Is PS3 worth it?

Should I get a PS3?

I'm debating weather I should get a PS3 or not. I currently own a Wii... some of the games for PS3 look freaking amazing. I'm really looking forward to MGS4 and FF13. THere are also a bunch of other ones that look tight... but I'm not sure... what do you guys think?
 
Definitely worth every dollar spent. All the things it does straight out of the box is simply incredible for only $500. If you want everything the PS3 has on a 360, you're looking at spending $790.

I just finished Ratchet and Clank Future and Heavenly Sword. Both were fantastic games!

Oh and welcome to the site. :)
 
Thanks for the help guys! :)

Killzone 2 ftw?

So yeah I'm probably gonna be getting one sometime. Once I do... I'll let cha know my PSN so we can get some uber online going!
 
The PS3 is definitely worth buying, if you have the money, but if you have a choice, I would get a 360. There's a lot more good games out there for it right now(albeit, many of the good ones are shooters), and, if you are worried about price, it is cheaper.
 
I voted 'no.' It's a very cool console, and a very cool looking console as well. It has sweet features, great graphics. But the only major thing have against it is lack of decent games. I mean, sure, it has decent games, but they are mostly available on the Xbox 360 for a lower price.
 
PS3 has really all the good games that the 360 does besides the exclusives but the same can be said for 360. But what the 360 doesnt do is give u as many extras that come with the games that Sony has been doing a great job with.
 
See, this is what i meant when i said "ENOUGH WITH THE SPECIAL EDITIONS!!!"

A free plush doll or an art book doesn't make the game more fun.

Im not talking about that. If u buy the boxed Warhawk game for $60 instead of getting the digital download from PSN for $40 u get a Logitech Bluetooth headset. and thats a way better deal then a doll or art book. Look at Eye of Judgement for another example, u get the game, the new eye toy, and a deck of cards for the game for $70. And also for games that aren't exclusives like Rainbow Six and such u get the stuff from the Xbox version plus extra stuff on the disc already instead of paying for it on XBL.

Just remember, only cheaper if you're not doing wireless internet. :)
Yep, it's the same price if you go for wireless internet, assuming you buy the Premium, the router thing, and a year of live.

Yes, the thing is, the 360 has more good exclusives than the PS3. Many of the worthwhile games you are gonna get however, are available on both the PS3 and 360.

Those cards are able to be copied, and the copies are able to be used in the game, I read a report on it. So it's garbage. You're not getting a free Bluetooth headset, you're paying $20 for it...and all that content is eventually free in the Xbox 360 versions of the games.

Did I say it was free no, but there still is savings. As for the Eye of Judgement really why would u do that u take the complete fun out of the game, half the fun of the game is getting the cards and saying the Eye of Judgement is garbage itself is LAME. Its one of the most Innovative games out there. And as for waiting for the content on 360 why wait when u can get it now. Sorry for the blocks of text that I keep on writing
 
Let's just drop this now. I don't really care to know which console any of you favor more, because it always ends up in a fanboyfest. Xbox 360 has awesome things about it, and so does Playstation 3.

Simple as that, just drop the matter right now.

Could we not drop the matter? Its kinda the whole point of this topic. I wanna find out what I should buy. So all the opinions are helping me out. :)
 
it is a 100% worth buying, i still need to buy one but i've played it and it's a lot of fun to play warhawk on-line and obvlivion.
 
It'll be a good buy next year, once it's worth buying. If you have the money, get a 360. It just has more and better games right now.

Well, if you're wondering what you should buy, it may just come down to which genres of games you like best. Both consoles (360 and PS3) have strengths and weaknesses in various genres, so it may be helpful if we know which types of games you like, because that may determine which console you like best.

I guess if you're only looking for that. The PS3's just got alot more stuff for the money. This is then again assuming you want all the extra stuff the PS3 can provide. It all comes down to games now...and to tell you the truth...the PS3 has just as many great exclusives as the 360 right now. Not exclusives, I'm talking about GREAT exclusives. That's just my opinion though. :)
 
I'd buy the PS3 if I had the money, and get Heavenly Sword and Folklore. And Little Big Planet once that comes out. :)

I already have a 360, though, so that makes a difference. I would buy a 360 before a PS3 if I didn't already have the 360.
