so what can the xbox do that the ps3 can't?

Play gears of war? That's about all I'm coming up with..

In the end, everyone will find a system that works for them... I like the controllers and functionality of my PS3 better -- it just works for me... tho I do sometimes wish I could play gears of war or Halo... but then I just load up Resistance, Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, and I don't feel so bad.

I think the only thing that would truly bother me about the xbox is having to swap DVDs for games like mass effect (or install it to the HDD)... I know the online services for PS3 aren't perfect, but there's a lot in the xbox hardware that's a compromise.

And man are they noisy.

sorry for sounding like a fanboy...
