For most games, the difference between the graphics is a wash. Technically the PS3 is capable of better graphics, but in reality the system is hard to program for and many games are just ports of 360 games anyway. In general, buy the system that has more of the games you like.
I have both, but I end up playing the 360 more because the multiplayer voice chat is much better integrated and it typically has more of the games I want. There are exceptions ... Catherine and GT5 were great games on the PS3, but Gears of War 3 and Forza 4 are great games on the Xbox.
The controllers are somewhat polarizing. Unlike Eric, I prefer the Xbox controller -- I like the triggers better than the R2 buttons and I like the heft of the Xbox controller as well.
Find a friend with both systems (or two friends that each have a different one) and check out their games
