I have had every iteration of PlayStation.
Metal Gear Solid is what clinched it for me. I have played every iteration of that game back to the Famicom days, and I love it so much. I still have to play the newest version, I've just not had the time.
Also, the controller. I'm sorry, but I hate the clunkiness and size of the XBox controller. Also, the fact that both consoles share an X, and it is in different locations. When I play Madden against a friend who has an XBox and my quick twitch reactions take over, there is nothing more mind bendingly infuriating than trying to throw to the "X" receiver and it going to the "A" receiver, 90% of the time resulting in an interception. I don't get overly angry often, but that is a case where pride is on the line and my friends might win because of this stupidity. Since the PS controller predates the Xbox controller, the blame lies squarely with Microsoft.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
