.
