Always been a Playstation fan and always will I guess and I wanted it to be my first next gen system ever since I saw the fake but still awesome Killzone 2 trailer and the first MGS4 commercial which was hilarious

My PS2 finally crapped out after five years, so it was time for a new system. That, plus the free online, and Blu-Ray.

(Also, after reading all the horrors of XBOX and the RROD, I selected PS3)

Cant lie. Been a fan of Sony since PSX. Suikoden I & II, FFVII, Madden, Street Fighter, KOF, the lis goes on. They brought the great games to me, and so much more. And I know they'll bring that same fire as they did then. So I stand by them no matter what because minus a few games on the Xbox, Playstation comes with the hits in the beginning, middle and the end.

I got a ps1 at launch. Owned a ps2. Needed a multimedia system and got a ps3.

Plus 360 broke way to much for me to buy one.

Same here. My PS2 died and just seemed like it was time to move on. Also, the BluRay capabilities helped grease the wheels.

I didn't like the PS2 I was more of a xbox and gamecube person. I bought a wii and sold it a week later because I can't stand the wiimote. I then bought a 360 and sold that a week later because of the RROD issue. I then got a PS3 and couldn't be happier.

I liked the PS2's lineup but didn't care for the grafix I used to think these games would be great on xbox. When I saw the power of the PS3 I thought if sony can produce the line up they did with the PS2 on the PS3 I'm sold.

I've always been a Nintendo person but decided to jump ship after the cube.

Because I own a PS1 and a PS2 so I figure why not get the whole set. Besides also because of Final Fantasy, Tekken 6 and God of War.

Well. I am a former 360 owner. To be honest, at the time didn't care less about the PS3. However that changed. When it came time for me to upgrade my harddrive, price turned my off. Shortly after that, I had plans to purhase the Logitech G25 (to replace the MS wheel) to use with forza. To make a long story short MS pretty much chased them away with their greed. Did some research on the PS3. The more I learned about it the more I liked it. So I ditched the 360 and purchased the recent 80GB MGS bundle. Couldn't be happier. Plus I get to have my G25.

i bought it at first because of the blu ray player and I think after developers have a little time to develope games for the ps3 it will come out on top. Also I know a god of war had to come eventually for it and a few more exclusives.

The indians at 360 tech support wouldn't fix my system for free (under warranty), they just said I was lying even though I had the receipt.
