Sony is in a real bad situation right now. Prices are starting to drop and they are still the most expensive. Not so sure I will ever buy the new playstaion. Nintendo has really caught my eye with their new system and some of the party games look really fun.

The main reason the PS3 is so pricey is that it is also a BluRay player, and those (by themselves) usually cost around $700+.
I'd love to get a PS3 now because I like the PS2 games that I have but want to upgrade and I am a huge movie guy and I'd love to move up to the next-gen DVDs. However, I really can't justify paying $500 for the system, plus $50 for an extra controller and $60 for each of the 5 or 6 games that they already have out that I'd want.
