I grew up on Nintendo, PS1 and PS2, but I never got PS3, instead getting the original xbox and 360 after. Since then I've been hooked on the media capabilities Microsoft had to offer. I heard you couldn't be in a "party" with friends unless you were playing the same game with PS3, and I was a huge Halo junkie. I also liked the controller, which was oddly satisfying the way it fills my hand without being heavy. To this day I've never played past 2nd generation Playstation, but I look forward to eventually trying new Metal Gear Solids, Ratchet and Clanks, and Jax and Daxters.
