Looking at Sony, backward compatibility will probably be out of the question with PS4 anyway, so get PS3 whenever you want.

Of course not -- I had a 360 all this gen as well and really want a PS3 now. Currently waiting for the $200 PS3 bundle deal to resurface and i'm buying one the moment I see it. And even if the PS4 is confirmed next year, you can always sell the PS3/trade-in for store credit towards it.

Well yeah, the later you buy a console, the better it is.

Biggest ever library, hardware problems have been more or less ironed out and you have a huge install base for MP games.

Most definitely! = ) After seeing TLU and Beyond TS at E3 this year, I just couldn't resist any longer. Plenty of games I want to play on it overall though. Can't wait!

I'm getting those games as well, definitely TLoU! I heard it's going to have multiplayer, I have no idea what kind it'll have though.

Yah I know. That was still in-stock early yesterday as well. But like, I didn't get the money to buy one until yesterday evening. Now it's sold out everywhere I check -- really hoping it pops up again at that price point soon.

Yup, you missed out. You can never ever buy a PS3 anymore. The whole world is sold out.

Like what some people said, it's never too late to buy a console. The games are there. They just won't disappear into dust, huh?

Its never too late specially now that PS3 is much cheaper and it has a huge games library..

Secondly many of the best PS3 exclusives can be found at very cheap prices as well... Finally you can enjoy free online play for any mp oriented titles on PS3 so got no additional costs...

Yeah. Buy one if you've never had one. You can always sell it again if it's not for you.

no, of course not, it's the best time to buy a Ps3, You would have quite a large Back catalog of Ps3 Exclusives by now.

Look at games for the PS3 next year and decide yourself.
