Ive been waiting a while to see what comes out on it and only now is it starting to catch my interest, games id buy would be stuff like Drakes Fortune, and Lego Indy, and probably the new Civ game, but is this enough to justify a rather expensive console?

"If Final Fantasy continues the tradition of most new Final Fantasy's then you can probably simulate it just as well by listening to the Star Wars soundtrack while huffing nitrous-oxide and reading an excel spreadsheet"

It's not so much the cost of Blu Ray players, but the abilities. Most of the cheaper ones won't have very good upgradability or ethernet ports, where as the PS3 is the most up-to-date and this matters if you're at all interested in extras or downloadable content.
I'd also argue that there are some good games out already and if you don't already have a 360 and prefer the titles on the PS3 there are certainly plenty of games to choose from.
If you have a 360, though, then things are slightly different as the majority of games on both platforms are multi-platform now (or will be soon) so it's just down to whether you want the few extra exclusive titles on the PS3 platform.

Perfect, I was struggling for a Wii one.
and the Wii is the VW Golf. Sensible, but fun.
Exactly! I'm shallow, so the PS3 is perfect for me :)
Plus I find the 360 a bit a child's toy, and I hate its menu system. Small details of course, but still.

So the PS3 is like a Mercedes Benz :overpriced,overrated,cost a fortune to own and while technically very impressive people who own them are generally very boring !!.
While the Xbox 360 is like a Mazda MX-5 which is of course the ultimate hairdressers car,rubbish performance and generally owned by girls (and blokes you probably wouldn't go out for a drink with !!).

My view in a car analogy:
Xbox 360 - A Mazada MX-5, fairly priced, every bloke with too much testosterone wants one. They work just great these days and are quite sporty in a straight line affair.
PS3 - Elegant, and bit more polished, and a tad pretencious, like a Mercedes-Benz. Yes it's a bit more expensive, but it's good investment. You feel the business if you own one, like you've bought something a bit more special.
