This should help clarify.

Every contrast I've seen graphics wise between the two machines always shows the 360 as being superior, despite the fact that you have to put two screens side by side to notice that superiority.

I love my PS3, but I suggest you don't buy either.
There will be some new consoles anytime soon, it's been quite a while since the PS3 and 360 were realeased. So buy a PS3 and 360 if the new console is there, it'll be a lot cheaper. Or wait a little longer and buy the new console

Doubt it.

You can never really be sure, but they PS3 and 360 have been around for some time, won't be long.

The rumours say late 2012.

I'd be interested to see where you heard that from, for the most part I'd heard much later then that.

With the announcement of the Xbox 360 S, Microsoft have said that they believe that the console is only mid-way through its life-cycle and will continue through 2015.[14][15][16] However, unnamed sources have claimed that Microsoft's next video game console is being slated for release as early as the 2013 holiday season.[17] Development of the system has also been implied by updates Microsoft employees have made to their resumes, which state that they were working on the next Xbox console.[18]

Though prior console generations have normally occurred in five year cycles, the transition from seventh to eighth generation units has lasted more than six years.[2] The transition is also unusual in that the prior generation's best-selling unit, the Wii, is the first to be replaced in the eighth generation.[2] Both Microsoft and Sony have stated they have begun looking at their next iteration of consoles, but consider themselves only halfway through a ten-year lifecycle for their current seventh-generation offerings.[4][5][6][7] The addition of motion controllers and camera-based controllers like Kinect and PlayStation Move are considered to have extended these systems' lifetimes.[8]

The Wii U is expected to be released this year, but no one cares about that.
