Dude, get it at CC. You get five free blue-ray moives plus that free controller. Heading there right after work to pick mine up.. WOOT!elduchey

Just so you know, those 5 free blu-rays are mail in rebates, meaning, it's gonna be pretty hard to actually get your money back. Mail in rebates are notorious for trying to jip people out of what looks to be a sale.

Isn't GTA4 being developed on the PS3 first then ported to 360???
I think the same might be true for Assassin's Creed seeing as how it started as a PS3 exclusive

I have a friend that works at Target and I believe his discount is for 10% off. Should I ask him to buy a PS3 for me for $450 + tax or should I go with Circuit City and get the free extra controller?

Really, the 10% discount only effects the sales tax...making it more like a $500 system than a $540 or whatever. I don't really remember the exact sales tax percentage.

Blu-Ray is just a new format. Just like VHS and BetaMax are two different formats. Ironically BetaMax was Sony's format just like Blu-Ray is. Let's just hope they don't meet the same ending.

Blu-Ray is currently the opposing format of HD-DVD from Toshiba.

Worht 500? You need to ask yourself that question. PS3 has the potential to offer you the best games this generation.

I like the fact that the PSN is free, unlike XBL which you pay $50 a year. Think about this, within 2 years you would be paying more for the 360 than you would for the PS3 (assuming you would go with the Premium).

Don't forget to go to Circuit City, they are offering a free extra Sixaxis with a PS3 purchase.

Yea i was good with my 360 untill i saw the ps3 list i was amazed.

so can i enjoy my blue ray on any tv?

and hows online? laggy or not laggy?

You don't NEED an HDTV but it looks better.

I can't say about online, I don't have a PS3 yet either. I haven't heard anything bad about the online except that you can't bring up your friends list ingame. I think that that problem will be revised with a new update.

I'm thinking of buying one with these games:

Resistance, Motorstorm, Oblivion, and maybe Ridge Racer to hold me until GT5
