The PS3 should beat them all in terms of games and quality. The thing that lets it down is the stupid price tag. £400 is a rip off whichever way you look at it. When you look at the current finacial state of the average citizen in the UK or US asking them for that is far too much. It would be pushing it to go over £200 so £400 ($600) is insane. Of course it'll be okay in Japan because they have far more money then everyone else.
This high price is the thing that gives Microsoft a chance in hell. It also gives Nintendo more of a chance but how Nintendo do will rest a lot with the success or failure of this new controller which I have to say Im skeptical about.

I am not a fan of this nintendo controller either, i believe it will be a flop, there are some people out there me included who have been looking for a new grasp on a console but the nintendo tried and failed miserably with this robust controller.
I am also hesitant to "waste" £400 on the PS3, even if i had that much money spare i would spend it on clothes or something else more usefull, £200 i might consider it but i still will wait until they are cheaper to buy.
