Ten reasons to wait for the PS3: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/668/668446p3.html 
And it does appear that a new Ninja Gaiden will be exclusive to the 360, but to wait for the console to be priced at $150 will be some wait, especially if you're waiting for the full package version.

Bach and other Microsoft executives, headlining a series of events that open Tokyo Game Show, will detail the company's strategy for success in Japan. More than 40 publishers in Japan, including Bandai Co. Ltd., Capcom Co. Ltd., Koei Co. Ltd., Konami Corp., Namco Ltd., Sega Corp., Square Enix Co. Ltd. and Tecmo Ltd., have pledged their support for Xbox 360, joining the ranks of the best publishers from around the world. As the ultimate canvas for game developers, Xbox 360 will inspire a new wave of innovation in gameplay, storytelling and artistry never before seen in video games.
Promising to capture the imagination of Japanese gamers, new titles and established franchises such as "Dead or Alive® 4," "Ridge Racer 6," "NINETY-NINE NIGHTS;," "Dead Rising" and "FINAL FANTASY XI" will be available on Xbox 360 in the months to come. With support for high-definition output with anti-aliasing, and Dolby 5.1 surround sound, all Xbox 360 games will deliver smooth, cinematic experiences that scream off the screen.

It kinda seems like someone at IGN was payed off by a certain Japanese Company... I wonder who that'd be.
Like I've said before, I'll buy the next generation Nintendo console simply for the Zelda franchise. I was secretly hoping they'd cave in after the GameCube and make Zelda games for Microsoft. We can dream can't we?
Anyways, I don't see anything in that article about the 360's 6 thread processor. Maybe that's because PS3 won't have one.... It was also conveniently left out that the 360 is practically a computer, It has more expandability than Grav's butthole, now that's pushing the envelope. Either way, I probably won't get either until about a year from now when I come back from the Sandbox, so it's all irrelevant to me anyway.
I'd also like for you guys to realize something. Everyone wants hundreds of titles for a system. While variety is nice, having 3rd party crap all over the shelves kinda sucks. A lot of third party shit usually sucks... and what's the point in buying twenty other first person shooters, or twenty other RPGs, when you have the best 3 to 5 on the shelf already? To top it off, what a lot of people don't realize, is that when you have "hundreds" of games, it's going to be difficult to get large online games going. You've gotta spread the fanbase out over those games. I would personally rather have a large thriving community of people who play Halo 3, than search 20 hours for a laggy game of 3 v 3 for Killzone 2. Think about it.
