Hey everyone, I am thinking about buying a PS3 but I am a little leary about getting one. Theuy seem like they haven't sold too many in the US, and there does not seem to be many games out for it. So I wanted to ask people that actually own one. Do you guys like your PS3's? Do you regret buying one? And if i get one what games should I buy first. I already have my eyes on motorstorm. any info would help alot thx

You should get a ps3. But i would say get it in summer, till then more exclusive games will come out such as Lair, Warhawk, heavenly Sword and also some multiplatform games that will expand the ps3 library.

I bought the ps3 and i simply dont regret getting it because i dont only use it for gaming also for movies and as an entertainment hub. and i really think this cool device is worth the 600$.

again if u wanna buy one, look at the games comming out soon if u like any then get it when those games are out. So i'd say summer is the perfect time to get a ps3.

well i would get one if for now while your waiting for more games to come out you will also use it as a blu ray player, if your strictly a gamer then yah i would wait till the summer. Motorstorm although i have not played it probably wont keep you busy for a longlong time like oblvion does. i only have 2 games oblivion, RFOM but i dont regret buying it. i always watching blu ray movies on it and oblivion is keeping me busy while other games are coming on the way. its a great machine and can only get better with the additions soon to come.

I say buy a ps3 even though it doesnt affect me but I think that its well worth the money and its only a matter of time before the good games start to flow.

I have no regrets. I love my PS3. Yeah, games might be lacking at the moment but it will soon pick up.

Yeah, I would recommend the PS3... There are some very good games out for it now:  Resistance, Motorstorm, Virtua Fighter, Oblivion plus the 2K and EA sports titles... I'm playing Motorstorm and loving it, probably the best arcade racer since Burnout IMO.  If you have an HDTV or plan on getting one soon you'll be able to watch HD movies as well.   I bought my PS3 back in January and love it.... There are a bunch of good games coming out this year too: LairHeavenly SwordWarhawkRatchet and ClankAssaassins CreedDevil May Cry 4Metal Gear solid 4Uncharted HomeLittle Big Planet  plus Final Fantasy 13, White Knight Story, God of War 3, Wipeout, Grand Turismo are coming sometime in 2008.... Look these games up at IGN or gamespot to see if they interest you or not.  Not sure if you have a ps2 or ps1 but +95% of those games are compatible with the PS3 so your older games wont be useless.  Lots of reasons to get a ps3

Get one now. There are a ton of games to hold you off until even more come out. I really don't get why people keep saying there are no games out for it or that they suck because I've played EVERY game there is for it and I've yet to even hit the surface of bordem. I guess most of the owners are just whiners and not real gamers anyways. I'm just so sick of hearing the same thing over and over. For those bord or thinking there are no good games, SELL YOUR CRAP..........THAT IS IF YOU EVEN HAVE ONE.

IMO, PS3 is not good for games right now. But if you have an HDTV and want to watch HD movies, then the PS3 is worth it. I've been renting Blu-ray movies from Netflix. I just saw Casino Royale and The Descent on Blu-Ray. Great films.

if your going to get one way not now?some ppl say later when more games come out but what's the diff now or later if your going to get one and you have the cash i say get it because who knows what may happen b4 the summer and you may spend it all up. but to say there no good games is childish i mean hell you have raceing,football,basketball,rpg,fps,fighting is all covered pretty good if you can play all those games plus 650$ for system then your good plus there more coming out the month f.e.a.r, r6v you'll have fun plus some arcade downloads plus online play and blu-ray movies..... LOOKS GOOD RIGHT NOW!!!! PEACE!!!

If you are like me and already own a 360 and have alot of games then there is really only two games out for it at the moment.  resistance and motorstorm.

I planned on waiting to get a PS3 untill some more good games came out but i changed my mind.  I thought i may as well play the two games now for the PS3 amd just wait untill more games comes out.  The prices is going to be the same for at least 6 months.

If you don't have a 360 then i would consider both the PS3 or the 360. Make your choice on the games out and coming out. 

If i didn't have any console then i would buy the 360 first but it all down to peoples taste.  At the moment 360 has better games and better online.  Also alot more games are out for the 360.  I might change my mind which system i preffer next year when there is more PS3 games.

That just my opinion.

I must admit i was a little weary when getting my ps3 but i though i have the money i'll get it, and i tell you what im no fan boy to any console i have all 3 and im a big fan of the 360.
But i notice when i turned on the ps3 no sound it the quietest piece of kit which has so much hardware in tht u wud think it be a jet engine but no so quiet. 
I tell you that i could sell the ps3 to anyone just with one game and thts motorstorm, i'm not big on racing games but that is quality, ps3 is worth it rite now for tht game alone so i cant wait till the others come out plus the movies on blue ray r spot on.

Since you really don't plan on taking advantage of the additional multimedia function, I would say wait. The good games aren't coming out until summer or early fall. Over all I'm happy with my ps3, because it's becoming my main media hub. So the lack of games(FOR THE PRESENT MOMENT) don't frustrate me.

if you want a PS3, you should buy it. I am happy with mine. If you have your eyes on Motorstorm, you should get it but I warn you, if you don't plan on playing it online, then it will be extremely boring after a while. I also suggest Resistance but get motorstorm if you like racing more than FPS. And you cannot always rate how good something is by the sales.

I agree with him. Although there are some sucky games for the ps3 but its like any new console. They also have really great games as well like fall of man, motorstorm,oblivion, NHL 2k7, Call of duty 3 is a good online game as well. Just buy it. Those games will keep you busy till the summer plus you will get use to the PS3 interface. There are a couple of people ive seen on these boards that bought the ps3 but werew upset iwth the interface and online setup.They were just used to the 360 set up. idiots. they cant expect it to be the same.
