PS3? ...are they still sellin those? :rotfl:

Seriously though, what's the GameStop guy backing up that argument with? I'm still mildly irritated with Sony and the lack of decent PSP games. Basically I've found about 4 decent PSP games and other than that it's just a neat little handheld web browser. Makes me less apt to want to get into the PS3 I guess.

On the one hand you got MS and you're right, we hate to give Bill more money. On the other hand we got Sony and all their proprietary crap (blu ray, mem stick, mem stick 2, etc...) I just wish they'd stop it.

I'd basically be buying the X360 to play one game. My kids got a Wii though... I might try it out on that system first. Actually, might be cooler to swing a light saber with a Wii controller. :hmm:

This is why I like this forum aaronblood. I get more info before I part with the big bucks. If I spend that kinda money then later don't like it my wife will KILL me.

@ FIREWALL

Buy yourself a 40GB model (cheap at the moment) and then just get a new HDD. Do not pay extra for the privilege for the pre-installed extra space.

I originally bought a 60GB and now have 250GB installed. It's really easy too, open flap, undo 1x screw, insert new HDD & start system. Done.

and rather then pumping money into a system, I can fix my 86' BMW and drive it for another 80,000 Miles

everyone has their priorities
