Congrats! I have my very own PS3 waiting under the tree as well. My kids snaked the other one a few months ago after I bought a standalone.

Congrats !

I see that you joined in November; is this your first Blu ownage? (Either player or discs).

The PS3 is a great media hub for music, movies, games and more. I envey your 20GB over my own.

I just ordered an 80GB Metal Gear Solid 4 Pack from Amazon! New @ $499!

There was only 2 left when I ordered, so there's probably only one left now!

It had a copy of Metal Gear Solid 4 included, plus backwards compatibility, a Dualshock 3, and now I won't need to get a Nyko adapter, unless I wanted it to have 6 USBs and two SD card and Memory Stick readers.

The value of the PS3 is worth it. But paying $650 from an Amazon merchant is asinine. Technically I had a small credit of $6 some odd dollars, so it was deducted from my final price. No tax, no shipping costs, and everything else makes it all worthwhile.

Thank you, but I do not have a high definition TV yet. This will be my only major purchase for a long time. For now, it's back to strict savings.

Also, another reason for the 80GB MGS4 model in particular is because of the 65nm Cell and the lower heat output. I want to take good care of it, so it will last a LONG time. I have never owned a game console ever, and I remember playing many other kinds when I was growing up, including the NES, which was a long time ago.

No, it's not. It's a good console, with several good franchises that take advantage of the consoles hardware capabilities, and does so rather well.

However, when it comes to a high-end, long term choice, I chose the PS3. The Blu-ray playback is one of the best features, and it's not limited to movies.
