360, for pretty much every reason mentioned here. I'll even wait a bit if I know the 360 version will come later (Haze, hopefully MGS4, i think even UT3).

XBOX for regular games, except in the case of unreal tourny 4. PS3 has mouse and keyboard right?
PS3 for dual platform downloadable games. PS3 just handles multiple consoles better than 360. Yes, I have 2 360s and 2 PS3s With a 360 you have to recover and download your live account everytime you want to play a downloaded game. Or you have to carry a memory card with your live account on it.

Right now I'd probably stick to 360 versions.. but that could change once developers start getting the hang of 1080p/60FPS on the PS3 as opposed to the 720p/30FPS on the Xbox 360. I'm not gaga over achievements (<- that's a lie) and I'm only minimally interested in multi-player. The controller is a road block though, I was going back and forth last night downloading some demos and doing the PS3's system update.. the rumors are true, the dated dual shock design is doodoo.

PS3 only games will most likely get a purchase from me. I own Resistance. I was set to purchase the newest Ratchet & Clank but lucked out getting copy to review. I had planned on purchasing my system just to play Lair until I read it got pretty bad reviews. I still bought the system, but I don't have many games. I wanted to get it before they removed the ability to play PS2 games as I still had a bunch of those sitting around.
And to answer your original criticism, I own the following:
- 360
- Wii
- PS3
- PSP
- DS
So, I think I am accurately describing my preference with no bias at all or being a fanboy of only one system.
