    Yay, Got me PS3 today.

    As the title says, i got my PS3 (60GB) today and i am happy with my purchase. I also got, Full Auto 2 Battlelines with it and its awsome. The wireless controllers are brilliant, the layout is excellent and the overall feeeling is great.

    The PS3 is larger than i had imagined but that is not an issue.

    I got it for half price ($500) when i traded in my PS2 and 10 games, cheerin, i would have never paid 1 grand for it, but $500 is just pushing it but worth it.
    I want to die in my sleep like my Grandma, not screaming like the other 3 people in her car.

    Go install version 1.80 and throw away your DVD player. Upscaling > all.

    I envy you too. When the PS2 came out I was considering a Gamecube. I'm happy that my dad got me a PS2 before I was able to make a decision.

    That turned me into a Sony lover and I'm planning to get a PS3, although when I'm not sure yet.

    On the other hand, what's wrong with a PS3 besides the price? Does the XBox 360 have a HD DVD player? I don't really follow console wars.

    It does, but it's a $200 option.

    I thought you work at BestBuy...........It's $199.99 plus tax.

    Anyway you should've gotten the 20GB version and used the extra for a 160GB 2.5" SATA HDD (notebook type), they work in the PS3 and make up the price difference between the 20GB and 60GB version so for the price of a 60GB PS3, you can really get a 160GB PS3 with a spare 20GB HDD.

    For your average Joe, it's $200. I don't know what it would cost me.

    And I got the 60 gig version for the media slots mainly. At the time there wasn't much talk of having the media center software, and I don't really see me ever filling up the 60 gig HDD. So a 120 would be a little overkill.
