EVENTUALLY plan on getting a PS3 (hopefully a 60GB unit for the most backwards compatibility) as my PS2 died awhile ago, and so many games are being neglected.

Also plan on getting:

PC Engine LT
PC Engine GT
Tubo Express

I want to get another Neo Geo CD system, since mine was pretty much DOA.

Eventually I want to get a newer PSP so that I can't hook it up to a TV.

When I finally get a bigger 1080p TV for the living room, I'm going to need a second BluRay player for the bedroom and it may very well be a second PS3.

Being that the PS3 is the world's best Blu-ray player (and by most accounts, the cheapest) it'd be crazy to get anything else.  But who knows... things may change by the time you get your TV.

There is already one here at Walmart for $100 less than the cheapest PS3. Now that BluRay is the standard, the players should continue to get cheaper. I don't need one that is fully featured, since it'll only be for casual viewing of BluRay and dvd videos.

It'd also be nice to have a flat, non-PS3 shaped player with a streamlined remote.

I'll probably just go with a regular Blu-ray player. Once the 360 is hacked I'll be getting that sucker for streaming in 1080p. The original xbox can apparently stream in 1080p, but I guess it's touch and go.

I have no problem's streaming HD content on my 360 even via wifi. Now my Xbox doesn't do 90% of the 720P videos I have let alone 1080P :lol: The 360 rox since that fall update. It's divx play back is damn near flawless and will play almost any file. Unlike the PS3 though it has since gotten a little better.

Your original Xbox doesn't stream 720p HD at all? Shit! My xbmc setup is wifi.  :(

If you do it will pay off in the end given how mvs is dirt cheap.

Not to mention how it pays itself off in the long run.

Yeah some people can be happy with a emu or some collection,but it doesn't beat the real deal.
