I read a game analyst's take on it on Gamespot once, and she said something to the extent of "Sony is saying their system is the most powerful and has the most features, so it's the best and worth the money. But that's like saying a Porsche performs better than your car so you should go buy one. That doesn't change the fact you can't afford it." I think that's pretty true...The Ps3 will probably have lots of nice features...but in the end, the Wii will cost less and give me pretty much the same thing: games.

The whole Blu-Ray thing just confuses me. Sony is acting like if I don't have Blu-Ray I'll wither away and die, and I could care less about it.
This is how I feel. Sony is tooting it's horn on how it's a good deal for $600 but I'm trying to support a wife and kid and regardless of how much of a bargain it is I jsut don't have $600. My wife is a Nintendo freak(her and her damn Animal Crossing ) so I will be getting her the Wii.
