Heres my 2 cents. When I decided I wanted a ps3 last year the whole friends thing was never an issue, my friends are about equal that have a ps3 or xbox, so who has what never was an issue with me.
FPS shooters don't appeal to as much anymore, so halo isn't a draw for me. The games on ps3 really appealed to me. I loved playing motorstorm at my friends and in the store. I love gran turismo. RE5 is cool, thats on xbox360 as well though. Haven't checked out MGS4 yet.
The games appealed to me more and I really wanted a blu ray player. I love watching movies in 1080P on 40" sony in surround sound. I love the home theater experience. If HD Dvd would have won, I prolly would have considered xbox more. Also, I didnt want to have to pay for xbox live. I dont know if its better or not, but im content with the psn network. No lags really on madden or disconnects, it keeps track of every game you ever played online who you played etc stuff like that.
And one more thing, being in college and working trying to play a game online with my friends be it madden or cod or motorstorm is kinda harder. Your young though and still in HS so getting together online is prolly still easier.
Ask yourself this: Why did you originally get wii when all your friends were getting 360s?
