I guess the Oppo is a better choice for me since I'm more of a movie person than a gamer. But the thing is, I'm not so sure how much better the Oppo is with BDs. Every standalone BD player has an issue with a few BD titles, including Oppo. It's one of the disadvantages of buying a standalone. But with the PS3, it can play EVERY BD title on the market and will play ALL future BD titles for many years to come. No standalone is like that. The PS3 is known for being the most stable Blu-ray player available.
