I have commented on this before and will repeat myself here.

WAITING FOR THE PS3 PURELY FROM A TECHNICAL POINT OF VIEW IS A BIG MISTAKE. I have absolutely no doubt the console will not be as impressive as Sony would like us to believe - they are shovelling the sh*t to stop people buying the 360 as they know it will severely hit their PS3 sales. They did exactly the same with the PS2 to stop people buying the Dreamcast and it ended up being a technical disappointment - the much touted 'emotion' chip turned out to be nothing but a fancy word and over-the-top bullsh*t hype. I would be very surprised if the difference between the two is more than the difference between the PS2 and the Xbox and in my opinion that isn't reason enough to wait.

Games wise, it is swings and roundabouts. For every PS3 exclusive there is a 360 one. You say GTA, I say Halo 3. I'm not that fond on either game myself but you get my point.
