Being a long-time PC gamer, I refuse to support the 360, mainly due to Microsoft's recent policy of diverting resources away from PC gaming toward the 360 instead. Needless to say, I like playing RTS and FPS games with a keyboard and mouse, something that they don't allow on the 360. That aside, I bought my PS3 basically as a Blu-Ray player that just happened to play Rock Band.
However, since then, I've found Burnout Paradise to be quite fun.

lol yea one good benefit that some people sometimes overlook in the PS3 is that it is the ONLY Blu-ray disk player that comes with the system...however i have yet to obtain a blu-ray movie yet AND i don't have an HDTV =(

"rawr." |
they had 2 models that were fully compatible, the 20 gb and the 60 gb. but i guess the 20 gb wasn't selling well so they discontinued it, and then recently they discontinued the 60 gb model because they were still making money off the ps2 so they didn't want to have backwards compatibility (don't quote me on that, that's just from memory). so now they have the 40 gb model and the 80 gb model, the 40gb has NO backwards compatibility at all, but the 80 gb (which i have) has partial backwards compatibility, it has the basic hardware to read old discs, but not read EVERY disc.
so far all my ps2 games have worked EXCEPT SN1 and SN2...naturally
hope that helps

40GB here -_- So sad. I hope they make a patch that makes it able to read PS2 discs. I basically got it for MGS4, greatest game to date, no joke.

Where I am, I'm told that if I accumulate enough points off of a particular food item, I can get a PS3. So I want to see if I can do that.
Then I'm going to sell the PS3, because I have no use for one. Wii FTW.

It's basically an add-on to MGS4, it's basically an encyclopedia of EVERYTHING Metal Gear and anything that was involved with it. It's pretty cool if you still have unanswered questions about the series. It also has a timeline of events and a relationship chart. Another good thing about it is that you can lock/unlock data by playing and beating MGS4. The add-on is free in the PS Network...i think Post #31 · Posted at 2008-07-23 02:03:07am 15.6 years ago

Right now I'm leaning to a PS3, but I might get an X360 instead. Overall, I'm happy with my Wii.

Got one. Pretty cool features like the Eyecreate game that allows me to make videos and post them on youtube. Awesome games like GTA4 and Metal gear Solid 4. Glad i got one.

I was thinking about getting it for a couple of reason
the new Ratchet and Clank game and possibly for the future DDR games, along with Final Fantasy 13 and many others. But right now I'm going to get a PSP, maybe in the future.

PS3 was an expensive paperweight until MGS4 came out.
I suggest waiting to buy it until you know what game/games you want OR if you can get it super cheap.

what ticked me off was that we bought a 40GB PS3 for 399.99, and this was weeks BEFORE the E3 announcement that they made when they lowered the 80GB price to 399.99...I suggest waiting to buy it until you know what game/games you want OR if you can get it super cheap.
Do you think i can return the PS3 and get the 80GB version?

By this point, it's probably too late...
But, with a 320GB hard drive selling for $100, that's an interesting proposition right there...

This is exactly why I say to make sure you know what you're buying before you buy.
I WARNED THEM. BUT THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE ME.

For those who have a PS3, is it easy to get online? because I had alot trouble with the Wii. Until I had to buy a certain adapter for it.
