If the only PS3 exclusives that interest me are MGS4, Killzone 2, and the Resistance games.

Yes, Killzone 2 is the greatest game of all time and more than worth the money you'll pay.

That's basically 4 games. You should try to find at least another 2 or 3 that interest you.

It all depends on what you like in the console but the games you listed are all excellent to play.

Resistance? Killzone? Man, you must be a sucker for sci-fi and concrete and rebar. Get a PS3 for Noby Noby Boy, nothing beats eating your own ass.

I'm most certainly not joking. Haze had a complex, insightful story with a lot of poignant social commentary, tight, responsive controls, brilliant level design and some of the most inspired art design in years. It's not on the benchmark PS3 FPS, but arguably the single best first person shooter released on a console since Goldeneye.

There is so much more to the PS3 than just that handful of exclusives. I would seriously doubt you couldn't find more that interests you.

If you have the money and really want one you should get one. But don't just buy into the hype that the cows spin on this website PS3 has like 3 really good exclusive titles and thats it. I almost got a PS3 until I realized I play mostly multiplat games, MGS4 isn't worth the purchase you can just rent it, I will not be playing R2 or KZ 2 once COD:MW2 comes out, and the only thing that I really want to play or know more about is the new Twisted Metal game coming for the PS3 so until then I'm waiting and will re-evaluatewhen some more games come out that I am into. Don't let other people's opinons sway you, you know what types of games you enjoy and how long you play certain types of games.

I hate when people can't decide by their own and come here to ask someone else what they should do with their money, i bought a ps3 without the need of asking fanboys here from both sides what to do,is my own money and i buy what i want worthy or not,i felt like buying 1 again and give it a try.,is that so hard for you to do it TC?and even if you don't like the console you have a time to return it!

wait for price drop, if you held out this long you can wait a couple more months for a price drop. Then you would have enough saved up to buy all the games you want, controller, and the system.

Yes, you should get it because you already have 3 -4 games that interest you. Eventually you'll find more after you buy the system. Be a true gamer and own all systems.

I'd wait to hear if they're going to drop the price, if not go ahead. I used to wonder the same thing until I realized how botched our economy is so majority I invested in more important crap.

I can't imagine how people are giving you such short answers. I would say that it depends. If you are like me, own a 360 (or maybe a Wii) and there are still great games that you haven't had the time to play, then no, I would say stick with your current console (if you own one). If you do not own any of the next gen consoles, I'd say go for it. There are a lot of great games for the PS3.

Personally, I want a PS3 but can't make myself buy one. Like I said, there are more games out that I want to play than I have time for as it is. Also, I could use that money to buy more games.

Depends...

I mean I have one and its great. Its a brilliant shooter console :D

Even if you have a 360 or wii, Id get one, more consoles = more high quality exclusives. And sonys 1st party dev team are arguable the best set of devs around, very talented bunch...

That's more than enough for you now, right? Unless you're a full-time gamer.

i seems you really like shooters?

if thats the case then you should deffinitly give uncharted and warhawk a try aswell.

both of which are really good games. (expecialy uncharted, one of my favorites this year)

you should also try out LBP and VC, but i suggest you rent these first (there not for everybody)

All I got a PS3 for was MGS4, and I was happy with it. Then I found some other games I liked, so sure, go for it. I mean, I'm not interested in KZ2 and Resistance myself, but there's other games worth owning too. Like LBP and NGS (if you don't have NGB that is)

Sounds to me like you love the FPS games, so I can recommend PS3, as well as Xbox 360. But not the Wii. It sucks for FPS (although it's admittedly getting better). The PS3 is a good console and should have enough gaming for you. So I can recommend it. But I don't recommend asking in this forum.

I'm waiting for a price cut, so I guess that's the only advice I can give you. It has a lot of exclusives that I'm looking foward to playing, such as Uncharted, GOW3, KZ2, MGS4, R1 & 2, LBP etc etc, as well as games like inFamous, heavy rain etc on the way. Half those games I listed are already cheap due to being 'classic' re-releases. The longer you wait, the more games will fall under that price.
