I'll answer it.

Most of the good exclusives aren't out yet. Among the ones that's out, Tekken 5 DR online, Heavenly Sword, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and Warhawk stands out.

online play is free.

PS3 home seems like it will start in march 08

So far, I think Kingdom Hearts games are announced only for portable systems.

Since they didn't announce KH3 at TGS, I doubt we will be seeing it for awhile. I still think they have to and will make this game for PS3 thou, just doesn't seem like a 360 kinda game, and I don't really count the Wii.;)

Home might have a beta over the holidays though, so keep an eye out for that. It's such a huge amount of potential as a service that the limits need to be explored for a LONG time. i expect it to be changing for at least two years post-release in terms of content and concept.

Good choice. I E-bayed my 360 and got a second PS3. I just simply like that the PS3 is more reliable, has more hardware to it,and I just like it better.

I'm looking at getting a ps3 but do have a question: I've read here that you can swap the hard drive for a bigger one. Does that violate your warranty at all? And how long is the warranty anyway? I ask because I am looking at the 80 GB one but if I can get on from ebay for cheap (say a 60gb) and then hot swap to a larger drive I'd just do that. Usually, I like ebay but I would like your opinions on getting a ps3 that way. Or should I just bite it an get the 80gb one from EB games (or whichever store)? Thanks guys for your advice!

I don't know how long the warranty is, but swapping out the HDD does not make the warranty void.

Lol. First of all you should not trade in your Xbox 360 for PS3 as thats a ripoff in terms of your money. Just buy a PS3 and keep the Xbox 360. Secondly, Hardware is not everything and does not make up a console. Next time do some more research.

If you have a 360 already, that should keep you entertained for awhile. I wouldn't buy a PS3 until early to mid next year, when the good exclusives start dropping. You really aren't missing out on anything spectacular at this point. The games that are already out will be cheaper in a few months. Warhawk will last for awhile online, so you shouldn't feel the need to get that game right now. You already missed the boat with Resistance Online. That game is already dead, but for the first 6-8 months it was the best thing the PS3 had going.

I am just saying the thing that is more important than hardware is the actual games. However, the Blu-Ray player isa great bonus.
