Not me. People can go waste money on this system, while I could, if I wanted to, afford a Wii and a 360. But I wouldn't want to because I hate Xbox and Xbox360.

I'll probably get the PS3 once it has really lowered in the price, same goes for the games.

The PS3 games will not cost $89.99 or higher because how are they going to sell it. People will not buy it. So it's not going to cost that much. I'm getting the PS3 on January because ever since other people brought the Xbox 360, and the systems were garbage and at Christmas the poor sweet heart kids cry because there 360 died because of crappysoft rushed it and wanted a lot of money. Luckily, it never happened to me. It could happen to the PS3.

I won't be getting a PS3 for awhile, maybe spring sometime.
I would hope since they pushed back the first realease date that Sony would be smart and double check their system in that time frame. But then again anything mass produced is bound to have a malfuntion of some sort... -_-

It seems all PS3 games will be sold for $59.99 US. The PS3 itself will ship in two initial configurations, the main difference being a 20GB ($499) or a 60GB ($599) hard disk.

The $599 system will include HDMI Memory Stick/SD/CompactFlash Slots, Wi-Fi and a 60GB Hard Disk Drive, while the $499 system comes with HDMI Memory Stick/SD/CompactFlash Slots, Wi-Fi and a 20GB Hard Disk Drive. The only difference is that you pay $100 more for 40GB more.

I'm getting one on launch day or as soon as possible. I wouldn't even bother with the PS3 but when MGS4 comes out I'll know why I bought it. I'm getting the 60GB version though because I'm sure they'll make stuff to upgrade the 20GB system but you'll end up spending more money probally.

I will definitley be getting the PS3, for ne reason, to get the latest and greatest versions in Game consoles, I dont want to get XBOX 360, as Im not used to the controls, and cant be bothered getting used to them.

PS3, is going to be the best Game console. Buy it!

No, his facts were wrong; games are worth about 60, like the Xbox 360.
