This may be true, I haven't ever looked into it, but personlly I look at the two as different beasts. Not quite apples/oranges, but definitely oranges/clementines.

The overall experience of gaming on a PC vs. a console is too different for the two to really be comparable, as you can see in the numbers of people who game on both platforms.

I don't have any real numbers to support that last part, but I'm sure you can agree that PC gamers and console gamers are, for the most part, different people and it's a minority of gamers that game on both.

Granted, if someone is a PC gamer and is looking to get into consoles to supplement their PC gaming, then maybe a PS3 is the best bet. But if they're looking to replacing their PC gaming with console gaming, I'd be hard pressed to recommend anything but the 360.

In short, maybe the PS3 is the exclusives king when it comes to consoles and PC gaming, but for console exclusivity the 360 leaves it in the dust. But then again, you already said pretty much that so I don't know what I've just written a five paragraph ramble.
