Here are a few points that I haven't seen mentioned yet.
If you're looking into buying a PS3, it might be worth it to you to hunt down an older 60 or 80 gig one, as those are backwards compatible with PS2 and PS1 games. If you like playing older games as well as the new ones, you'll have access to the best games released for any system in the last 15 years. And they're dirt cheap as well. I just picked up a used copy of The Getaway on PS2 for $2 at a local Gamestop. On the downside, these rare PS3s will be more expensive, even used. It just depends on whether or not it's worth it to you. The Xbox360 is backwards compatible with older Xbox games as well, but Microsoft didn't have a very strong showing in the games department until the 360, in my opinion.
As far as downloadable games go, the PS3 is the only system that has Fat Princess, which you want. On the other hand, XBLA is an easier platform to develop for, and as a result, you end up with a ton of quality indie games that you don't get on PSN. That isn't to say that the selection of PSN games is subpar, though. They still have a number of good ones, including Fat Princess after all. If you're into online multiplayer, more people own Xboxes, and so you'll find more people to play with online. The downside is that you have to pay a subsciption fee, whereas it's free on the Playstation.
Personally, I'm avoiding Xbox products like the plague, just because I'm cheap, and I can't afford to replace it if it breaks (and they usually do).
