I'm surprised that none of the strong Sony supporters have been here to tear you up yet. I just wanted to comment on your theory of "cheap" blu-ray player. Stand alone BR players are way cheaper than $300 so I think you may have boned yourself on that one. I have no intentions of getting a PS3 due to time constraints but there are indeed a few games that I would check out if I could spend the majority of my free time playing games. I could care less what place they are in the bottom line is that as a gamer, some of their games look great. Another comment about blu-ray, here in the states I think that the prices have come way down. I don't buy many because I'm not the type that needs a physical library so Netflix serves me well but the few I do own were all right around $20. All that said, I do love my 360!
I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.
