Okay, first, the whole "console war" thing is stupid.
Second, Bungie said a really long time ago they would love to branch out and develope games for other platforms.
Third, PS3 owners (the fanboy variety) do nothing but whine and -blam!--talk about how Xbox games suck and are garbage compared to [fill in the blank with almost any PS3 exclusive]. Having a longtime developer of an awesome Xbox exclusive series might convince them to try out another console.
In the end wouldn't it be a good thing if Bungie's PS3 dev team created something that brought more people over to the Xbox? How is it a bad thing?
I completely agree, it is stupid. I owned both for quite a while, and either one is a viable option. For me, I just have to defend the PS3 because it's a lot better than people would care to realize.

my brother has a PS3 and most of the games he has are just 1 time games maybe 2.
So tell me games that the PS3 have that are story driven becuase 360 has halo(though not as much in the past), Mass effect, Fallout,etc
Command and conquer goes to both consoles though
Alright, I didn't want to do the list thing because it seems obnoxious, but seeing as how we're having a decent conversation about it I'll go for it:
List of PS3 games that have story:
Heavy Rain - A thriller in the same light as Alan Wake. It follows several characters and their interconnecting story arcs as they search for a the "Origami Killer", a serial murderer who places origami figures on his victims. You play as each character and it's full of twists.
Mass Effect 2/3 - Yes, they're on PS3 now. These don't need introduction, and the provided interactive Graphic Novel for those that missed out on the first game is exceptionally well done.
Uncharted 1/2/3 - Probably the flagship title for the console this generation. You play as fortune hunter Nathan Drake, who will remind you a lot of Indiana Jones. Treasure hunting has kind of been uninteresting to this point (think Tomb Raider), but the quality of characters in these games is practically unrivalled and the games are really THAT good once you play them.
Fallout 3/New Vegas - These are multiplatform, you know about them.
Elder Scrolls (Oblivion/Skyrim) - Probably know about these as well.
Infamous 1/2 - You play as a courier who is mutated by a terrorist attack, giving you electrical super-powers. You're task is to save the city from the aftermath of the giant attack, all the while trying to hunt down another person who shares your same power... turns out he's yourself, from the future, with an agenda.
Agent - Alright, agent isn't out yet, but it's a PS3 exclusive developed by Rockstar... so yeah it'll be heavily story oriented.
Rockstar Games (Red Dead, GTA, LA Noire, Max Payne) All multiplatform, all story driven and great.
Bungie's Next Game - can't wait.
Portal 2 - multiplatform and definitely story driven as it is a Valve game.
Arkham Asylum/City - you know of these.
Metal Gear (up to 4) - I was always a splinter cell guy, but the critical acclaim for these is staggering.
The Last Guardian - from the team ICO guys, who have a ridiculously good reputation.
God of War - I only played the third game because it's the only one on the console, but the gameplay was absurdly good. Story I just don't know, so can't comment. I wasn't in love with it because I didn't know what was going on.
So, here's the thing. A lot of the games are the same, so this isn't meant to get anyone to buy a PS3. The games are there though, for sure. I can't list them all because I haven't played them all and/or don't know them all. There are more.
