I would probably get Metal Gear Solid 4 if I were to get a PS3. Then my first movie would either be 300 or Watchmen. Both are visually amazing.

Yes, if you have a 360 you need a subscription to xbox live and netflix. If you get a PS3 you can buy http://www.themediamall.com/playon/plugins for $50...which ends up being cheaper in the long run.

As for streaming quality, it depends on your internet speed.

I honestly wouldn't get MGS 4 unless you really enjoy watching your games.
I got turned off because in the first two hours, maybe 30 minutes or so of it was actually controllable, but alas.

Also, I have yet to see 300 so couldn't comment nor Watchmen, but curious why. I don't remember anything in the movie standing out too much visually.

Thanks for the info about netflix guys.

Anyway, to answer the original question of the post.. I'd personally go for MGS4. But since you're implying that you'd only have one game for a very long time, I'd lean towards GTA4 in that case.
