I'll buy PS3 for the 'same' reason I got PS2.
Console + DVD for ps2 (I didn't have a DVD-player)
Console + BlueRay for ps3.

..and I didn't like Xbox, nor Xbox360. The joystick and stuff isn't for me. But PS2 has been entertaining and I've liked it, so I'll stay loyal to the same company. I also have DS and PSP, I use DS more..just because it has 'smaller' games I can play while taking a shit. Like Wario touched. heh.
PSP is a lot better imho though.

You're buying a PS3 for blu-ray? Heh, that's one of the main reasons I hate Sony. Blu-ray is the Betamax of this decade. I kind of forgave Sony for the Betamax fiasco and bought a PSP with yet another proprietary game format - the UMD. That too has been a colossal flop. I wanted to be able to buy movies in UMD format and watch them while I am on the road. Now since UMD support is quickly dying, I have to rip my DVDs and put them on a memory card so I can watch them on the PSP.

VHS dominated Betamax because of the price vs benefit factor. Betamax offered better video quality but was too expensive for most consumers. Blu-ray is similar. It can hold substantially more data but when games for PS3 are going to cost around $90 a pop, I can't justify the cost. HD-DVD seems like a far more logical choice.

I do have to agree with you on the DS. It's my pooping platform of choice.
