i think its worth it, although i got it for a christmas present, but I also feel stupid having my parents spending money on something i regret, and I dont feel that, and with home coming out around the release of GTA IV im going to be on cloud 9 in fall of this year. I feel that getting the ps3 off the beginning will make all the future updates and games feel better and better rather than having it all off the beginning

It's worth it. Just like when PS2 came out with no games and a then high price tag of $299. It was worth it.

I wouldn't compare it to the ps2 since there is a major price difference, however, the $500 I spent hasn't been wasted but I do feel I don't have enough 1st party games and waiting isn't all that fun. You will be happy with your purchase though in the end.

YES!!!!  The ps3 has MASSIVE potential...it's an investment and with any investment...it takes time to grow.But what makes the ps3 different from anything you buy..?? Eventually, everything you buy will go through some type of price reduction.

To be honest, if you have HDTV, it's really worth it. The Blu-ray player really come in handy (once you seen movies in HD, it's hard to come back to DVD)

If you don't have HDTV yet, my advice is save up on it first.
But really it's a good investment and it's worth it cause PS3 is not only a game console but also an entertainment system.

If you think the price is going to drop that much in a year then wait a year.  Keep in mind the 360 has been out in the U.S. for close to 16 months now.  Still no price drop.

but that's because you've never had an HDTV, therefore you're used to the low resolution the games on the PS3 have. If you had an HDTV when you bought a ps3 and later played it on an SDTV you'll think the game looks like crap.

It's a good media center. I love watching movies from YouTube on my PS3. Downloading movies and putting it on my PS3, music. I like it. I guess Sony did live up to what they are intending the system is for; as a media center. But, for those who are "disappointed" are just people who expect something more out of the system that truly wasn't there to begin with.

I have no clue what a quid is and frankly I don't want to....

anywho. If you consider the console as a game machine and a HD movie player, then absolutely. If only as a game console, I can see why some people choose to wait. I have gotten more use out of the PS3 since I bought it in December than the other two consoles. In the lull between RFOM and VF5, I simply started watching more BluRays, which was just as fun as games, albeit a much short experience. The system is of the highest quality and is definately a good purchase, especially with the sudden in flux of games. RFOM, F1, Motorstorm, VF5, Oblivion and others should certainly keep a gamer busy for quite some time. As for the ports from the 360, most of them are so close you'd never really notice unless you had them side by side.

 I do not regret paying 600 bucks for mine at all, I could have waited for a price drop or more games, but it premium to have it now instead of a year or two, in my case, justifiable.

At this point, I don't think the $800+ I've spent on the PS3 has been worth it. I haven't played any games that, IMO, have justified the price.

Hopefully that will change later this year.

The PS3 is totally worth it. Yes, the system will be way better in the future, when you can play DMC4 and MSG4. I still would get it now, because there's enough good stuff to keep you occupied until that time. Resistance alone was worth the PS3's price for me, plus other great games such as MotorStorm, and watching Blu-Ray movies.

HOnestly, there's no way the "experience" I've had SINCE launch is worth 600 bucks. One things for sure though... with all the good news coming out recently, it lessens the blow.
