Well, I have decided after looking around, that I will not be buying a PS3...yet. At this point in time I cannot justify the purchase, so will wait for a price drop and see how my finances are at that time. I no longer care about The blu ray because I found a Sony bluray player for under $140 that supposedly up converts DVDs fairly well. But I also found the solution to my controller issue http://www.ps3daily.co.uk/20081222/xcm-cross-battle-adapter-xbox-360-controller-for-ps3/
Thanks for your earnest opinions though! They were very usefull in my decision making and I appreciate your input!
