Hell yes, launch would have been so much better with the current price/line up.

Needs at least one great exclusive. Aaaand I need an HDTV. But damn, it's still pretty tempting. If only it had launched at this price...

Nope, I'll wait for the price to hit the current PS2 price before biting on Sony's newest 'wondermachine', since it has so much shit I won't use on it.

I'll wait till Warhawk comes out and buy one. I played the beta at a friends house and en love it. I was so close in getting one a month ago, but the stupid seller didn't show up.

Maybe, but only because my PS2 is about to die and there are still PS2 games I want to play. Which is a terrible reason to buy one, yet here we are.

No, because I dont have enough time for games this next year anyway:

GTA IV
Halo 3
Unreal 3
SSBB

Thats gonna take me a while, since im sure there will be a ton of out-of-the-blue good games.

I chose "other" - I'd pay $500 for one if there were some AAA exclusive games to play... so until that time I'm a "no"

Hmm..

$500 for a PS3 and a blu ray player all in one.. I could catch up on all the PS2 titles I missed (didn't own a PS2 past 2003.. did play GOW and GOW2, but missed out on Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, the Final Fantasy games, the Kingdom Hearts series, etc).. could play my PS One games again.. and be able to play Lair, Heavy Rain, Heavenly Sword, Resistance, Motorstorm, LittleBig World, Eight Days, and the system selling Afrika..

..eh, I dunno. I probably would.

The PS3 library is lacking, but I'd buy one once there are some games worth playing (that aren't multi-platform).

$500 is a good deal for a Blu-Ray player / video game console.

No. Would at least have to be the same price as the 360, but even then I couldn't justify it as the 360 has so many more games to play.

All the "extras" the PS3 has I really could care less about.

I had this same thought until I was able to find a decent 19" LCD HDTV for about $230 after tax with Composite, HDMI, and VGA ports. But I'm sticking to my rule that I won't spend more than 300 bucks on a console. I own a 360 but through trade-in deals it only costs me about 250 bucks cash to get it.

$500 for a PS3, plus the Blu Rays, and maybe an extra controller (+ tax). I just wish I could buy it from Ron Popeil at that price. I'll have one by September.

I was unwilling to pay $500 when it launched, and with the library it built up of 0 interesting games, I remain unwilling.
