buy a PS3, they are constantly updated the firmware on those, and eventually they'll support 3-D.
also, this gives you excuse to play PS3 games.

Yeah I'm not a sony guy but if I was going to buy a PS3 it would be for the Blu ray.

Sometime in 2012 or 2013, my decision not to do this and to get a regular blu-ray player instead is going to haunt me.
My lack of interest in PS3 games was a big reason why I made the decision though.

the PS3's ability to update firmware (for free) makes it the best Blu-Ray player period.

PS3 is awesome. They can also stream Netflix, as can 360 and Wii, but those don't play Blu-Rays.

See I actually have points at the place I work at so I could get about 150 bucks off a PS3. The one thing holding me back is at this point I only play sports games and I am not sure I would get much use out of the system. I was leaning towards just picking up a nice player on sale for about 70 bucks but by the sounds of it maybe I should get the PS3.

With the PS3 you can also set up a media center to watch those movies you have chosen to 'legally' download.

I think I am going to go for the PS3 just because the only Blu Ray player at my work is only 100 bucks cheaper than the PS3 (and I want to use the massive amount of points I have managed to put on my card through trickery). Probably won't actually pick up a game on the system for a while but I figure I will be able to use it for a while.

I think it's kind of funny that my Mad Men seasons 1-3 purchase has actually ended up making me spend a ton more money but I god damn do I want to drink whiskey with Don Draper while he appears to me in HD.

Except online play isn't quite as good. That's my only knock on the PS3, really.
Also, if you get a PS3 Gonzo you must buy the Uncharted 1 and 2. They are superb.
Bluray movies/tv shows look so damn amazing though. Usually I don't take notice of stuff like that but the sound and visual quality is unreal. I watched Star Trek on Bluray and it was breathtaking.

It's a pretty bad idea if you ask me. And wow these people like to make things so much harder for themselves.

I enjoyed Dexter a lot tonight. Great episode imo. No Batista-LaGuerta storyline is an instant win.
