I finally broke down and bought a PS3. It was a recertified 40gb model from Newegg for $224. I got it mainly for a blueray player. Also having a huge gift card for there helped. I also just bought Ridge Racer 7 since I'm a RR whore. There are some games coming out down the road that are for the PS3 only I want to pick up, like Ni no Kuni. (although there is a DS version as well but will be different)
