PS3 has PS1 gaming backwards compatibility where as 360 will play 360 games ONLY!! PS3 is a free online gaming subscription (as long as you have internet) although it does have the tendancy to lag but I've not had problems with that for a while... Also PS3 has Blu-Ray so Blu-Ray DVD's work on it...
Xbox 360 has top notch online gaming play with little to no lagging but does require (around) a £30 subscription fee a year.
PS3 does have the PS1 backwards comp, but only on the 60 gb version, which i was told is very unstable.
There are PS1 games on the PS store granted, but unless you get the 60 gb version you have to buy them in the store.
