I think personally, if you have the money, PS3 is a decent console with plenty features to offer and plenty of games to come.

PS2 - unless you think Resistance is worth the extra $370. (in the States, anyways)

I'd get the PS2 because it is a hell of a lot cheaper, and the PS3 isn't YET an essential buy unless you're after a blue ray player imo.

:roll: :roll: :roll:

So when GT5, Tekken 6, DMC4, VF5, FF XIII, RE5, Lair, Motorstorm etc are here

Do you really think he'd be happy he has a PS2?????

Its simply, You can Make the short term decision Get a PS2 now which is looking to end in its Life span.

OR

You can think Long term, Get the PS3, still play your PS2 games and PS3 games, Blu-ray movies etc

Get a PS3

If you have the money to spare, you might as well just buy the PS3 since you can play PS2 games on it. And if you don't have a 360, there's a number of great games around the corner that are multiplat that are coming out for the PS3 (i.e. Oblivion, Rainbow Six: Vegas, SC:DA, etc.) that would be worth it.

Why play cheap and get a PS2 when you can just play It smart and buy a PS3

PS2 is about ready to finish its Life span PS3 just started. All PS2's must have games are about ready to progress to PS3. And heck about all great PS2 games are playable on PS3

So I ask why play cheap and get PS2??????  Think long term people

No, that's a little harsh. It's like saying don't buy a Wii now because you can find TP on GC.

MP3 was also scheduled for a Q1 '07 release - and Reggie just confirmed that it would not be coming out in early '07. "Q1, Q2, etc." are tentative.

As far as we know, yes it is. But which should you buy? Isn't the answer blatantly obvious? The PS3 plays both kinds of games and won't be abandoned within the next two years.

Not really. The Wii has other outstanding exclusive titles (WarioWare, WiiSports, Trauma Center). Not to mention, the Virtual Console.
