I am debating whether the system is worth the price for what i would use it for: blu ray movies, resistance 1 and 2, killzone 2,warhawk, mgs4, maybe haze, and drakes uncharted, socom, and resident evil 5. I have been having this debate with myself for about six months now, and any input would be appreciated.

If you can sign up for a Playstation (Chase) Visa at SonyStyle.com they'll give you a $150 credit.

$250 for blu-ray, upscaled DVDs, media streaming (or use the HD for mp3 jukebox), and games is a pretty good deal.

Add Dark Sector for $10 (newegg) - $20 (amazon) for more shootin' and glaive-decapitation fun.

80GB core now! Apply for Sony CC for $150 credit and never use the card again! Tversity + PS3 = Epic Win!

You asked if its worth it for its multimedia features and like 8 games? Wtf?

People buy systems for 1 game many times, and you're having problems deciding?

The Drake's Fortune sequel should be worthwhile, and Little Big Planet is pretty nifty.

Yes. It's Christmas. The season of splurging for yourself, even if you've been naughty this year.

I also want one soo bad I can taste it but I want the 60 gig model for full BC which makes the search all the more fun but I think I will end up having to wait for a few more months to be able to save up for one and hopefully durring CES in january they announce a new model that has BC and a better price.

You should probably include "and dispense candy" to the list - it has about as much chance of coming as BC.

I just got one Sunday and have no regrets.

I'm installing PlayOn! right now actually so I can stream Hulu to it.

I've been playing BioShock for the most part but also have Star Wars: Force Unleashed, which is pretty fun.

Well worth it if you can swing the cost IMO.

PS3 has a built-in brower, it supports full screen flash playback, you don't need PlayOn for Hulu.

I got my 360 for 2 games and the fact that I already had a Blu-Ray player. Your reasoning seems solid so just buy the PS3! (And you forgot God of War III as a reason for buying :p)
