Well, I finally took the plunge. I bought a PS3 on Saturday for my first blu-ray player! I have been thinking of getting a PS3 for awhile, but really decided to with the Warners announcement. I was waiting for my tax return to come in. I didn't make it - but I did submit the return already, so I know it's coming. I originally bought a PS3 from Costco because it included my favorite gaming series, Ratchet and Clank, but when I got home, the PS3 was all scratched up, the controller inside the box was missing, and I could tell it was already set up. As Costco was closed, I instead went to Walmart, bought my PS3 there along with Ratchet and Clank, and took the other one back later. I'm loving it so far.

As for movies bought so far, the first one I bought (before I had the PS3) is Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl
Spider-Man III (came with it)
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Pearl Harbor (the last two mostly to get the 'free' remote - although I would have got them eventually)

and with the Amazon B2G1 offer, I got
Casino Royale (Daniel Craig shirtless in high-def!)
Rio Bravo (I saw this recently and love it, although I know the PQ is better o The Searchers)
Phantom of the Opera (hey, I'm a girl, I had to get it).

Still waiting for everything but S-M 3 to come in the mail. The brick and mortars are too expensive, although I plan on getting Cars next week at Best Buy when it's down to $20.

A great big welcome to you! Have fun here. Ask questions and join in. You posted at a pretty wild time here with the Possibility that Toshiba may be dumping HD DVD.

Who's Martinez? And what the hell is he doing on the house? Doesn't he know it's winter and that roof could be icy?
