PS3?

Is the PS3 worth it? I'm actually looking into the PS3 Slim. I don't care if it doesn't have backwards compatibility, because I already have a PS2 xP.
Does this system overheat a lot? Also, do you have to pay for PSN? Sorry, I'm a noob x)

Worth it?: No, in my opinion, the selection of games suck. Overheats much?: I don't believe so, I've never seen any complaints on it overheating. PSN for free?: Yes. This is one of the reasons why the XBox 360 "sucks" compared to the PS3.
What I find for the biggest differences in the PS3 and 360, is that the 360 has more war games, and the PS3 has RPG/racing games. Sure, the PS3 is an effective blu-ray player, but getting movies off of Netflix onto your 360 is so much cheaper and easier. And then, the controllers. Play Station has not made a half decent controller YET. They haven't even put a second analog stick on the PSP. If it were me, I'd rather keep the money for something else. The PS3 is not even worth it's weight in scrap metal.

In terms of specs. the PS3 is the most powerful console on the market but in terms of games, there are some good titles, the 360 has more however. The PSN and online play are currently free but Sony are planning on a deluxe version which has to be paid for, I suspect this'll be Sony's equivalent to XBOX Live.

Thanks for the replies. I actually enjoy the PS3's controller, as it is similar to the PS2's. I am very used to that. Also, I am a big fan of racing games, and my brother loves RPGs. We aren't really aiming for Netflix, since my dad doesn't like it, so that is not a worry. It's cool the PSN is free too. Also, we have enough money for the PS3 slim.

Yea. Thanks. My brother wants a PS3 over an Xbox 360 anyway, and my dad is a fan of the blu-ray.

I have another question.. Is their an option to turn off PS3 voice chat for online games such as MW2, or Midnight Club? I don't want to hear people screaming, raging, swearing, etc etc.

I'm guessing there is, it should either be in the console settings or game settings. I'll around later to be sure.

It May Be Under Settings > Chat Settings or in the Game Options itself.

I checked the settings on my console and I didn't see anything, I've only been playing Fallout 3 recently (and that's single player) so I haven't confirmed the game settings. I don't know if this is simply due to firmware or if it's a mishap on Sony's part. I'll pop in a different game tonight, just for you I apologize for not being much help

CoD: MW2 doesn't have in-game mute options. You can mute people in the lobby, but one at a time and it turns off once the console does. Play Mercenary Team Death match, barely anyone talks on it, and the people that do can easily be muted.

Lol... again with this question. Is there an option to "turn off/lower voice volume" in the PS3 version in MW2? xD I heard you can.. but I'm not sure.
