I have an HD TV.  The issue is this.  I need games to play starting late next week and for a month after that.

What I might do is see if I can borrow a PS2 for this month from a friend.  If I can do that, I wont have to pay for something that could later become debunked by the avaliablity of a BC PS3. 

It could go like this:

-Now:  Borrow PS2

-Christmas Holidays:  Play uber 360 line-up and some of the best looking Wii titles.

-Early to mid-next year:  Pick up a PS3 with full BC allowing me to play games I didn't get to in the coming month, play some of the medium quality PS3 titles that have gone past, and hopefully by then play GoW3 and Heavy Rain.

I don't know.  I'll try to borrow a PS2.  But if I can't I'll buy one, I cant have nothing to play in my holiday other than NG2.

Ahh, I thought this was a real post. I now realize it's a sly way to be a 360 fanboy troll. Good job, you had a lot of us going.

Make sure when you send off your hours to MS for your paycheck, you include this thread. It's bonus material.

By "medium quality" I didn't mean titles like GoW3/Heavy Rain/FFXIII.  I meant things that are already out that I'm interested in but wouldn't buy a system for.  R&C, HS etc.  Not MGS4 type titles, which I acknowledge are probably brilliant, but simply not a genre I'm interested in.

Cost is one of the keys here for me.  Thats why I want a BC PS3.  I don't want to pay for both systems.  I could pay full price for NG2, Too Human (towards the end of my break), Alone in the Dark etc.  But right now its far cheaper to buy a second hand PS2, and borrow some titles from friends while picking up old titles for $10-15.

If you'd read my post properly, you would have realized that I pointed too at least two massive, high-quality PS3 exclusives.

Edit:  You really have no faith in me at all huh?
