I currently own a Wi, DS lite, and a bad ass computer, SNES, NES, N64, PS1, Dreamcast, GBA, Genesis, and a laptop.  My PS2 broke.  Sold my old 360 (RROD before 3 year warranty extension) to pay for part of a PS3, sold my 20GB PS3 for a profit.

 

New HDTV - Probably:

Smaller good 720p - example Bravia $690 - 32"

Smaller cheap - example Vizio $520- 32"

Larger cheap 720p - ex. Vizio 42" - $750

Larger cheap 1080p - example Polaroid 46" $990, Polaroid 42" $800, Vizio 42" $900

 

Here are my console options -

(1) Xbox 360 Pro or Elite and PS2

(2) PS3 with BC (doesn't have to be complete, all the games I want to play work on PS3-80GB-MGS4

I like JRPGs so 360 is what I'm leaning towards but I am looking forward to Versus and would prefer FFXIII on bluray.  I won't buy a used PS2 or 360.  I would buy a used PS3.  I will probably be getting the other console in a few months when I get my annual bonus from work.

The rest will go towards games.  I like JRPGs, platformers, hack n' slash/brawlers, traditional racing, but I am pretty open to anything.

Please no suggestions about PS3 or 360 being better.  I am getting both sooner or later.  I know all the arguments.

Please do not suggest games you haven't played.(Edit: I'm already planning on getting IU, LBP, LR, etc.  You don't need to list them)

Please list the TV you think I should get, the system, and some games. (I already owned: Perfect Dark Zero, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, Motorstorm, Darkness, and some others that you probably won't recommend anyway.)

 

I appreciate your help.  If any of you live in Orlando or are planning to visit in late September/Early October , PM me for an invitation to my HDTV-HDConsole party.  (Party tip: Captain Morgan will be attending)



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
