Is a PS3 really worth getting??

*sigh*

Yes it is worth getting you got great games coming out this yr.

Ex: Warhawk,Heavenly Sword,Lair,UT3(plus mods),Haze,Uncharted and Home,Rock Band(Wireless controller)

Next year it's going to be even greater with MGS4,LA Noire,Littlebigplanet,R* Exsclusive and many more so imo yes it is a good investment but look around at games and see if it interests you thats all i can say.

I'm asking myself the same question and I think it comes down to whether you want one with backwards compatability or not. I want to get one this year because I have a lot of PS2 games I want to play on the same box as my PS3 games years from now, and I know that the software supported backwards compatability isn't very good. So yes, if you want backwards compatability, the 60 gig is worth getting this year.

As far as games goes, its lineup doesn't really match the Xbox 360, Wii or PC (which I put in this category since you could upgrade your pc for 600 bucks). The first party games are good, but I don't think that anyone will argue that Warhawk is better than Halo 3 and that Heavenly Sword and Drake looks more interesting than Mass Effect. I also think that the PC version of UT 3 will be the best one but I have serious issues with the Games for Windows LIVE program and they may use that.

To me, the main draw of a PS3 this year is the hardware basedbackwards compatability which they took out in the 80 gig model and downloadable and importgames. There will be a demo of little big planet this year and one can import some of the more interesting games that may come out in japan.

The main reason to buy a PS3 I think is still for the future, because the Japanese will eventually start buying them and those Japanese games will most certainly not come to the Xbox 360. Also, Burnout comes out soon and it's going to be amazing.

Basically, if you like western games, skip on the PS3 for another year or so, if you like Japanese games then you'll want one soon and you may as well get one before the 60 gigs are gone.

if all you want in your library are great first-party games, then its worth it. if you dont want every other 3rd party multi-plat to get delayed then its not worth itvip3r666

well i own both a 360 elite and a ps3, but the ps3 will start to gain momentum this holiday season, and really get going next year, so yeah ill say its worth it..from an unbiased opinion..

its better to have both. honestly for both have a great future planned..

i just hope most of the things planned for them(both) doesnt keep getting pushed back.

and hopefully sony will start focusing less and less on the ps2 and start getting with their own program with the ps3, then we will see more and more that it was more than worth it.

is a PS3 worth getting??and if so why??and wat good games are coming out...jwDillon12221
