I had a PS1 and a PS2 and then bought a XBox 360 for this generation. It wasn't just that the 360 that was cheaper that made me buy it and I did not know it would be such a poor build.
I bought it because I fancied a change and with the 360 I would be able to try out some of those original XBox games I missed out on as well as try some new things.
The PS3 seemed expensive and BLU is a feature that I didn't care for. Also after 2 PS consoles, the main game lines were seeming a bit over familiar.
Looking back now, if I could make the decision again I would go for the PS3 as the shoddy nature of the 360 hardware does annoy me (stupidly noisy, dvd tray gets stuck, ridiculously over priced hard drives, occasional freezes, red ring warnings, expensive Wifi add on thing, controller poor quality dpad and one broken analogue stick ) but people have told me that the newer XBox 360s are much better build quality and quieter than the ones from a year ago.
