I would rather think PS3 is better as it is more scalable and future-proof w/ upgradable firmware. Do you like to play games in the long run? By looking at the comparison chart at the secret home theater, the PS3 was reviewed when it first came out with original firmware which was not allowing DVD to upscale to 1080p. However, with the latest original firmware, PS3 can do that and even more with DiVX and xVID. Plus, who knows you can even watch downloaded HD contents in the future with the PS3? So, my point is PS3 is a better choice for a better all-around entertainer, unless you are looking for something specific. My .02.
