I've been a 360 owner for about 2 years, loved the games and everything but I'm getting a bit bored with it. To those who have a PS3, do you see it having a good future in the next 2-3 years?

yes, I see the PS3 lasting just as long as the PS2 if not longer. There's a great amount of exclusives coming for ps3 this year and next that look great. I've got a good exclusive list as my first blog entry.

Its never too late to get a PS3. Its one of the best choices I've made with consoles.

Without a doubt it will last. You've got some great selection to pick up now, and come Christmas you'll get even more games coming. I like playing my PS3 and 360, they feel different enough in the exclusives so its nice to be able to get the best of both.

Don't believe the people who say it killed it's own brand or that it sucks, PS3 is awesome and you should get one. If you do, add me on PSN: XredX21

I would write : No.

But I might get modded again for disruptive posting. ;) Just kidding mods, don't take it personal!

Seriously, it's not. Might be the best time yet, unless it has a price drop soon...

Anyway, you should get one, it's cool. :)

I am with you on the PS3 front. I had one, and sold it. I buy a 360 and was happy for a little bit. Now I hate it. I want my PS3 back. Gotta wait though. Price is to high for me nowadays. Good thing is, I will buy it again with the 80gb harddrive and rumble shock as opposed to the 40gb wth no rumble

ONe more thing. AS A 360 OWNER! I DO BElIEVE THAT THE PS3 WILL HAVE A LONGER SHELF LIFE THEN THE XBOX 360. I think the 360 is starting to sputter now and if Killzone 2, MLB THe Show, and Little Big Planet are any indication, then the sky is the limit for the PS3. I hate to admit it, but the 360 is getting lame. I'm sick of everyone saying,"but online, but online, but online, but online, but online". Im sick of it. I play games alone and like it. I hate online gaming. It's only good for updating rosters and patches

Too late? It is just getting started.

Get one and pick up older games like Uncharted, MGS 4, LBP, Resistance 1 &2, Ratchet and Clank, and so many more(whatever fits your tastes).

KZ 2, Infamous, Uncharted 2, MAG, Heavy Rain, God of War 3, etc shows the PS3 is just continuing to build up a heck of a lineup og games.

Also dont forget the great multiplats such as Fight Night 4, Assasian's Creed 2, Max Payne 3, Mafia 2, Batman, etc.

Late? No mate, we have just started. One of the best games that are announced so far are this year and 2010 with probably more announcement on E32009 and Tokyo game Show.

Plus, almost all the PS3 exclusives are on much lower price now so you can catch up and pay much less.

PS3 is here to stay for another 4-5+ years.

Not too late at all, my friend. The PS3 has a good 5-7 years left, I'd say.

With a big swell in PS3 exclusives coming out in the next year as well as all the awesome game/console bundles, I'd say it's the best time to get one!!!

It's never too late to buy ANY system. People are still buying systems far older than the PS3. Most haven't had official support for ten years. The PS3 launched in Q4 2006.

I just got mine about 2 weeks ago and am loving it. I'm just pissed that I heard about the whole price drop thing a few days after buying it.

I think joining late can be better, this was the case with my 360.
I mean if you get a PS3 now you have all the great games to catch up on.

Is it ever too late to purchase something that you will undoubtedly enjoy? ppl are still buying PS2's and that gen is over. My answer is "yes" to the 2 -3 yr question. There are some exclusives that might catch your interest that have already been released and more to come in the near future.

unless you just can't wait to get one, i'd buy one later in the year, as it now seems a price drop is most likely going to happen sometime this year ;)

Its never too late to buy any system, especially a PS3. The system is going to be around for a long time still. There isn't going to be a PS4 any time soon and we will probably get a slimmer PS3 first like they did with the PS2.
