It's looking like I might go in on a PS3 Slim with a friend. I guess it's bugging him that he's had an HDTV for 3 years but never bothered hooking an HD signal up to it.
I looked at the PS3 lineup with the qualifier of 'would I prefer to play this game on a Wii if I could" and only found 3 or 4 titles that I'd consider buying (not including downloadable games. I am going to positively ransack PSN). So there's just no way I'd pay the full cost of a PS3. But if I help my friend buy one and call it a birthday/Christmas gift, that gets me access to it at a more reasonable cost.
Why not a 360? I like the 360's controller, but the guy wants a Blu-ray player, I feel online should be free, swappable HD is great if it gets used often as a media centre, and Sony has a better record of build quality.
