Prophecy

High end things do cost money, but good things come to those who wait, and everything goes on sale. Personally, thus far I haven't seen one thing to make the PS3 worth $500 in my eyes. Also, the first round of a new console system always has bugs, with some systems being worse than others.

I'm sure everyone here will agree the big point of buying any console is for the games, the dvd player and other functions are nice but 90% of us already have those. The PS3 is going to be like any other system, with the really stellar games, i.e. the ones you buy and keep, coming out months after the after the system launches.

As for Blue-Ray a lot of people have already mentioned it's unproven and most games more than likely will not need that much space. Also, out of curiousity, does anyone know the price saved/lost in having one Blue-Ray disc vs. two PS2 DVDs? (I say two discs because as of this writting I don't know of any PS2 game using three DVDs for the actual game.)

So IF you can sit back and wait, I'm sure you'll be able to get a system with more bugs worked out than the launch version, a lower price point and better games.

However, in the end I guess it comes down to three types of people:
1) Those that have the money to spend and are willing to right away.
2) Those that have the money and are not willing to spend it right away
3)Those that don't have the money to spend.

I'm in the second group and happy about it. To those in the first group, when the time comes and some of you spend the day/night camping the stores to get your PS3s on launch day, just let me know.... Was it really worth the time, money and effort?
