Also keep in mind that the PS2 was successful enough to create "piggyback" purchases as its life cycle continued. I didn't buy one right away -- I had the PS1, bought a Dreamcast after buying an HDTV and wanting something higher-resolution to play on it, then a Gamecube, then a PS2. I left the PS2 alone at $299 when it was new, but later when it was $199 with a bunch of worthwhile Greatest Hits titles it would have been stupid NOT to buy one. I've had lots of great gaming on the PS2; even ran out and replaced it right away when I stupidly tried to use a PS1 multitap on it and fried the controller interface somehow.
I would like to have lots of great gaming on the PS3 someday, but right now it's the Wii for me and I'm waiting on one of the HD systems after the market settles out. Might be the 360, might be the PS3. The decision is certainly NOT a no-brainer at this point.
